Six ideas behind every chart
The vocabulary a BaZi chart assumes. Each entry links to the full wiki article.
Four pillars, not one signEight characters: year, month, day and hour, each a stem above a branch.
A chart stacks four two-character pillars. The day stem is the reference point: every other character is described relative to it, which is why the same branch can mean different things in two charts.
Four pillars, not one sign →Ten godsTen named relations between the day stem and everything else.
They are not deities. Each one is shorthand for how an element stands to the day stem — the same element (companion), what it produces (output), what produces it (resource), what it controls (wealth), what controls it (officer).
Ten gods →Hidden stemsA branch carries one to three stems that never appear on the surface.
Hidden stems explain why two charts with identical visible characters read differently. A branch is a small bundle rather than one element, and which hidden stem counts as primary is a convention each school fixes in advance.
Hidden stems →Useful godThe element a chart most needs — and the most argued-about value in BaZi.
It is chosen from the strength of the day stem and from what the season gives it. Schools weight temperature, balance and flow differently, so two practitioners can disagree about one chart without either of them misreading it.
Useful god →Luck cyclesTen-year pillars that carry a chart through time.
A cycle sequence starts from the month pillar and runs forward or backward depending on gender and the polarity of the year stem. The starting age comes from counting days to the neighbouring solar term, not from the birthday.
Luck cycles →Na YinSixty stem-branch pairs, each with a fixed elemental name.
A lookup table rather than a calculation: 甲子 is sea-water metal, and so on. Useful as a second vocabulary when reading older texts, weak as a standalone method of interpretation.

What people say
Notes from people who keep charts for years, about accuracy, exports and what they stopped using.
ChatGPT kept inventing BaZi stems. Local charts fixed that.
Export still needs polish. The chart already matches what I calculate by hand though, which is the part I care about.
I spent years on free BaZi sites. Ads, three canned paragraphs, same tone every time. This is slower. I still prefer it.
I still double-check rare placements. The engine barely invents pillars now, which is new for me.
Keep reading
Three articles on BaZi method: how to keep notes you can audit, what would count as evidence, and building Five Phases vocabulary.
MethodHow to keep BaZi reading notes you can actually check
A note format that keeps birth data, the engine's output and your own interpretation in separate layers, so a later disagreement points at the right one.
ResearchWhat would count as evidence for a BaZi interpretation?
A correctly calculated chart and an accurate personal prediction are two different claims. The article separates construction, tradition, resonance and testable prediction.
BasicsMake Five Phases study cards with their sources attached
Build source-linked vocabulary cards from the Great Plan, and add a relationship rule only when a source actually states it.
From a chart you can check to a reading you can revisit
This page stops at a chart you can inspect. The desktop agent is where that chart stays attached to the conversation.
What the page already does
Deterministic pillars
Pillars, ten gods, hidden stems and luck cycles are computed, not generated — the same birth data always gives the same chart.
Every value traceable
Each panel shows the rule it came from, so a wrong birth time looks wrong instead of merely plausible.
Charts you can keep
Save a chart and reopen it later. Nothing on this page requires an account.
Then continue in the Mystilink Agent
The chart as input, not a screenshot
The agent reads the structured chart directly, so it cannot describe a pillar that the engine never produced.
Follow up panel by panel
Ask about one ten-god relation, then another. The chart is not re-described from scratch on every turn.
Compare two charts
Hold two birth charts side by side and ask what differs, without merging them into one blended answer.
This page does not generate AI commentary. Charts come from a deterministic engine and the explanations from a knowledge base maintained by Mystilink's practitioners; the model is not allowed to improvise over either.

FAQ
What is BaZi charting software?
BaZi charting software builds and analyses a Four Pillars chart; Mystilink makes that chart part of a persistent desktop workspace instead of a one-off calculator page.
It computes the year, month, day and hour pillars with their stems and branches, then keeps the Ten Gods, five elements and luck cycles beside the chart so you can move between structure and interpretation without losing your place.
- Deterministic chart: pillars, stems, branches and Ten Gods all come from calculation.
- Structure in view: elements, relationships and luck cycles sit next to the chart.
- Persistent workspace: profiles and charts are saved for later sessions.
Does Mystilink run on Mac?
Yes. Mystilink is a desktop application with builds for macOS and Windows, so a Mac is a fully supported platform.
Charting, the analysis panels and the AI layer all run inside the same installed client, which means your profiles and charts stay on your own machine.
- Native app: macOS and Windows ship as one product with the same features.
- Local work: profiles and charts are stored on your machine.
- No cut-down mode: nothing is Mac-only or Windows-only.
Does Mystilink support Windows?
Yes. Windows is a fully supported platform, shipped as the same product as the macOS build.
Download the Windows installer, sign in or register, activate the desktop app, and the same workspace, charting tools and AI layers are available.
- One product: macOS and Windows share the same feature set.
- Activation: sign in or register, then activate the client.
- Local storage: profiles and charts remain on your machine.
Can BaZi analysis be combined with a BaZi AI layer?
Yes. Once the Four Pillars chart is structured, you can continue with a BaZi AI layer inside the same desktop app, without exporting data to a separate chat tool.
The AI layer works on the computed chart, so its steps stay anchored to the same pillars, Ten Gods and luck cycles that are visible on screen.
- Same chart: the AI reads the chart the tooling produced.
- No switching: nothing is copied into an external chatbot.
- Traceable: every conclusion can be checked against the chart.
Use the charting tools for structure and the AI layer for interpretation; neither one replaces the other.
Does Mystilink support related systems?
Yes. The same desktop product also covers Saju (Four Pillars) and Zi Wei Dou Shu workflows, so adjacent systems do not need a second application.
Profiles and settings are shared across those workflows, which makes it practical to compare how different systems read the same birth data.
- Saju (Four Pillars): the same Four Pillars material under its Korean naming.
- Zi Wei Dou Shu: twelve palaces, stars and four transformations.
- Shared profiles: one desktop app with consistent data entry.
Is Mystilink a web app or a desktop app?
Mystilink is a desktop application; the website is not the product.
The site exists for download, account, pricing and product documentation, while all charting and reasoning run in the installed client on your own machine.
- Desktop app: analysis runs in the installed client.
- Website role: download, account, pricing and docs only.
- Local by design: your data is not processed in a browser tab.
How do I get started?
Download Mystilink, sign in or register, activate the desktop app, then open the BaZi charting workflow and load a profile.
Setup is deliberately the same for every system: install once, generate the chart first, and only then ask the AI layer, so answers always rest on computed structure.
- Install: download the build for macOS or Windows.
- Activate: sign in or register with your account.
- Open the workflow: choose BaZi charting, then load or create a profile.
Generate the first chart before asking questions; everything else builds on it.
