BaZi calculator
Free BaZi Calculator for Four Pillars, Day Master, and Five Elements
Enter your birth date, birth time, and birth city to generate your BaZi chart, Day Master, Five Elements balance, and a modern preview reading in plain English.
How the calculator works
More than a year-animal lookup.
The Mingora BaZi calculator builds a chart from the Four Pillars: year, month, day, and hour when birth time is known. It then identifies your Day Master and Five Elements balance, which become the foundation for the preview reading.
The result is designed for modern readers. You can inspect the chart structure first, then read a plain-English interpretation that connects the calculation to personality patterns, relationships, career rhythm, and timing.
FAQ
What is a BaZi calculator?+
A BaZi calculator uses your birth date, birth time, and birth location to generate a Four Pillars chart. Mingora also translates the result into a plain-English preview so the chart is easier to understand.
What does the Day Master mean?+
The Day Master is the heavenly stem of your day pillar. In BaZi, it acts as a core reference point for reading the rest of the chart, including element balance, relationship patterns, and timing themes.
Do I need my exact birth time?+
Exact birth time helps calculate the hour pillar and can improve timing detail. If you do not know it, Mingora can still calculate a three-pillar chart and generate a more cautious preview.
Is BaZi different from Chinese zodiac?+
Yes. Chinese zodiac usually focuses on the animal connected to your birth year. BaZi uses year, month, day, and hour pillars, plus Five Elements and the Day Master, so it gives a more detailed birth chart structure.
