Chapter 1
Major Fortune — Your Decade Chapters Major Fortune (Da Yun) divides your life into 10-year chapters, each governed by a Stem-Branch pair that recolors your entire chart. Learn how these decade cycles work, why the same person can feel radically different at 25 vs 35, and how this maps to concepts you may already know — like Saturn Returns or Erikson's life stages.
Chapter 2
Annual Fortune — Each Year's Theme Song Annual Fortune (Liu Nian) is the Stem-Branch of the current calendar year. It layers on top of your Major Fortune like a yearly weather pattern, creating the specific theme and flavor of each year. Learn how to read it, why 2024 and 2025 feel different, and how it compares to the Solar Return in astrology.
Chapter 3
Monthly & Daily Fortune — Life's Fine-Grained Rhythm Monthly Fortune (Liu Yue) and Daily Fortune (Ri Yun) add granularity to the annual theme, like zooming in on a map from country to city to street. Learn how these micro-cycles work, how Astrobloom's daily calendar feature operates, and why BaZi daily fortune is fundamentally different from generic Sun-sign horoscopes.
Chapter 4
Combined Fortune — When Cycles Overlap Major Fortune, Annual Fortune, and Monthly Fortune stack like weather systems. When they align, you get peak conditions; when they conflict, maximum challenge. Learn the stacking mechanics, the concepts of Fu Yin (repetition) and Fan Yin (reversal), and how to read timing like a multi-layered weather map.
Chapter 5
Compatibility 101 — When Two Charts Meet BaZi compatibility analysis (He Pan) examines the elemental interaction between two natal charts. It measures complementarity, friction patterns, and timing synchronization — not "destiny." Learn the five dimensions Astrobloom analyzes and how this compares to synastry in Western astrology.
Chapter 6
Love Compatibility — Decoding Your Relationship Romantic compatibility in BaZi goes beyond "are we a match?" to reveal specific interaction patterns: communication style, emotional expression, attachment dynamics, and timing. Learn how the Spouse Palace works, common compatible and challenging patterns, and how to use compatibility insights for understanding rather than judgment.
