New Year Fortune

2028 New Year Fortune

The annual pillar (年柱) of 2028 is Musin (戊申). Its heavenly stem element is Earth, and its earthly branch is the Monkey. The annual pillar changes not on January 1 but at Ipchun (around February 4), so those born before that date belong to the previous year's sign.

2028 monthly pillars

The month pillar (月柱) for each month. Month pillars change at each solar term (節氣), so the first few days of a month still belong to the previous month's pillar.

FAQ

When does the 2028 New Year fortune take effect?

The annual pillar (年柱) changes at Ipchun (around February 4), not on January 1. So January and early February of 2028 are still shaped more by the previous year's flow, and 2028's energy properly begins after Ipchun.

How is a zodiac fortune different from the annual luck in my own chart?

A zodiac fortune is a general reading based only on the earthly branch of your birth year (your sign). The annual luck in a Four Pillars chart is personal — it reads how the year's ganzhi relates to your Day Master (日干). Two people with the same sign can have very different years if their Day Masters differ, so check the calculator for an accurate reading.
