Your day
master

The single most important piece of your chart, explained.

What a day master is

Of the eight characters in a saju chart, one stands above the rest: the stem of your birth day. That's your day master — the element that represents your core self. Everything else in the chart is read in relation to it.

Ten day masters, five elements

Each element comes in a yang (outward) and a yin (inward) form, which makes ten day masters in all — for example, a yang Metal reads differently from a yin Metal, even though both are "Metal." That's why two Metal people aren't the same.

How to find yours

Your day master is set by the day you were born — you don't work it out by hand. Enter your birth details and NYXA reads it for you, in plain English, as part of your type.
