What do the year pillar, month pillar, day pillar, and hour pillar represent respectively?

The four pillars are not equally weighted information. The Year Pillar is further out, the Moon Pillar is closer to the present, the Sun Pillar is closer to itself, and the Hour Pillar is closer to the back segment and extension.

• ·When looking at the environment and starting point, the year pillar and month pillar are more important.
• ·When looking at how you handle relationships, the day pillar is more critical.
• ·When looking at stage changes and subsequent developments, the hour pillars will be more visible.

The same line will show different content in different locations. The four pillars should be read as information layers, not identity tags.

Layer them first, and then compare which layer is the most repetitive and powerful in a certain theme. Really useful judgments come from multi-layered consensus rather than single-column conclusions.

The Year Pillar is further away, like the background and the general environment; the Moon Pillar is closer, like the growth climate and current power; the Sun Pillar is close to the body, often entering into the self and intimate relationships; the Hour Pillar extends back to see the results, works and subsequent development. If the sense of distance is different, the reading method cannot be the same.

The year pillar not only represents ancestors, the moon pillar not only represents parents, and the hour pillar not only represents children. They can correspond to these themes, but first there is the information level. Fixing the four pillars into a kinship list will make many disks unreadable.

Really stable judgments often come from multiple pillars pointing to the same theme. If a certain piece of information only appears in one place, it can be used as a clue; if it is repeated in the month column, day column, and hour column, it will be more like the main line.

The year column and the month column are more like the background field, the day column is more like the foreground core, and the hour column is more like the subsequent extension. Reading the four pillars as a picture with depth of field is often easier to make a true structural judgment than reading them as four grids.

The year pillar can show the distant background, the moon pillar can show the growth climate, the sun pillar can show the self and intimacy, and the hour pillar can show extension and follow-up, but these are not indicators of death. Any subject may cross the pillars of forensics.

The moon pillar is close to the season and the growing environment, and often determines where to start in the initial judgment. When reading the four pillars, if you ignore the month pillar, it is easy to only look at the partial clues of the day pillar and hour pillar.

The time pillar can also look at works, children, results, subsequent choices and future extensions. Locking the time pillar only in the later years will miss many realistic topics, especially career achievements and family extension.

The concepts of Four Pillars, Sun Lord, and Root Qi are not isolated knowledge points. Their value lies in helping readers read the disk into structure: who is the center, where there are roots, where is just the surface, and what information echoes each other. If the basic text is not connected to the whole plate, it will be like a dictionary.

Heavenly stems, revealing, and sun masters are more likely to become explicit expressions; earthly branches, Tibetan stems, and root energy are more like underlying inheritance. There is a difference in reality between having the surface but not the bottom layer and having the bottom layer but not showing through the surface. Clarifying this relationship between the outside and inside is the key to deepening the basic text.
