Start with your Day Master and chart relationships

Your shown Day Master is 丙 Bing, Yang Fire. It is the day stem against which the chart names other stems. Without a birth time, a 23:00–23:59 birth may move the day pillar under this site's late-Rat convention.

  • Year stem 甲 Jia: Indirect Resource because Wood generates the Day Master's Fire, with matching polarity.
  • Month stem 丙 Bing: Friend because Fire matches the Day Master's Fire, with matching polarity.

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.
