性格Gui Hai personality
Gui Hai is the last of the sixty pillars: gentle water joining the great sea. These people are deep, intuitive and imaginative, often drawn to art, research or spiritual life. They are more independent than they look. Clear goals give their vast inner world a direction.
坐星Sitting on Rob Wealth (Rival)
You sit on a rival of your own element: competitive, bold and generous with friends, willing to take risks. Money and loyalty can get mixed up.
长生Life stage: Peak
Measured on the 12-phase cycle, 癸 on 亥 is at Peak: full strength: forceful, proud, hard to stop.
纳音Nayin: Water of the Great Sea
Each pair of pillars shares one of 30 Nayin, or "sound" elements. Gui Hai belongs to Water of the Great Sea, pictured as the great sea: vast, deep and hard to contain. Nayin is an older layer of Chinese astrology and is read as a background image, not as your Day Master's element.

In BaZi the day branch is the spouse palace. For Gui Hai it holds the Pig, which traditionally harmonises with the Tiger (six harmony) and the Rabbit and Goat (three harmony), and clashes with the Snake.
The most harmonious day pillar for Gui Hai is Wu Yin (戊寅): its stem combines with yours and its branch forms a six-harmony pair (天合地合). The most challenging are Ding Si (丁巳) and Ji Si (己巳): stem against stem and branch against branch (天克地冲). Other pillars in your chart matter more than this single pairing.
空亡Void branches
Gui Hai belongs to the Jia Yin (甲寅) decade (旬), whose void branches are Zi and Chou (子丑: Rat, Ox). Traditionally, years and months of these branches are said to make plans feel less solid. The next such years: 2032, 2033, 2044, 2045.
