Yang Metal Monkey year · Yang Earth Tiger month
Your month sharpens what your year provided. Metal draws from Earth — precision emerging from raw material.
Both pillars push outward. Direct energy. Visible ambition. What you carry and what you were born into both face the world head-on.
Your year branch (申 · Monkey) carries: 庚 Metal · 壬 Water · 戊 Earth. Your month branch (寅 · Tiger) carries: 甲 Wood · 丙 Fire · 戊 Earth. These hidden elements create a deeper layer of interaction beneath the two visible stems — currents that shape how the year-month relationship actually plays out in your life.

Your Day Pillar is the one that defines who you actually are. The year is your generation. The month is your environment. The day is you. And you need your exact birthday to see it.
The Hour Pillar reveals how you express it — your inner world, your legacy, the part of you only the people closest to you ever see. Both require your exact birth date and time.
