FAQ
What Chinese zodiac sign is someone born on May 31, 2017?
May 31, 2017 falls in the 丁酉 year — the Fire Rooster. 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 戊 (Yang Earth) — is the element that represents the person; classical BaZi reads everything else relative to it.
