Ba-Zi (八字), also known as the Four Pillars of Destiny, is one of the most powerful systems of Chinese astrology. Unlike Western astrology which uses 12 zodiac signs based on months, Ba-Zi uses your exact date and time of birth to create a detailed energetic blueprint of your life.
The term Ba-Zi literally means Eight Characters — four pillars (Year, Month, Day, Hour) each containing two characters (one Heavenly Stem, one Earthly Branch). Together, they encode the five elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water) present at the moment of your birth.
