Yin Wood Rooster year · Yang Wood Monkey month
Year and month share Wood. Concentration of growth energy. What you were born into is what you carry forward — roots compounding roots. Direction is singular.
Inner depth, outer expression. What you carry inside becomes what you build outside. The quiet generation producing the visible month.
Your year branch (酉 · Rooster) carries: 辛 Metal. Your month branch (申 · Monkey) carries: 庚 Metal · 壬 Water · 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.
Your Day Pillar — the one that defines who you actually are — needs your exact birthday.
