In short

Angelica Lee’s day master is Yang Wood: the Great Tree.

Upright and caring: wants to do some good in the world. The day master comes from the day of birth alone; about one person in ten shares it.

What the labels mean

Each pillar is two characters: a stem on top (an element, yin or yang) and a branch below (one of the twelve zodiac animals). The day stem is the day master — the person. The label above each other stem is its ten god (Shi Shen, 十神): what that element is to the day master.

Each animal also hides stems of its own, strongest first: the Rabbit hides Yin Wood (乙, Rob Wealth); the Ox hides Yin Earth (己, Direct Wealth), Yin Water (癸, Direct Resource), Yin Metal (辛, Direct Officer); the Dog hides Yang Earth (戊, Indirect Wealth), Yin Metal (辛, Direct Officer), Yin Fire (丁, Hurting Officer).

Rob Wealth (Jie Cai, 劫财)
Same element, opposite polarity. A peer who takes rather than shares — the tradition reads it as what draws on your resources through people close to you.
Direct Wealth (Zheng Cai, 正财)
What you control, opposite polarity. Wealth held steadily — earned, kept, accounted for.
Direct Resource (Zheng Yin, 正印)
What produces you, opposite polarity. Straightforward support: what teaches, shelters and backs you.
Direct Officer (Zheng Guan, 正官)
What controls you, opposite polarity. Authority in its orderly form: office, rule, the structure you fit into.
Indirect Wealth (Pian Cai, 偏财)
What you control, same polarity. Wealth that comes sideways rather than by salary — the uneven kind.
Hurting Officer (Shang Guan, 伤官)
What you produce, opposite polarity. Output with an edge on it. The name means it injures the Direct Officer (正官), which is why the tradition reads it as talent that does not sit well with authority.

Day master

甲 The Great Tree Yang Wood (Jia)
What the classic Di Tian Sui (滴天髓) says of this stem, word for word

Yang Wood (甲) reaches to heaven: to shed its husk it wants Fire; in spring it will not tolerate Metal, in autumn it will not tolerate Earth. With Fire blazing it rides the dragon; with Water flooding it straddles the tiger. Ground moist and heaven mild, it stands planted a thousand years.

甲木参天,脱胎要火,春不容金,秋不容土,火炽乘龙,水宕骑虎,地润天和,植立千古。

Born in an Ox month (Chou, 丑), when Earth rules the season. In that season Yang Wood is imprisoned (Qiu, 囚): held down by what the season produces. (One of five seasonal states, Wang Xiang Xiu Qiu Si, 旺相休囚死, after the San Ming Tong Hui, 三命通會, book 2.)

Day pillar: Wood Dog (Jia Xu, 甲戌)

The classic San Ming Tong Hui (三命通会) gives each of the sixty day pillars an image, its sound element (Na Yin, 纳音). For this one it is Fire on the Mountain (山头火), and it says:

Where fire lodges; likes spring and summer.

The original Chinese

火所宿处,喜春及夏

This is what the book says of every Jia Xu day, not of Angelica Lee. The Jia Xu day pillar › (what the classic says at each birth hour, what the branch holds, and others born on one)

Elements in the six known characters

木 Wood × 3 火 Fire × 0 土 Earth × 3 金 Metal × 0 水 Water × 0

None of the six is Fire, Metal, Water. The hour pillar’s two characters may supply it or may not — that depends on the hour. Hidden stems are not counted here.

All twelve hours, cast one by one

Of the twelve hours, 2 read strong and 10 weak (strong: the Rat, Pig hours). Strength, and the useful element that follows from it, depend on the hour — the date alone cannot settle them.

Rat (子) 00–01 甲子Wood Rat Friend (比肩) out of season rooted backed strong Fire, Earth, Metal

Dog (戌) 19–21 甲戌Wood Dog Friend (比肩) out of season rooted outnumbered weak Water, Wood
Pig (亥) 21–23 乙亥Wood Pig Rob Wealth (劫财) out of season rooted backed strong Fire, Earth, Metal

Each row is exactly what the full calculator would say for a birth in that hour. Strength comes from three tests: in season (De Ling, 得令) — born in the season of the day master’s own element; rooted (De Di, 得地) — the same element hidden in a branch; backed (De Shi, 得势) — as much support around it as drain. Two of three reads strong. The favoured elements come from support and restrain (Fu Yi, 扶抑): a strong day master wants draining, a weak one wants support. There are three other methods for the useful element — climate (Tiao Hou, 调候), bridging (Tong Guan, 通關) and disease and cure (Bing Yao, 病藥) — each from its own text; see the useful god page. Hours are solar time at the birthplace, so a clock time needs correcting first; and a birth after 23:00 falls in the late Rat hour, where the two schools disagree about whether the day has turned.

Angelica Lee’s bone weight (Cheng Gu, 称骨)

Lunar date: day 23 of the 12th month, Wood Rabbit year (乙卯年腊月廿三). Its weights: year 0.8 liang, month 0.5 liang, day 0.8 liang — 2.1 liang before the hour. Over the twelve hours that makes 2.7 liang to 3.7 liang.

Rat (子) 3.7 liang Ox (丑) 2.7 liang Tiger (寅) 2.8 liang Rabbit (卯) 3.1 liang Dragon (辰) 3.0 liang Snake (巳) 3.7 liang Horse (午) 3.1 liang Goat (未) 2.9 liang Monkey (申) 2.9 liang Rooster (酉) 3.0 liang Dog (戌) 2.7 liang Pig (亥) 2.7 liang

Bone weighing is a folk almanac sum over the calendar positions of the year, month, day and hour — not the elements, and not the chart above. How heavy is heavy? The tables and the spread ›

And yours?

You have your own birth time, so your chart needs no table of twelve — all four pillars, corrected to true solar time with the timezone actually in force where and when you were born.

About this page

This page computes; it does not interpret. The birth date is public and its source is linked; the birth time is not, so the hour pillar and everything that depends on it are set out all twelve ways.

Nothing here claims that anyone is who they are because of a chart, and nothing here forecasts years, health or lifespan for anyone living.
