Can my Day Master change?

No. It is fixed by the day you were born. What changes is the weather around it: the year, the ten-year cycle, the people in the room.

Is one Day Master better than another?

No, and any reading that says otherwise is selling something. Ten leads, ten different ways a story can go.

Lesson 3

If saju were a show, seven of the eight characters are the cast. One is the lead, and it is you.

Who's teaching this one?

Find the day you were born, take the upper of its two characters. That is your Day Master.

The other seven characters are read in relation to it: who feeds it, who drains it, who argues with it.

Five elements, each in a loud version and a quiet version. That is ten Day Masters, and yours is one of them.

A chart asks whether your element has backup in its season, not whether it is winning. Both answers are workable; they just need different things.

Every other part of a reading — compatibility, luck cycles, the ten roles — is measured from this one character.

One birth date is all it takes. The day pillar does not need your birth time.

Your Day Master is the lead. The chart is the plot around it.

Can my Day Master change?: No. It is fixed by the day you were born. What changes is the weather around it: the year, the ten-year cycle, the people in the room.
Is one Day Master better than another?: No, and any reading that says otherwise is selling something. Ten leads, ten different ways a story can go.

Was this fun?

For entertainment. Saju describes tendencies, not fixed outcomes.
