The BaZi Ritual

Discover your element.

Enter what you know. With a birth time we cast all four pillars; without it we read the six known characters and test the full day for uncertainty.

Your name (optional)

Date of birth

Time of birth

I don't know my birth time

No birth time? We keep the hour pillar open, read the six known characters, and compare all 24 local-hour possibilities.

Birth city (most accurate — historical daylight saving is computed automatically)

Choose a city and we resolve its exact time zone for the year you were born. The classical standard is Beijing time; true-solar-time correction is not applied.

Gender (for the spirits & decade fortunes)

In classical practice, the shen sha spirits and the decade fortunes are read differently by gender. Without it, we show your pillars and elements only.

This chart is for a living person

For a historical figure or a research chart, uncheck this — the current decade is then shown as the classical record, not as “now”.

Your birth moment is converted to Beijing time, the classical standard of BaZi. Nothing leaves this device unless you request a written reading — see our privacy note.

Your Pillars · 四柱 / 六字

Your known pillars are shown as facts. If the hour is unknown, it remains visibly open and is never replaced with a guessed pillar.

This reading follows the cultural tradition of BaZi as reflection and cultural exploration. It is not medical, financial, legal or psychological advice, and it makes no guarantees about the future. Treat every statement as a prompt to examine—not an instruction to obey.
