Your Day Pillar — the most personal element of your saju chart — changes every year. Find yours below.

In saju, your Day Pillar (일주/日柱) represents your core self — who you are at the deepest level. Unlike Western astrology's sun sign, which stays the same for everyone born in the same month, the Day Pillar changes every single day and cycles through 60 unique combinations. Two people born on January 5 in different years carry different Day Pillars, different energies, and different structural tendencies.

January falls under the Ox branch (丑/축) in saju, governed by Yin Earth energy. This month energy shapes your social instincts and career tendencies. But your Day Pillar shapes you.
