Four Pillars (BaZi) — Born Hour
Four Pillars (BaZi) — a Born Hour learn entry. Cultural structure, not a luck verdict.
Definition
Year, Month, Day, and Hour pillars organize birth time through heavenly stems and earthly branches. Born Hour requires the birth hour so the Hour Pillar is never estimated.
How to read it on a chart
The pillar grid and mingpan table map directly to this term: Year, Month, Day, and Hour each carry a stem–branch pair.
The Hour Pillar needs celestial time; Born Hour never invents a missing hour.
