性格Yi Mao personality

Yi Mao is soft wood on soft wood, a spring meadow that spreads everywhere. These people look gentle but are remarkably persistent, sociable and adaptable. They build networks naturally. They can be competitive in quiet ways, and do best among people they trust.

坐星Sitting on Companion (Friend)

You sit on your own element: self-reliant, sure of your own path, happiest with equals rather than bosses. The flip side is reluctance to compromise.

长生Life stage: Prosperity (Lu)

Measured on the 12-phase cycle, 乙 on 卯 is at Prosperity (Lu): standing on your own feet: capable, self-made, hard-working.

纳音Nayin: Water of the Great Stream

Each pair of pillars shares one of 30 Nayin, or "sound" elements. Yi Mao belongs to Water of the Great Stream, pictured as a great stream: lively water that keeps moving. 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 Yi Mao it holds the Rabbit, which traditionally harmonises with the Dog (six harmony) and the Goat and Pig (three harmony), and clashes with the Rooster.

The most harmonious day pillar for Yi Mao is Geng Xu (庚戌): its stem combines with yours and its branch forms a six-harmony pair (天合地合). The most challenging are Ji You (己酉) and Xin You (辛酉): 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

Yi Mao 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.

日期When does Yi Mao come round?
