Discover Your Elemental Blueprint
In Five Element theory your birth moment carries a particular balance of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water — and that balance shapes how you move through the world. Three minutes gives you the map.
How it works
Live in harmony with nature's blueprint
Three steps, no account, and nothing uploaded. The whole calculation — solar terms, true solar time, timezone and daylight saving — runs on your own device.
Enter your birth details
Date, time and city. Not sure of the exact time? There is a fallback and we will mark the result clearly as approximate. If you do know it, we correct it for true solar time.
We map your elements
Your birth moment is corrected for longitude and the equation of time, then read through the classical cycle of generation and cycle of restraint.

Five animated bars, your Core Element, your dominant energy, where you run thin — and the one quality most worth cultivating right now.
Every day carries one of the five elements. See today’s, the colors that sit in flow with it, and how to dress with the day rather than against it — a two-minute ritual you can come back to every morning.

Five qualities of movement
Not five types of person — five ways energy moves. Everyone carries all five, in different proportions. Balance is the goal, not abundance.
Sample profile
Elemental Harmony
London · 14 January 1993, 11:30 · your unique balance of the five elements
That sample report is complete — all nine sections, written out, for a sample person (London, 14 January 1993). No email, no sign-up, no preview cut-off. Every number in it — the balance above, the anchor element, the friction points — comes from that person’s chart, not yours. Yours is calculated from your own four pillars.
Reading
Before you trust any chart
The parts most explanations skip: how the element is actually derived, where the zodiac shortcut goes wrong, and how to check whether a calculator is doing the real work. Or, for the question underneath all of it, how accurate BaZi can honestly be.

What is my Chinese element?
Your birth year gives most people the wrong answer. Here is how the element is actually worked out.

Five Elements vs zodiac
Two systems that get mixed up constantly: what each one measures, and where they overlap.

How to tell a BaZi calculator is any good
Six checks you can run in ten minutes — including one that most free calculators fail.
Privacy by architecture
Your birth data never leaves your browser.
Every calculation — timezone, daylight saving, true solar time, solar terms, the four pillars, the element distribution — runs locally in JavaScript on your own device. No account, no upload, and nothing to delete afterward.
