Day Master 22 of 60 · 金木
乙酉 Day Master
Yǐ / Yin Wood (The Climbing Vine) seated on Rooster — one of the sixty Day Pillars a real birth chart can land on.
Your Day Master stem · 日主
乙 — Yǐ / Yin Wood
The Climbing Vine: a yin expression of Wood (木). In BaZi, the Day Master is read as the self at the centre of the chart — every other pillar is described in relation to it.
Self-seated strength · 自坐
Depleted (死)
Seated directly on 酉 (Rooster), Wood is dormant, overpowered by the season's dominant element. This is only the Day Master's relationship to its own seat — the month branch usually carries more weight in a full strength verdict, which is why a real chart (not this page) is what actually tells you whether 乙酉 runs strong, weak, or balanced.
Hidden stems in the seat · 藏干
What 酉 carries beneath the surface
Every Earthly Branch hides one to three Heavenly Stems. Relative to a 乙酉 Day Master, 酉's hidden stem reads as:
- 辛 (main qi)七殺 qī shā — Seven Killings
Your Day Branch · 金酉
Rooster (酉)
Roosters are exacting and expressive — masters of detail who take pride in doing things properly and being seen doing them.
Is 乙酉 actually your Day Master?
Your Day Pillar depends on your exact birth date — and, near midnight, your birth time and city too. Enter your details and the deterministic engine will tell you for certain.
