Byeong-Sul day pillar

Yang Fire over the Dog병술일주 · BaZi: Bing Xu

The sun setting behind a mountain. A warm, generous and contemplative nature with banked passion and firm conviction.

The picture

Byeong-Sul is the evening sun. The Dog is the storehouse of Fire, so the light here is going into keeping: less blaze, more glow. This pillar is generous and expressive, with a feeling for performance and for belief. It thinks about meaning. Its will is strong, and when it flares the heat is real. Fire feeds the Dog’s Earth, so what Byeong-Sul knows and believes it also passes on: it teaches, cooks, performs, preaches.

The Day Master sits on the element it produces, in the same polarity. Talent and ease are close at hand, and home life is read as comfortable and productive.

These are the facts every Byeong-Sul chart shares, whatever the other three pillars hold. They are taken from the same engine that calculates your chart.

  • Expressive talent that moves an audience.

At work

The arts, religion, education, cooking, broadcasting and counselling.

A day pillar is one of four. Two people born on a Byeong-Sul day in different months and hours have different charts: the season decides how strong the Day Master is, and the other pillars add their own ten gods and interactions. Read this page as the starting point, then look at the whole chart.

Questions people ask

What does the Byeong-Sul day pillar mean?
Byeong-Sul (丙戌) is Yang Fire over the Dog: a warm, generous and contemplative nature with banked passion and firm conviction.
How do I know if Byeong-Sul is my day pillar?
The day pillar comes from a sixty-day cycle and from true solar time at your birthplace, so it cannot be worked out from your birth year or zodiac animal. Calculate your chart: if the Day column shows 丙戌, this is your pillar.
What is 丙戌 called in Chinese BaZi?
Bing Xu. It is the same pillar. Korean Saju reads the characters as Byeong-Sul and calls it Byeongsul ilju (병술일주); BaZi sources write Bing Xu in pinyin.
Which life stage and void branches go with Byeong-Sul?
On its own seat the Day Master is at the Grave stage (墓). Storage, the tomb: things put away, collected, hidden. Associated with saving and with secrets. The void branches for this pillar are 午 O (Horse) and 未 Mi (Goat). The strength of the whole chart depends mostly on the birth month, not on this stage alone.
