Day pillar
The Day Pillar explains who the chart is really about
Most users search for a BaZi calculator, but the real reading starts with the Day Master. It tells the system how to judge wealth, career, relationship, health, and timing.
Day Stem
The visible self: your basic element, temperament, and decision style.
Day Branch
The inner seat: relationship palace, emotional habits, and private needs.
Ten Gods
The role system that turns stems into career, money, partner, authority, and talent signals.
Birth hour
Birth hour changes the Hour Pillar
The Hour Pillar affects later life, children, ambition, and hidden potential. The homepage only previews the concept; the real input step remains in the guided flow.

Stem structure
Stem and element patterns make the chart readable

Wood
Growth, strategy, expansion, initiative, and planning energy.
Fire
Visibility, output, charisma, expression, and momentum.
Earth
Stability, storage, responsibility, support, and structure.
Metal
Rules, precision, execution, discipline, and judgment.
Water
Flow, learning, communication, adaptation, and intelligence.

Start age
Da Yun starts at a calculated age, not always at birth
Da Yun is the 10-year luck cycle that gives each life stage its main weather. A good report should explain where you are now, which years are worth pushing, and which years require protection.
Da Yun vs luck year
Da Yun gives the decade. Luck year gives the event window.
For pricing and product value, Da Yun is the deeper report because it explains a full life stage. Annual fortune is ideal for a specific year's choices, risks, and timing.

FAQ
Is the free BaZi reading really free?
Yes. The free path shows the chart overview and Day Master reading before any paid upgrade.
Why do you ask for birth city?
BaZi is based on local solar time. City selection helps calculate true solar time and hemisphere rules.
What do paid reports add?
Paid reports add complete natal reading, luck cycle, annual fortune, and deeper topic-specific analysis.
Can I save more than one chart?
Yes. Monthly members can manage 3 chart owners, and annual members can manage up to 10 chart owners.
What is the difference between Da Yun and luck year?
Da Yun explains the 10-year life cycle. Luck year explains the specific opportunities, pressure, and timing inside one year.
Can I use the calculator if I do not know my exact birth time?
Yes. You can start with an approximate time or skip city precision, then update the chart later when you have better birth records.
