In Bazi (Eight Characters) numerology, a common method to determine which element one's fate belongs to is through the Day Master's five elements. The Day Master, which is the Heavenly Stem of the birth day, represents the person themselves. By analyzing the five-element attribute of the Day Master's Heavenly Stem and its relationship with the surrounding stems and branches, we can roughly understand a person's fortune trends. Below, we will introduce how to determine whether you belong to a Wood-Element Person, Fire-Element Person, Earth-Element Person, Metal-Element Person, Water-Element Person among the five elements through the Day Master.​

If the Heavenly Stem of the Day Master is Jia or Yi, then you are a Wood-Element Person；if it is Bing or Ding, you are a Fire-Element person；if it is Wu or Ji, you are an Earth-Element person；if it is Geng or Xin, you belong to a Metal-Element person；if it is Ren or Gui, you are a Water-Element person. Different Five-Element People often have different personalities and fortunes, which will be introduced to you in subsequent articles. However, it is worth noting that merely determining the five-element attribute of the Day Master is only a preliminary understanding of your five-element fate. To gain a deeper and more comprehensive insight into your own destiny, it is necessary to consider the generation and restriction relationships between the five elements of the Day Master and the surrounding stems and branches.
