- Unlock Horoscope Insights with BaZi Advisor

by Master Wey, Ba Zi guide

This year is the Year of the Wood Dragon. What does that mean? Essentially, its Qi is the most powerful throughout the year, earning it the title of the Grand Duke. While these energies are incredibly strong and can be harnessed for great benefit, there's a risk of upsetting the Grand Duke if not shown proper respect. Because of this, beginners are advised to steer clear of these days.

I believe this can be a starting point for anyone trying to understand, from the perspective of Chinese metaphysics, what it really means to experience the influence of all the energies around us. These energies impact our lives to varying degrees.

In Chinese metaphysics, time is divided into unique units, each represented by a combination of a Heavenly Stem (polar element) and an Earthly Branch (animal). These pairs form Pillars, each underpinned by "Hidden Stems," which are the energetic roots of the Earthly Branches. 60 such pillars repeat cyclically in a fixed order. To find out more about it, see our article What Is Ba Zi and How Does It Work?

The Core Principles of Horoscope in BaZi Advisor

Each hour, day, month, year, or decade is assigned a pair consisting of a polar element - the Heavenly Stem - and an animal - the Earthly Branch. This pair is represented as a pillar, with the so-called Hidden Stems at its base, which are the energetic roots of each Earthly Branch. There are a total of 60 pillars that repeat in a cycle, always following the same order.

Our Destiny Chart is made up of the four pillars (hour, day, month, year) present at the time of our birth, making it highly unlikely to find two people with identical Destiny Charts, since there are 60 x 60 x 60 x 60 = 12,960,000 possibilities.

When it comes to a person's character or a pillar affected by a specific interaction, it's important to know that each pillar corresponds to certain aspects of that person, aspects that are available to you in the form of online help, as you can see below.

Understanding Interactions

There are specific interactions between the pillars in your Destiny Chart (DC) and also between each of these pillars and the pillars corresponding to the current hour, day, month, year, and decade. The article Heavenly Stems & Earthly Branches Interactions in Ba Zi discusses what these interactions mean and their effects. In this article, we'll focus on the temporary components, looking at what each hour and each day brings.

Since these interactions involve your personal DC, their effects are unique to you and not felt by others. There are also Auxiliary Stars specific to each of us, which manifest on certain days, with some having special effects under specific conditions. Analyzing all these interactions and conditions is very complex, but BaZi Advisor presents the analysis results as potential effects. This means everything should be interpreted as "it is possible that..." Knowing this allows you to at least minimize negative effects through appropriate actions or avoid making certain decisions altogether.

One of the secrets to success is doing the right thing at the right time and being in the right place. This horoscope can help you with that. As you might imagine, there are numerous interactions and stars at play at any given moment, sometimes with opposing effects. By following them daily, you'll soon start to notice how these energies affect you physically and mentally.

Personalized Effects and Auxiliary Stars

Additionally, to the interactions explained above, each person has specific Auxiliary Stars that manifest on certain days, with some having special effects under particular conditions.

In Ba Zi, the "Auxiliary Stars" designate certain energies (Qi bodies) associated with each Chinese zodiac sign. Sky Horse, Peach Blossom, Noble Man, Year Breaker, Cascading Clouds, and Red Chamber are just a few of them. We explain them in our article What are the Auxiliary Stars in Ba Zi?

For each person, the auxiliary stars are presented on the Profile Analysis page.

BaZi Advisor simplifies this complex analysis of different interactions and auxiliary stars, presenting the results as probable outcomes to help you make informed decisions.

Success often comes from doing the right thing at the right time. Understanding the potential influences allows you to leverage positive energies and mitigate negative ones. By following your BaZi Horoscope, you can align your actions with favorable times, maximizing your chances of success and well-being.

Advanced Analysis for Enthusiasts

For more advanced practitioners, there is an advanced display mode available, showing the conditions that caused certain effects. If you're passionate and follow our articles where we detail all these aspects, you'll definitely become one of them. You'll gain a deeper understanding of the secrets of the world around us. Your perspective will broaden, you'll become more confident in yourself, and more understanding of others, and this will surely make the world a little better, following the Creator's desire.

Components of BaZi Horoscope Analysis

The analysis done by BaZi Advisor for creating this horoscope takes into account the following aspects:

  • Your personal Destiny Chart,
  • Your unique Auxiliary Stars,
  • ZeRi and Tong Shu elements like Three Killings Days, Robbery Sha Days, Calamity Sha Days, Annual Sha Days, The 10 Ferocious and Big Disaster Days, Four Separating and Four Extinct Days, The 12 Day Officers, and The 28 Constellations
  • Interactions between your DC and the temporary pillars,
  • Interactions between the energies of the current hour and day with the energies of the current month and year.
  • The fulfillment of specific conditions that generate unique effects for each of you.

Feng Shui and Environmental Influences

Alongside the analysis on this horoscope page based on the aspects mentioned above, the feng shui page also provides an analysis of how the environment affects each of us. The energies of the environment manifest in proportion to the time spent in a particular place, which needs to be more than just a few days to be felt. You won't be significantly affected by the feng shui of a hotel room during your vacation beyond the immediate experiences and feelings you had while there. That's why it's important to only analyze your home and workplace. There are monthly and yearly stars that interact with these spaces, creating effects that shouldn't be ignored. It's recommended to track them regularly.
