Get your daily season
A short morning reading on what to lean into and what to go easy on, read from your chart and the day’s energy.
Meet the archetypes
Ten core essences. Everyone has one at the centre of their chart.
The Steadfast Pillar
Unwavering conviction and principled leadership — deep moral roots, whose shadow is rigidity under pressure.
The Resilient Weaver
Ultimate adaptability and connection — cut down to the root, only to quietly bloom again.
The Luminary
Boundless generosity and warmth — charismatic and giving, with anger that flares and fades like a solar storm.
The Alchemist's Flame
Intense, transformative focus — turning raw experience into art or wisdom, but holding onto old embers.
The Silent Sentinel
Absolute stoicism and trust — an unmoving mountain that risks a quiet avalanche of buried feeling.
The Nurturing Garden
Unconditional empathy and care — fertile soil for others to grow in, if its own boundaries can hold.
The Arbiter's Blade
Justice, endurance, and raw execution — decisive and honest, learning the grace of gentleness.
The Refined Artisan
Aesthetic perfection and sharp intellect — elegant and exacting, sensitive to criticism.
The Boundless Tide
Extroverted curiosity and restless freedom — visionary and adaptable, wary of stagnation.
The Pervasive Mist
Ultimate intuition and unseen currents — a mystic prone to overthinking and quiet alienation.
Same chart, two ways to read it.
Inner Constellation
The Resilient Weaver
You tend to find a way around obstacles rather than through them, and to recover quickly.
Classic
Day Master (日主) Yi Wood — the classical pillars, Ten Gods and hidden stems, each explained in one line the first time it appears.
Your Daily Season
A short reading each morning: what today tends to reward for you, what to go easy on, and why — in one line.
