Look inside
丙 (bǐng) is the third heavenly stem, a Yang stem of the Fire element. Its partner is 丁 (dīng), Yin Fire. Where 丁 is candle, lamp and hearth, 丙 is the fire nobody struck a match for: the sun. It comes up uninvited, lights every corner of the street in the same hour, and is the reason a washing line is worth having.
The traditional image is plain. Yang Fire is daylight, noon, a summer sky with nothing in it. It is also the red coin on the horizon at six in the morning, when the sea of cloud below a mountain road turns from grey to gold and a bus driver slows down without knowing why. Both are 丙. One is the sun at its height. The other is the sun arriving.
When a classical reader opens a chart, the first look goes to the month branch, the lower character of the second pillar from the left as the calculator at bazi.cards lays the chart out (year, month, day, hour). It names the season of birth and with it the month command (月令): the element that rules the weather around the Day Master. The old manual 淵海子平 calls the month the 提綱 (tí gāng) of the chart, the cord that lifts the whole net (月為提綱), and the 子平真詮 (Zǐ Píng Zhēn Quán) opens its chapter on the Useful God with the words 八字用神，專求月令: the Useful God of a chart is sought in the month command.
Two questions steer the reading. How much fuel has the sun in this season, and how much cooling or warming does it need? The second is the classical rule of temperature balance (調候). It often lands near what teachers name the Useful God, but they are separate ideas, and a chart can obey one while ignoring the other.
Look at the branch of your month pillar, the second column from the left on the calculator, and circle its season.
Sample pages. The book is laid out for 6 × 9 in pages; the EPUB and the online reader adapt to your screen.

Questions
How do I know that my Day Master is Bing?
The Day Master is the heavenly stem of the day you were born. If your Day pillar starts with 丙, for example 丙子 or 丙午, this is your book. The free calculator shows it in a few seconds.
Is this a reading of my own chart?
It describes every Bing chart, with six invented readers whose charts are worked through. A personal reading looks at all four pillars of your own chart and your Luck Pillars: see Readings.

Can I give it as a gift?
Yes. Choose “Give as a gift”, enter the recipient’s email and the day it should arrive. We email them a link on that day and send you a confirmation.
Can I get a refund?
Yes, whenever something is wrong on our side: a file that does not open or arrives damaged, the wrong book, or a double charge is refunded in full. Because the book is delivered at once, the 14-day right of withdrawal for digital content ends when you confirm instant delivery at checkout; where the law of your country gives a wider right (for example 7 days in Brazil), that law applies. Just write to support@bazi.cards with your order number. The full terms are on the refund policy page.
This book explains the symbolism of a BaZi chart in the classical Zi Ping tradition. It does not predict events and is not medical, financial or legal advice.
