- Annual stem to Day Master
- 偏印 Indirect ResourceFire generates the Day Master; the polarities are same.
How the annual Horse meets your natal branches
A shared three-branch group is named as a shared group; two branches alone do not complete the full group.
Visible phase balance
What this chart is made of
Each pillar carries a phase in its stem and another in its branch. The 6 visible characters below are the first layer a reading compares with the Day Master.
- Wood0 / 6
Not present in the visible chart
- Fire1 / 6
generates the Day Master
- Earth4 / 6
same phase as the Day Master
- Metal0 / 6
Not present in the visible chart
- Water1 / 6
is controlled by the Day Master
Wood and Metal do not appear in these 6 visible characters. Absence here is a chart fact, not an automatic good-or-bad verdict, though with no birth time this count runs over six characters instead of eight, so an absence here is a weaker observation than it would be with the hour pillar.
