Peers: friend and rob wealth
A stem of the same element as the day master is a peer. Matching polarity is the friend. Differing polarity is rob wealth. That is the same element standing beside the day master. It is not a list of friends.

Friend and rob wealth are two sides of the same element
Both match the day master. Rob wealth sounds like a contest. On the chart it is still the same element with the other polarity. Do not let the name frighten you.
When wealth is also there, write both
Tradition says peers share or contest wealth. Still name where wealth sits, where the peer sits, and which weight is heavier. If there is no wealth character, do not start with a contest over money.
Rob wealth visible
Illustration: the day master is Jia and another stem is Yi. Both are wood, the polarities differ, so Yi is rob wealth. You can say the other face of the same element is showing. It is not “a partnership fails” or “siblings come to divide the money.”
Common mistakes
- Hearing rob wealth as a theft that will occur.
- Hearing the friend star as a helpful person already named.
- Discussing a fight over wealth when no wealth character is on the chart.

Frequently asked questions
Do many peers mean many siblings?
It is not a head count. It is how many characters match the day master’s element, and how heavy they are.
Is the day master itself a friend star?
The day master is the reference. It is not counted again as a peer. Peers are the other characters.
How is hidden rob wealth weighted?
By the qi layer it sits in: 1, 0.5, or 0.3. No extra weight is invented.
