Frequently asked

How is the The Growing Pioneer decided?

It comes from crossing the element of the day stem — the character that means 'you' — (Wood) with the Ten God group that is thickest across all eight characters (Peer group). Five elements times five groups gives twenty-five types.

Do two people of the same type have the same personality?

No. The type sorts charts into twenty-five broad groups; inside one type, the twelve day pillars, the other six characters and the luck cycles still make people quite different. Treat the type as a starting point.
