The picture
Mu-Ja is a mountain with water under it. Yang Earth controls the Rat’s Water, and the two stems combine, so this pillar is closely attached to what it owns and whom it loves. It is practical, careful with money and reliable. It does not say much about its feelings, and they run deep. The Rat holds a single stem, so the attachment is undivided: Mu-Ja tends to have one main source of income and one person at the centre of its life.
What the pillar is made of
| Part | In Mu-Ja |
|---|---|
| Day Master | 戊 Mu, Yang Earth |
| Day branch | 子 Ja, the Rat |
| Hidden stems | 癸 Gye: Direct Wealth |
| Life stage | Conception 胎 |
| Void branches | 午 O (Horse), 未 Mi (Goat) |
| Stars it carries | None of its own |
The Day Master sits on the element it controls, in the opposite polarity. Practicality is at the core, and money and home are closely linked. In a male chart tradition reads the wife star sitting in the spouse palace as a favourable sign for marriage.
These are the facts every Mu-Ja chart shares, whatever the other three pillars hold. They are taken from the same engine that calculates your chart.

Devoted and constant, Mu-Ja holds its partner close. It needs to learn that holding and trusting are different things.
