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 Dragon hides Yang Earth (戊, Direct Resource), Yin Wood (乙, Indirect Wealth), Yin Water (癸, Eating God); the Rooster hides Yin Metal (辛, Friend); the Rabbit hides Yin Wood (乙, Indirect Wealth).
- Direct Officer (Zheng Guan, 正官)
- What controls you, opposite polarity. Authority in its orderly form: office, rule, the structure you fit into.
- Direct Resource (Zheng Yin, 正印)
- What produces you, opposite polarity. Straightforward support: what teaches, shelters and backs you.
- Indirect Wealth (Pian Cai, 偏财)
- What you control, same polarity. Wealth that comes sideways rather than by salary — the uneven kind.
- Eating God (Shi Shen, 食神)
- What you produce, same polarity. Output that comes easily: making, feeding, expressing, without strain.
- Seven Killings (Qi Sha, 七杀)
- What controls you, same polarity. Pressure with nothing softening it: demand, risk, and whatever you answer to whether you chose it or not.
- Friend (Bi Jian, 比肩)
- Same element, same polarity as you. A peer: someone standing where you stand, competing for the same thing and equally able to share the load.
Day master
What the classic Di Tian Sui (滴天髓) says of this stem, word for word
Yin Metal (辛) is soft and weak, warm, moist and clear. It dreads Earth piled on it and delights in Water in fullness. It can prop up the altars of state and can rescue living souls. In heat it likes its mother; in cold it likes Yin Fire (丁).
辛金软弱，温润而清，畏土之叠，乐水之盈，能扶社稷，能救生灵，热则喜母，寒则喜丁。
Born in a Rooster month (You, 酉), when Metal rules the season. In that season Yin Metal is thriving (Wang, 旺): the season is its own. (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: Metal Rabbit (Xin Mao, 辛卯)
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 Pine and Cypress Wood (松柏木), and it says:
The roots of pine and cypress; likes Water and Earth, and suits spring.
The original Chinese
松柏之根，喜水土及宜春
This is what the book says of every Xin Mao day, not of Barbie Hsu. The Xin Mao 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
None of the six is 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
In all twelve hours the Yin Metal day master reads strong. Whatever the hour, the support-and-restrain method favours Water, Wood, Fire — the date alone settles it.

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.
Barbie Hsu’s bone weight (Cheng Gu, 称骨)
Lunar date: day 13 of the leap 8th month, Fire Dragon year (丙辰年闰八月十三). Its weights: year 0.8 liang, month 1.5 liang, day 0.8 liang — 3.1 liang before the hour. Over the twelve hours that makes 3.7 liang to 4.7 liang.
Born in a leap month, weighed as the month it is named after; taking the month after instead moves every total by 0.3 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.
Your own 2027, month by month
The full report reads 2027 month by month from your own birth date, time and place.
