How a BaZi reading helps you connect

Understand your shared strengths and differences through BaZi (八字), also known as Four Pillars Chinese astrology. It uses birth details and the Five Elements as a traditional framework for reflection, not a relationship verdict.

01

Four Pillars birth charts

Your birth date and time provide the starting point for this traditional reading. Each adds detail, helping us explore more than a single zodiac sign. These are prompts for reflection, not fixed descriptions of who you are.

02

Five types of energy

Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, and Wood are the Five Elements used in BaZi and feng shui. Comparing your charts offers prompts to explore what each person may bring, support, or intensify.

03

Chinese zodiac symbols

The 12 Chinese zodiac animals are symbols used to explore ways of relating. Comparing yours can suggest areas of ease, differences to understand, and habits worth talking about. The focus changes with the relationship you choose.

Your questions / Before you begin

A little clarity, before you connect.

What does this free BaZi compatibility calculator show?

Explore shared strengths, differences, and ways to respond to each other through a comparison of two BaZi Four Pillars birth charts. This traditional Chinese astrology reading considers Five Element and Chinese zodiac patterns. It does not provide a compatibility percentage or determine whether a relationship will succeed.

Is BaZi the same as feng shui?

They are related but distinct Chinese practices. BaZi (八字), or Four Pillars Chinese astrology, starts with birth details. Feng shui focuses on surroundings. Both draw on ideas such as yin and yang and the Five Elements. This tool compares birth-chart patterns, not your home’s layout.

What birth details do we need?

Enter both birth dates and choose both birthplaces. Birth times add detail; for romance, friendship, and business readings, you can leave an unknown time blank. Parent-and-child readings require both birth hours. Obtain permission and follow the consent prompts before entering another person’s information.

Is this only a Chinese zodiac love compatibility test?

No. A birth-year animal is only one part of a Four Pillars chart. Choose a romantic, friendship, business, or parent-and-child perspective to explore the available chart patterns in context. The reading is for reflection, not a prediction or a fixed label for either person.
