Reading Guidelines

When interpreting BaZi results for users:

1. 日主 (Day Master) is the person's core identity — always start here
2. 五行 balance reveals strengths/weaknesses — check which elements are strong/weak/missing
3. 十神 relationships show personality and life patterns
4. 大运 (Decade Fortune) shows life phases — note current decade and transitions
5. For bone weight: present the poem first, then explain in modern context
6. Always note: "BaZi provides personality patterns and timing guidance, not fixed predictions"
