Questions

What is saju (사주)?+

Saju — literally “four pillars” — is the Korean tradition of reading destiny from the year, month, day and hour of your birth. Each pillar holds a heavenly stem and an earthly branch, and together their five elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, water) describe your nature and the rhythm of your life. In Korea, people still check saju before weddings, new jobs and big moves.

How is it different from Western astrology or Chinese BaZi?+

Saju shares its roots with Chinese BaZi but grew its own Korean culture of interpretation — especially gunghap (궁합), compatibility readings that families have consulted for centuries. Unlike sun-sign astrology, saju uses all four pillars of your birth moment, so two people born on the same day can have very different charts.

I don't know my birth time. Can I still get a reading?+

Yes. Without the hour we read three pillars instead of four. Your core self (the Day Master), elements and luck cycles are still fully readable.

I wasn't born in Korea. Does that matter?+

Not at all. Enter your birthplace time zone and we convert your birth moment correctly — including daylight-saving time — before calculating your pillars.

How do I receive my reading?+
