City information provides time context. Solar-time offsets are a reference, not a guarantee of a correct hour pillar. Time zones and historical clock changes need independent checking.

Tell AI your birth moment
Enter your birth date, time, calendar and city as accurately as possible. Check time zone and historical daylight-saving details; a solar-time reference does not guarantee a correct chart.

Generate
AI generates a Bazi interpretation
First, a deterministic engine computes your exact chart locally — pillars, hidden stems, ten gods, major cycles. Then a language model interprets that chart. The numbers are calculated, not guessed; the meaning is AI-generated.

The four pillars
Year · Month · Day · Hour — your four anchors in time
A traditional Bazi chart has four pillars, each with a heavenly stem and earthly branch. The meanings below are cultural symbolism, not proven facts about your life.
月Career & parents
Month Pillar (月柱)
Traditional symbolism: The most weighted pillar in classical bazi. Governs career path, social standing, and your relationship with parents. The month branch (月支) sets your seasonal element — the foundation of your luck reading.
日Day master · Spouse
Day Pillar (日柱)
Traditional symbolism: The day stem (日干) is your day master — the "you" the entire chart revolves around. The day branch (日支) is your spouse palace and inner self.
时Children & late life
Hour Pillar (时柱)
Traditionally associated with children, creative output and later life. These are symbolic themes, not predictions of family circumstances or future luck.
The five elements
Wood · Fire · Earth · Metal · Water — the engine of your chart
Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water are symbolic categories in Bazi. AI may discuss balance and useful elements, but this is neither validated calculation nor a prescription for life.
Wood (木)
Traditionally symbolizes growth, ambition and vision; not a personality assessment.
Fire (火)
Traditionally symbolizes passion, expression and ritual; not a health assessment.
Earth (土)
Traditionally symbolizes stability and trust; not a prediction of property or wealth.
Metal (金)
Traditionally symbolizes discipline, justice and refinement; not a personality assessment.
Water (水)
Traditionally symbolizes wisdom, flow and intuition; not evidence of personal abilities.
The ten gods
Understanding the ten gods in Bazi
The ten gods describe symbolic relationships to the day master: peers, output, wealth, authority and resources. They do not scientifically determine personality or life outcomes.
Friend & Rob Wealth (比肩 / 劫财)
Traditional symbolism: Same element as your day master. Allies, siblings, partners — and the cost of competition.
Output & Eating God (食神 / 伤官)
Traditional symbolism: What your day master produces. Creativity, children, talent — and how visible you make it.
Wealth (正财 / 偏财)
Traditional symbolism: What your day master controls. Income, possessions, the spouse for a male chart.
Officer & Seven Killings (正官 / 七杀)
Traditional symbolism: What controls your day master. Career authority, rules, the spouse for a female chart, and the discipline you struggle against.
Resource (正印 / 偏印)
Traditional symbolism: What feeds your day master. Mother, learning, support — and dependence when overdone.
The ten gods describe symbolic relationships to the day master: peers, output, wealth, authority and resources. They do not scientifically determine personality or life outcomes.
Why AI for bazi
Explore Bazi with a language model
Your chart is computed by a deterministic calendar engine — the same class of calculation traditional masters rely on. A language model then interprets the chart. The math is exact; the meaning is AI-generated entertainment.
- / 01
Exact calculation, honest about meaning
Pillars, hidden stems, ten gods and major cycles are calculated locally, not guessed by AI. The interpretation layer is still language-model output — cultural entertainment, not validated life advice.
- / 02
Traditional concepts, not verified citations
The prompt uses Bazi concepts. Generated references to classical texts may be incomplete or incorrect and should be checked independently.
- / 03
Honest about what bazi can not do
For entertainment only. Bazi does not scientifically establish personality or predict health, wealth, relationships or events. Do not use it for medical, financial or major life decisions.
- / 04
Understand birth-data storage
Birth inputs are sent to a third-party language model and saved in generation-task metadata. Reports are stored for retrieval. Closing the page does not delete them. There is no fixed automatic deletion period; request deletion through the Privacy page contact.
Frequently asked questions
Is AI bazi accurate?
The chart itself is exact: pillars, hidden stems, ten gods and major cycles come from a deterministic calendar engine, not from the language model. The interpretation layer is AI-generated and is for entertainment, not scientific personality assessment or prediction.
What is bazi in plain English?
Bazi (八字) means "eight characters" — your birth year, month, day and hour each get one heavenly stem and one earthly branch, totalling eight characters. Together they form your "four pillars of destiny" (四柱命理), the core chart of Chinese astrology.
Do I need to know my exact birth time for AI bazi?
Birth time determines the hour pillar. If you do not know it, leave the time blank: the engine still computes your year, month and day pillars exactly, and lists all 12 possible hour pillars derived by the Five Rats method — your true hour pillar is one of them.
How is AI bazi different from a Western horoscope?
Bazi uses stems, branches, ten gods and five elements, while Western astrology uses zodiac signs and planetary positions. Both are cultural traditions, not scientific ways to establish personality or predict events.
Can AI bazi predict my future?
No. Decade luck and annual cycles are traditional symbolism, not reliable forecasts of health, wealth or events. Treat generated predictions as entertainment, not a basis for decisions.
What is a "day master" in bazi?
The day master is the heavenly stem of the day pillar, one of ten yin-yang forms of the five elements. It is a reference point in traditional Bazi; AI-generated chart details need independent checking.
How are my birth details handled?
Birth inputs are sent to a third-party language model and saved in generation-task metadata. Reports are stored for retrieval. Closing the page does not delete them. There is no fixed automatic deletion period; request deletion through the Privacy page contact.
What languages does AI bazi support?
Six languages: English, simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Brazilian Portuguese. AI terminology and translations can vary and may need checking.
How many credits does an AI bazi reading cost?
Each report consumes the displayed — credits. After signup, you can apply to claim 50 free credits once, subject to the daily claim limit. They are not automatic and are not enough for a full report.
Is AI bazi superstition, or a real calculation?
It helps to separate two layers. The chart itself is computed from your birth data: pillars, hidden stems, ten gods and major cycles come from a deterministic calendar engine, not the language model — you can build it free. The interpretation written on top is AI-generated within the BaZi tradition. The calculation is exact; the meaning is cultural interpretation, for entertainment only.
