Winter's Four Pillars and signs
Winter's date of birth, as published, is 1/1/2001. The birth time is not public.
There is still a great deal we can say. What follows is only what does not change whether or not we know the hour.
| Hour of birth | Day of birth | Month of birth | Year of birth | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Upper | (unknown) | Gap (甲) | Mu (戊) | Gyeong (庚) |
| Lower | (unknown) | Ja (子) | Ja (子) | Jin (辰) |
The chart reads right to left. Because the hour is not public, the left-most column is left empty. The other three are fixed by the date alone, so we write them as they are.
What you are made of — like a tall tree
What stands for Winter is a tall tree.
A tall tree that grows straight up. It reaches rather than bends, and once it picks a direction it keeps going. Having to go around something is what frustrates it.
Straight and steady. No tricks — and sometimes not much give, either.
The ground it stands on
The ground that a tall tree stands on is moist ground.
It means there is a root. However it looks from outside, there is holding power underneath, so what has been decided is not easily overturned. It is not the quick-to-heat kind but the kind that lasts.
Parents
Parents who push from behind.
Winter is not left to drive it all alone; there is support underneath. Basic stamina runs high and it holds out a long time alone. What that abundance asks in return is that you go out and find where you are needed yourself — that is when it goes best.
Partner
A partner who is someone who supports. A tie that holds up rather than cuts down.
It is easiest together when the person beside you is steady and even rather than showy.
Signs
Much of a chart changes with the hour of birth. For Winter, seven of the seven stayed the same all day long. Those we can give you without knowing the hour.
Winter stacks it up one layer at a time. Rather than go fast, goes all the way.
has soft edges. Other people’s moods come straight across.
picks the side that is not the same as everyone else. Does not simply follow the set form.
goes in deep. Rather than spread thin, follows one thing to the end.
runs several threads at once. Holding only one for long gets stifling.
holds on to what it has taken. Slow to change, and correspondingly hard to knock over.
⇒ Carries both stacking it up and holding on once taken at once.

What we do not do
- We write only what the engine returns from a published date of birth.
- We do not pretend to know the birth time. What changes with the hour, we say changes.
- We do not give the ascendant or the houses. They turn over completely every two hours, so without the hour all twelve are candidates — picking one would be making it up.
- The sky was swept on Korea Standard Time.
