Gyeongin (庚寅) day pillar
An axe in the forest: someone who thinks big
What the Gyeongin day pillar is like
Gyeongin is raw iron (庚) over a spring forest (寅). Metal governs wood, so Indirect Wealth (편재) sits below, and the stage is Severance (절). Like an axe choosing timber, it moves boldly when it sees a chance and likes to set things up on a large scale.
It ranges widely, meets many people and has a feel for work where money changes hands. The 丙 hidden in 寅 is Seven Killings (편관), giving it the nerve to decide under pressure. Easy-going and direct, it talks freely with strangers.
Projects can start faster than they are wrapped up. Setting an end date when you begin turns the drive into finished results.
The Gyeongin ilju (day pillar), character by character
Number 27 of the sixty-pillar cycle. The table shows what Halmeoni's calendar engine computes for this pillar.
| Fact | Value |
|---|---|
| Top character (day master) | 庚 — rock or raw iron (yang metal) |
| Bottom character (day branch) | 寅 — Tiger · wood · early spring (about February) |
| Yin-yang | yang (both characters) |
| Elements | metal above, wood below |
| How the two relate | The top character controls the bottom one: sitting on what you manage and gather. |
| Hidden stems (ten gods) | 戊 Indirect Resource (편인), 丙 Seven Killings (편관), 甲 Indirect Wealth (편재) |
| Ten god of the day branch | Indirect Wealth (편재) — money you move around, big chances; for a man, a lover |
| Twelve stages | Severance (절) — cut off: an end and a fresh start |
| Void branches (공망) | 午, 未 — an empty spot: what is hard to hold on to |
Hidden stems are the forces tucked inside the bottom character; the last one listed is the strongest. Ten gods describe each character as seen from the top character, the day master, so the same bottom character gets a different name under a different day master. The void branches are the two that have no partner in this pillar's ten-day week; they only matter when they appear elsewhere in a chart.
A day pillar is only two of the eight characters in a chart. People who share it can read very differently once the year, month and hour are added, so take this as entertainment, not as a verdict on who you are.
