Each pair of pillars shares one of 30 Nayin, or "sound" elements. Wu Wu belongs to Fire in the Sky, pictured as fire in the sky: the sun itself, open and generous. Nayin is an older layer of Chinese astrology and is read as a background image, not as your Day Master's element.

婚恋Love and the spouse palace

In BaZi the day branch is the spouse palace. For Wu Wu it holds the Horse, which traditionally harmonises with the Goat (six harmony) and the Dog and Tiger (three harmony), and clashes with the Rat.

The most harmonious day pillar for Wu Wu is Gui Wei (癸未): its stem combines with yours and its branch forms a six-harmony pair (天合地合). The most challenging are Jia Zi (甲子) and Ren Zi (壬子): stem against stem and branch against branch (天克地冲). Other pillars in your chart matter more than this single pairing.

Wu Wu 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.
