Gerard Posted Tuesday at 08:55 AM The Snake is ruled by Fire but it is Yin in nature. It is associated with transformation (moulting in the animal kingdom), wisdom (Fire) and growth (Wood, 2025). You can read a detailed analysis here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DynamicEquilibrium Posted Tuesday at 12:36 PM Did you ever heard about 立春八字? It is a more complete way of analaysis of the year cycle, more difficult to learn too. Here's an exemple for 2025, in cantonese sorry ! https://youtu.be/0UKfW0NW0uM?si=u9HlD-jkAwNQiLgw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's an exemple for 2025, in cantonese sorry ! https://youtu.be/0UKfW0NW0uM?si=u9HlD-jkAwNQiLgw I don't know any Cantonese, alas, but I know this system, and should perhaps mention that in the sexagenary cycle the coming year is No. 42. Which evokes a peculiar Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy association. (For those who haven't read it or forgot this bit -- the great supercomputer, Deep Thought, took seven and a half million years figuring out the answer to "the meaning of life, the universe, and everything." The answer was 42. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DynamicEquilibrium Posted Tuesday at 10:41 PM (edited) The four pillars for 2025/02/03 at 10:12 pm (china time): 癸癸戊乙 亥卯寅巳 The time pilar changes according to the location. At first glance there's a combination between the day master of 2025 and the month stem supported by the year's branch which results in 丙. Interesting to note that the solar cycle is close to reach its peak. Months cycle for 2025 is: 戊己庚辛壬癸甲乙丙丁戊己 寅卯辰巳午未申酉戌亥子丑 How 2025 chart will interact with an individual Bazi chart and how two or more individual charts will interact together within the context of this year's chart is a quite challenging yet interesting problem for the reasoning, logic and analysis abilities. Inspiration or intuition can answer any questions any time but may not be so suitable to operate the four pilars which are not a divination tool.
