Day Master FAQs
What is the Day Master in BaZi?
It is the Heavenly Stem of your Day Pillar and the anchor for all role interpretation.

Why does strong vs weak matter?
It changes how Wealth, Power, and Output behave and what strategies stabilize you.
Is Day Master the same as personality?
No. It is an operating baseline under conditions, not a fixed personality label.

No. Timing changes conditions and emphasis, not your Day Master.
