性格Yi Wei personality
Yi Wei is a flowering plant in hot summer soil, tougher than it looks. These people are practical, caring and resilient, often responsible for others from a young age. They are good with money and daily life. They can become anxious when things feel out of control.

Measured on the 12-phase cycle, 乙 on 未 is at Nurture: being nurtured: gentle, supported by family, steady development.
纳音Nayin: Gold in the Sand
Each pair of pillars shares one of 30 Nayin, or "sound" elements. Yi Wei belongs to Gold in the Sand, pictured as gold in the sand: worth that must be sifted out with patience. 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 Yi Wei it holds the Goat, which traditionally harmonises with the Horse (six harmony) and the Pig and Rabbit (three harmony), and clashes with the Ox.
The most harmonious day pillar for Yi Wei is Geng Wu (庚午): its stem combines with yours and its branch forms a six-harmony pair (天合地合). The most challenging are Ji Chou (己丑) and Xin Chou (辛丑): 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 Wei belongs to the Jia Wu (甲午) decade (旬), whose void branches are Chen and Si (辰巳: Dragon, Snake). Traditionally, years and months of these branches are said to make plans feel less solid. The next such years: 2036, 2037, 2048, 2049.
日期When does Yi Wei come round?
As a day: the 60-day cycle repeats every 60 days. Next Yi Wei days: Nov 17, 2026 · Jan 16, 2027 · Mar 17, 2027 · May 16, 2027. As a year pillar: 1955, 2015.
