Q: What is the difference between Saju and the Five Elements?

Saju (四柱, 'Four Pillars') are the eight characters representing the year, month, day, and hour of birth in Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches. The Five Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water) are the energies those characters carry. Five-Element analysis examines how much of each energy is present in the Saju.

⚠️ Notes about this analysis ▼

• This tool uses a well-known Manseryeok data library to compute your Saju (Four Pillars) and simply counts the Five-Element (Water·Fire·Wood·Metal·Earth) distribution of those eight characters.

• Without a birth time, only 6 of the 8 characters (excluding the Hour Pillar 時柱) are used, so accuracy may be lower.

• A traditional myeongni reading determines the "Yongsin" (the truly needed favorable energy) by weighing the strength of the whole chart and stem-branch combinations (合·沖). That nuanced reading can differ from this simple count-based suggestion.
