Every number below was produced by the same engine that runs in the app — none of it was written to look good. Enter your own birth date and this is the shape of what you get.
The sample chart
| Birth date | 30 March 1984 |
| Birth hour | not provided → hour pillar left blank, never invented |
| Year pillar | 甲子 |
| Month pillar | 丁卯 |
| Day pillar | 癸亥 |
| Hour pillar | unknown |
| Day master | 癸 yin water |
| Wealth stems | 丁 indirect · 丙 direct (wealth element: fire) |
| Natal branches | 子 (year) · 卯 (month) · 亥 (day) |
Note that 亥 (day) and 卯 (month) already occupy two of the three seats in the 亥卯未 wood group. So any 未 day completes it — which is where the high scores below come from.
Wealth days in 2026
After scanning the full year, 42 days reach the 100-point threshold: 6 exceptional 6 strong 30 good. The rest either fall short or hit this chart's four vetoed day branches — 巳 clashes the day branch 亥, 酉 clashes the month branch 卯, 子 punishes 卯, and 亥 self-punishes against 亥.
| Date | Day pillar | Type | Score | Band | Golden hour |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-02-02 | 丁未 | Indirect | 180 | exceptional | 丁未 13:00–15:00 |
| 2026-04-03 | 丁未 | Indirect | 180 | exceptional | 丁未 13:00–15:00 |
| 2026-06-02 | 丁未 | Indirect | 180 | exceptional | 丁未 13:00–15:00 |
| 2026-02-22 | 丁卯 | Indirect | 130 | strong | 丁未 13:00–15:00 |
| 2026-02-21 | 丙寅 | Direct | 125 | good | 甲午 11:00–13:00 |
The other three 180-point days are 2026-08-01, 2026-09-30 and 2026-11-29 — also 丁未. The sexagenary cycle repeats every 60 days, so the single best day pillar comes round roughly six times a year.
Why 2026-02-02 scores 180
| Module | Rule | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Wealth stem | Indirect wealth day (丁) — 癸 water controls fire, same polarity | +50 |
| Branch bonus | Three-harmony wood — day branch 未 completes the natal 亥 (day) and 卯 (month) | +50 |
| Veto check | 未 neither clashes nor punishes 亥 or 卯 — passes | — |
| Golden hour | 丁未 hour: full three-harmony wood (+50) and indirect wealth in the hour stem 丁 (+30) | +80 |
| Total | exceptional label 博彩投機 speculation | 180 |
The 五鼠遁 rule starts a 丁 day at the 庚子 hour; counting to 未 lands on 丁未 — indirect wealth in the stem and the missing three-harmony branch, so that single hour fires two rules for 80 points. The ceiling is 190 (one more hour rule, wealth element in the hour branch, +10), but 未 is earth rather than fire, so this day caps at 180.
Purpose sample: opening a business in 2026
Same chart, purpose switched to “open a business”. After the almanac gate, the personal clash veto, and the 100-point qualifying line, 46 days remain in 2026, and the best score is 150 — which is also the ceiling for purpose dates.
| Item | Detail | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Date | 2026-04-03 · day pillar 丁未 | — |
| Almanac | 宜 contains 開市; 忌 does not | +50 |
| Branch bonus | Three-harmony wood (未 + 亥卯) | +50 |
| Golden hour | 癸卯 05:00–07:00: full three-harmony wood | +50 |
| Total | strong | 150 |
150 is a perfect score for a purpose date. The golden hour counts harmony only (max +50) with no wealth or bridge points, so a purpose list can never reach “exceptional” (160). Treat “strong” as the top of that list, and do not compare it against the 180 above — different rulers.
Compatibility sample: hiring a helper
A two-person household: me (1984-03-30, 癸亥 day, 子 year) and my wife (1984-09-14, 辛亥 day, 子 year). Three candidates — names are fictional and the birth dates are sample data, but the scores are really computed. The overall figure is the weighted mean with my own score counted twice.
| Rank | Candidate | Day pillar / year branch | Overall | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Maria (1997-02-05) | 戊寅 / 丑 | 87 | excellent match |
| 2 | Yanti (1988-03-25) | 己卯 / 辰 | 70 | compatible |
| 3 | Rosa (1988-06-07) | 癸巳 / 辰 | 36 | incompatible ⚠ hard clash |
Expanding the top candidate, member by member
| Member | Rules that fired | Score | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Me (weight ×2) | Base 50 · day six-harmony 寅亥 +20 · stem combination 戊癸 +15 · year six-harmony 子丑 +10 · they control me (earth over water) −8 | 87 | excellent |
| Wife (weight ×1) | Base 50 · day six-harmony 寅亥 +20 · year six-harmony 子丑 +10 · they generate me (earth generates metal) +8 | 88 | excellent |
| Weighted mean | (87 × 2 + 88) ÷ 3 | 87 | excellent match |
The same 寅亥 six-harmony fires for both members because both day branches are 亥. For me, 戊 earth controlling 癸 water costs 8 points — easily outweighed by three harmony rules.
Why the third candidate is flagged
| Member | Rules that fired | Score | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Me | Base 50 · year three-harmony 申子辰 +8 · same element (water) +3 · day-branch clash 巳亥 −25 | 36 | incompatible |
| Wife | Base 50 · year three-harmony +8 · I generate them (metal generates water) +4 · day-branch clash 巳亥 −25 | 37 | incompatible |
A day-branch clash is a hard clash, not merely a deduction — even if the weighted average had come out high, it would still be flagged ⚠ on its own. Here both members clash, so the average falls to 36 as well.
First working day for the top candidate
The day must clash with neither chart, and the almanac must list 開市 (open for business) or 納財 (receive wealth) as suitable:
| Date | Day pillar | Almanac | Bonus | Score | Suggested hour |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-03-22 | 乙未 | 宜 納財 | Employer three-harmony wood +50 | 100 | 己卯 05:00–07:00 |
| 2026-04-03 | 丁未 | 宜 開市 | Employer three-harmony wood +50 | 100 | 癸卯 05:00–07:00 |
| 2026-06-14 | 己未 | 宜 開市, 納財 | Employer three-harmony wood +50 | 100 | 丁卯 05:00–07:00 |
This list has its own scale (almanac 50 plus each chart's branch bonus, ceiling 150) and shows no good / strong / exceptional band. The candidate contributes no branch bonus here, so only the employer's line appears. The suggested hour is harmony-only, as for purpose dates, and does not count toward the score — it only tells you which hour runs smoothest.
Start date: the three rows above were computed from a 2026-01-01 starting point, so that the sample covers the whole of 2026. In the app, first working days are counted from today — the dates you get will all be in the future, and will not line up row for row with this sample.
One caution. Compatibility scoring is a cultural reference. It should not be the sole reason to hire or dismiss anyone, and it does not replace interviews, references, or your legal obligations as an employer. A low score is a prompt, not a verdict.
