Tool FAQ

Is the Day Master the same as the whole chart?

No. This page focuses on the day stem as the chart center. It does not try to explain every chart layer at once.

Can the Day Master alone define personality?

No. The Day Master gives the core style, while support level and balance direction show how that style is expressed.

Why does yin-yang matter?

Yin and yang describe expression style. Two people can share the same element but show it differently through polarity.

What does support level mean here?

Support level shows whether the core element has enough backing in this chart, or whether the reading points toward steadier support.
