癸水至弱,達於天津。得龍而運,功化斯神。不愁火土,不論庚辛。合戊見火,化象斯真。

What it is
Gui is the weakest water, yet the verse says it reaches as far as the ford of heaven. With the loong, 辰, it moves and transforms.
In a chart
If this is the stem of your day pillar, it is your Day Master, and the rest of the chart is read against it.
Relations
癸 Gui combines with 戊 Wu, turning to Fire. It clashes with 丁 Ding.
