What the pillars say
Water Snake — the year animal
Snakes are traditionally described as perceptive, private, plays the long game; the Water element of 2013 adds a adaptive, far-thinking tone. The animal is the public layer of the chart — how the generation moves.
Yin Wood Day Master — the core self
The day stem 乙 is the climbing vine — flexible, diplomatic, finds a way around every obstacle. Hidden in the day branch 卯: 乙 — undercurrents that shape relationships and instincts.
Element balance
Visible and hidden together: Wood ×3.5 · Fire ×1.5 · Earth ×0.5 · Metal ×0.5 · Water ×2.5. Wood leads. The month gives the Day Master a strong seasonal footing — the birth hour would confirm this. The almanac officer for this day: 平 Balance.

FAQ
What Chinese zodiac sign is someone born on December 15, 2013?
December 15, 2013 falls in the 癸巳 year — the Water Snake. Note that the zodiac year follows the solar calendar (changing at 立春, early February), not January 1, so dates in January and early February belong to the previous animal year.
What is the Day Master and why does it matter more than the animal?
The zodiac animal is one of eight characters in the full chart. The Day Master — here 乙 (Yin Wood) — is the element that represents the person; classical BaZi reads everything else relative to it.
Why is the hour pillar missing?
The fourth pillar requires the time of birth, corrected to true solar time of the birthplace. Add your birth time in the free DayAtlas calculator to complete the chart, including Luck Pillars and a personal day forecast.
