Your birth moment maps to a unique pattern of natural elements — a system refined over millennia across East Asia.

Using Yang (―) and Eum (--), the I Ching builds 8 trigrams and 64 hexagrams to explain the transformations of all things. It focuses on the process of change rather than fixed fate — this binary principle is the starting point of all analysis. Combining Yang (―) and Eum (--) lines creates the 8 trigrams: Geon, Tae, Ri, Jin, Son, Gam, Gan, and Gon. Stacking them yields 64 hexagrams. Like a computer's 0 and 1, just two symbols describe all of creation. The 24Plus engine converts this binary structure into digital features.
In ancient times, only five planets were visible to the naked eye: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Their characteristics were named Water, Metal, Fire, Wood, and Earth. The movement of these energies is called the Five Elements cycle. Mercury is fast and cold, embodying Water. Mars is red and hot, embodying Fire. Born from astronomical observation, the Five Elements expanded to encompass natural phenomena, the human body, personality, and seasons — forming the fundamental framework of Eastern philosophy.
Heavenly planets manifest on earth as natural elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water. Through generating and overcoming relationships, they constantly transform while maintaining balance. Each element corresponds to a season, direction, and color. Wood generates Fire, Fire generates Earth, Earth generates Metal, Metal generates Water, Water generates Wood. Conversely, Wood overcomes Earth, Earth overcomes Water, Water overcomes Fire, Fire overcomes Metal, Metal overcomes Wood. This cycle forms the fundamental relationship network of Four Pillars analysis.
The Sun creates a solar term every 15° along the ecliptic. In Four Pillars analysis, months begin at solar terms, not the 1st. The first solar term (Start of Spring) marks the year's start. The solar term of your birth month determines your Month Pillar. Even within the same calendar month, the Month Pillar changes around the solar term boundary, completely altering the interpretation. The 24Plus engine calculates solar term data from 1900 to 2100 down to the second for precise Month Pillar determination.
Your birth time determines which planetary energies are strong or weak. When energy is excessive, it's restrained; when deficient, it's supplemented to achieve balance. The core element that 24Plus analyzes is based on this principle. For example, someone with excessive Fire energy needs Water, while someone lacking Wood benefits from Water that generates Wood. The analysis goes beyond simple strong-or-weak — it comprehensively considers season, combinations, clashes, and rooting to make the judgment.
Yongshin, Heeshin, Gishin, Gushin, Hanshin — each of the Five Elements plays a specific role relative to the Day Master (you). This framework is the core of Four Pillars interpretation. Yongshin is the element you need most — it shapes the direction of your career, health, and relationships. Heeshin supports Yongshin, Gishin opposes it, Gushin aids the opposition, and Hanshin has minimal direct impact. The same birth chart can yield different Yongshin depending on the school of thought. The 24Plus engine computes major perspectives — structural, seasonal, and strength-based — in parallel, then cross-validates against 1,400+ classical case studies to deliver verified results.
Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches are assigned to four pillars: Year, Month, Day, Hour. These 8 characters form a unique elemental combination. 24Plus converts this into thousands of quantified features for personality, aptitude, and fortune analysis. The Year Pillar represents ancestors and society, the Month Pillar parents and growth, the Day Pillar self and spouse, and the Hour Pillar children and later years. Combinations, clashes, and other interactions between pillars create the depth and complexity of Four Pillars interpretation. Even with the same birth date, the Hour Pillar completely changes the chart composition. The Ten Gods relationships of the Heavenly Stems — Companion, Output, Wealth, Authority, Resource — determine personality traits, career aptitude, and relationship patterns. 24Plus quantifies all of these for precise analysis.
Da Yun (Major Fortune) shifts every 10 years. Same birth chart, different Da Yun means different life flow. 24Plus analyzes 4 time layers: life cycles, yearly, monthly, and daily fortune. Da Yun progresses forward or backward from the Month Pillar, with direction determined by gender and the Eum-Yang of the birth year. Every 10 years brings a new elemental environment — which Da Yun you're currently in sets the overarching framework for fortune interpretation.
Compatibility analyzes Heavenly Stem unions, Earthly Branch combinations, and elemental complementarity. 24Plus examines 7 perspectives in 3D analysis, supporting both 1:1 and group compatibility. Rather than a simple 'compatible or not,' it shows specifically where synergies arise and where adjustment is needed. Different relationship contexts — romantic, business, family — emphasize different compatibility factors, and the analysis distinguishes accordingly. The analysis synthesizes Day Master relationships, mutual key element support, Branch interaction dynamics, and elemental balance complementarity to identify strengths and areas of caution. Since compatibility dynamics shift over time, 24Plus provides dynamic analysis that reflects current life cycles and yearly fortune.
