Jia's signs and Four Pillars
Jia's date of birth, as published, is 2/3/1989. 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) | Eul (乙) | Mu (戊) |
| Lower | (unknown) | O (午) | Chuk (丑) | 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 Jia 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 warm ground.
Ground that pours out. Rather than stack things up inside, it puts them out, so it is most alive when there is a use for it.
Parents
Parents you take care of.
Giving more than receiving, it comes into its own part early. It learns to carry before it learns to lean.
Partner
A partner who is someone I pour into. A giving tie — the reward is large and so is the effort.
It is easy to end up the one giving. Learning to receive as well is what makes it last.
Signs
Much of a chart changes with the hour of birth. For Jia, six of the seven stayed the same all day long. Those we can give you without knowing the hour.
Jia picks the side that is not the same as everyone else. Does not simply follow the set form.
stacks it up one layer at a time. Rather than go fast, goes all the way.
holds on to what it has taken. Slow to change, and correspondingly hard to knock over.
⇒ Carries both picking a different side and holding on once taken at once.
What knowing the hour would narrow
the inner mood and feeling changed within that day. Knowing the hour of birth settles it to one.

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.
