This date falls in the disputed window
It is after the Start of Spring but before the lunar new year, so the two conventions disagree: Rabbit by the solar-term rule used in divination, Tiger by the festival rule. Printed tables usually show the second one.
Four pillars
The hour you choose only changes the last pillar; the other three stay fixed for this date.

Element balance of the eight characters
Two different “elements” are quoted for a birth year. The Water fate above is the traditional nayin (纳音) of the year pillar, which is what “Water of the Great Stream” means in folk astrology. The colours and counts below come from the stem and branch of each pillar, which is the method used for a five-element reading.
- Wood 2
- Fire 3
- Earth 1
- Metal 1
- Water 1
