What the pillars say
Metal Monkey — the year animal
Monkeys are traditionally described as inventive, playful, solves what others give up on; the Metal element of 1980 adds a disciplined, exacting tone. The animal is the public layer of the chart — how the generation moves.
Yin Fire Day Master — the core self
The day stem 丁 is the candle flame — precise, perceptive, illuminating; intensity in a small radius. Hidden in the day branch 巳: 丙, 庚, 戊 — undercurrents that shape relationships and instincts.
Element balance
Visible and hidden together: Fire ×4 · Earth ×1.5 · Metal ×3 · Water ×1.5. Fire leads; no Wood surfaces. The month gives the Day Master a strong seasonal footing — the birth hour would confirm this. The almanac officer for this day: 闭 Shut.

FAQ
What Chinese zodiac sign is someone born on June 13, 1980?
June 13, 1980 falls in the 庚申 year — the Metal Monkey. 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 丁 (Yin Fire) — 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.
