How to use AI for BaZi readings — 4 steps

  1. 1

    Confirm your birth time (Gregorian)

    We need: year, month, day, hour, minute. Aim for minute-level precision — it directly affects the Hour Pillar. Your birthplace is used for true solar time correction.

  2. 2

    Let us compute the BaZi chart

    Fill in the form and our engine handles: true solar time correction, Zi-hour day-split, Four Pillars + Ten Gods, Hidden Stems, Na Yin, Stars & Shen Sha, Luck Cycle start age, and 60-year Annual Pillars.

  3. 3

    Paste prompt + chart into the AI

    Click "Copy Prompt + Chart" — we merge the prompt with your chart into one plain-text block. Paste straight into ChatGPT / Claude / DeepSeek / Gemini, any of them.

  4. 4

    Follow up on what matters to you

    After the initial reading, ask follow-ups like "career in 2026", "when will love come", "health watchouts", "children". The LLM already has full chart context — answers will fit your specific structure.

What does the AI actually output?

Below is a real ChatGPT 4o snippet using this prompt on a sample chart. The full output runs ~1500–2500 words, covering structure, career, wealth, marriage, annual cycles, and advice.

【Structure】
The Day Master Wu Earth (戊) is born in the Mao (卯) month, where the wood element governs. Mao Wood overcomes Wu Earth as Officer/Killer. Day branch Zi (子) Water sits as Direct Wealth, Year branch Wu (午) Fire transmits Direct Resource at the Year Pillar, and Hour branch Si (巳) Fire transmits Bing (丙) Direct Resource at the Hour Pillar. Overall: Direct Officer pattern with Resource — Officer-Resource flow nourishes the weak Wu Earth, capable of carrying the Officer/Killer.

【Career】
With strong Officer/Killer protected by the Resource star, this person fits structured fields with clear professional credentials (law, academia, public sector, technical specialist track). Avoid speculation and impulsive job-hopping; deepen one domain to build reputation. The current Luck Cycle of Gui Wei (癸未, age 35-44) brings Wei Earth to support the self, and Wu gets month-branch backing — work is steady with gradual rise.

【Annual (2025-2027)】
2025 Yi Si: Annual Direct Officer transmits — promotion or major project leadership likely; mind relations with senior management.
2026 Bing Wu: Bing Fire Direct Resource transmits again — degree or professional certification upgrade window; pursue further study.
2027 Ding Wei: Ding Fire Indirect Resource — clear thinking but high pressure; watch health (Earth-strong digestive concerns).

FAQ

Is AI BaZi reading accurate?

AI cannot predict the future. But when given structured BaZi data (Heavenly Stems, Earthly Branches, Ten Gods, Five Elements, Luck Cycles, Annual Pillars), it applies the analytical framework of Chinese metaphysics to your chart and produces a reading grounded in the theory. The logic mirrors how a human almanac is written; AI is just faster and can cross-check rules across schools. Treat the output as "a senior reader's perspective," not absolute prediction.

DeepSeek vs ChatGPT vs Claude — which is best for BaZi?

Each has strengths. DeepSeek V3 / R1 has the densest Chinese metaphysics in pre-training, so its sense for stem-branch combinations feels most native. Claude 3.5/4 holds long-context reasoning best (annual event chains). ChatGPT 4o / o1 produces the most disciplined structured output (clean sections). Our prompt has been tested on all three at senior-reader quality. For free use we recommend DeepSeek; for long deep reasoning, Claude; for strict structured output, GPT.

Why not just use a GitHub prompt directly?

Most prompts on GitHub are blank templates — you have to know your own Stems, Branches, Ten Gods, Hidden Stems, Shen Sha, Luck Cycle start age, and 60-year Annual Pillars to fill them in. We automate that hard part: you give birth time + place, our engine outputs true solar time, Four Pillars, Hidden Stems, Na Yin, Stars, Shen Sha, Luck Cycles, and Annual Pillars. Every field the prompt needs is pre-filled — copy & paste.

Can it analyze career / wealth / marriage?

Yes. Our prompt explicitly instructs the AI to analyze six dimensions: career, wealth, marriage, children, family, and health. Each is judged based on your chart's structure. To go deeper on one dimension (e.g. "job-hopping window in 2026"), simply ask follow-ups — Claude / GPT-4o keep context and will expand from the first reading.

How do I avoid OCR misreads of stem/branch chars?

Paste text, not images. BaZi has visually similar characters: 巳/己/已, 戊/戌/戍, 壬/王, 庚/唐, 辛/幸. If the AI has to OCR an image, error rates run 5-15%, corrupting the entire analysis. We output plain text so the model's tokens read characters directly — 100% accuracy.

Is it really free?

Yes. Prompt copy and chart generation are free with no forced signup. Signing up enables saved profiles, deeper in-app AI Q&A (the LLM gets your chart pre-loaded as context), and history. If you only want the prompt to feed your own ChatGPT or DeepSeek, it stays free forever.
