Four Pillars (Saju)

Read your natal chart and the balance of the Five Elements from your year, month, day and hour of birth.

Saju (Four Pillars) writes your birth year, month, day, and hour as eight characters of heavenly stems and earthly branches, then reads your innate temperament and the flow of fortune through the balance of the Five Elements. maiunse builds the chart on a verified lunisolar calendar and unfolds it step by step: element strength including hidden stems, strong/weak day master and the useful element, Ten Gods distribution, and the great, yearly, and monthly luck cycles.

How it works

Enter your birth year, month, day, and hour and we build the eight characters of your Four Pillars from the traditional almanac. Lunar birthdays and solar-term boundaries are handled, and if you don't know your birth hour we read the remaining three pillars.

What you'll get

You see the balance of the five elements around your Day Master, whether the chart runs strong or weak, its useful and helpful elements, the Ten Gods and chart structure, the Twelve Stages and special stars, and the flow of great, yearly, and monthly luck.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I still read my chart without knowing my birth hour?

Yes. Without the hour we drop the hour pillar and read the year, month, and day pillars. The Day Master reading, the balance of the five elements, and the flow of great luck all still appear — only what depends on the hour is left out.

Can I enter a lunar birthday?

Yes. Choose lunar on the form and it is converted to the solar calendar with a traditional almanac, then the month pillar is set by the solar terms. Leap months are handled too.
