The sixty day pillars

Jia Yin · 甲寅

Jia Yin pairs a Yang Wood Day Master with 寅 (the Tiger), a Wood branch. If this is your day pillar, the pairing below describes tendencies worth observing — not a verdict.

The Day Master on top

Yang Wood · The classical image for 甲 is a tall tree: growth that goes upward, visibly, along a trunk. A Yang Wood Day Master tends to move in straight lines — set a direction, build toward it, and prefer progress you can point at.

The branch beneath — your spouse palace

In a day pillar, the branch is read as the spouse palace: the texture of close partnership. 寅 (the Tiger) carries these hidden stems, each read as a relationship between that stem and your Day Master:

Peer

Same polarity, same element as the Day Master — peers, self-reliance, and parallel drive.

Output (Gentle)

Gentle output — talent expressed with ease, appetite, and craft rather than confrontation.

Indirect Wealth

Indirect wealth — opportunity money, deals, and resources that move through networks.

Na Yin

The Na Yin of Jia Yin is 大溪水 — "Broad-Stream Water". Na Yin is a poetic sixty-fold naming of the pillars, used as a secondary texture rather than a primary verdict.

Stage of the cycle

Taking office — Taking the seat — competent, active, and ready to handle duty.

Void branches (Xun Kong)

Charts anchored on 甲寅 treat 子丑 as "void" — branches whose signals are read as weakened or delayed rather than absent.

Is Jia Yin actually your day pillar?

The day pillar comes from your exact birth date — and near midnight, from true solar time. Calculate it instead of guessing.

As with everything on Truenoon, this page describes observable tendencies, not a verdict on who you are.
