Your month fuels back into your year. Fire draws from Wood — the month's intensity pulls energy from your generational roots.

Inner depth, outer expression. What you carry inside becomes what you build outside. The quiet generation producing the visible month.

Hidden Stems

Your year branch (酉 · Rooster) carries: 辛 Metal. Your month branch (辰 · Dragon) carries: 戊 Earth · 乙 Wood · 癸 Water. 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.

Nayin · 山下火

Fire Beneath the Mountain — internal heat. The volcano before eruption. Energy building underground, not yet visible to the surface world. Read more about Fire Beneath the Mountain →

Note: BaZi months follow the solar terms (節氣), not the Gregorian calendar. Boundaries shift by 1–2 days each year. If you were born near the start or end of a month, your actual pillars may differ. Enter your exact birth date below — the calculator handles the solar calendar precisely.

What's missing

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.
