The Process

You send us your birth details.
We do the rest.

BaZi is Chinese astrology that maps your birth moment into a chart of elements and relationships. Before you order, here’s exactly what happens — from the information you submit to the box that arrives at your door.

1

Choose Your Level

Place your order

Select the product that fits what you’re looking for. Three levels, three different depths of analysis:

$128 — Crystal Bottle — You choose the stones yourself. No BaZi reading. Arrives with everything in the box.

$198 — Full Diagnosis — We read your chart. Five elements, ten gods, major cycles, the year ahead. Stones selected based on what your chart actually needs. Reading delivered as a PDF before the box ships.

$228 — Intention Focus — Same as Full Diagnosis, plus a specific question or life area you want the reading to go deeper on. You tell us what you’re working through. We write to that.

After checkout, you’ll receive an email with a short form to submit your birth information. You don’t need it before you order.

What We Need From You

Submit your birth information

The form asks for three things: your exact date of birth, the time you were born (hour and minute if you have it), and the city where you were born.

The city matters because traditional BaZi uses true solar time — not clock time. Longitude affects when solar noon actually falls at your location, which shifts the time columns of your chart. A birth in Seattle and a birth in Miami at the same clock time land on different solar times. We do that correction ourselves; you just need to tell us the city.

Time precision: the more exact, the better. One hour’s difference can shift the hour pillar of your chart, which affects the analysis. If you only have an approximate window (“morning” or “around 2pm”), give us that — we’ll note where the uncertainty affects the reading, rather than pretending it doesn’t.

BaZi chart — four pillars
3

3–5 Business Days

We read your chart

Once we have your birth information, we build your four pillars: Year, Month, Day, and Hour — each one a pair of characters that encodes a heavenly stem and earthly branch. From that structure we map your elemental balance (the ratio of Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal in your chart) and trace the ten-god relationships between your day master and everything else.

The stone selection comes from the elemental analysis. We’re looking for what’s missing or weak, then cross-referencing that with the eleven stones we carry. Each stone has a documented elemental alignment. Nothing is chosen by feel.

Then we write your Reading. The chart is the raw data. The Reading is where we explain what it means for how you operate — your default behavior under pressure, your money pattern, your relationship dynamic, where your energy concentrates and where it drains. We also cover your current major cycle and what 2026 specifically looks like for you.

Reading being written

Every reading is written from scratch for that chart. There is no template we fill in. This is why it takes 3–5 business days.

10–15 Business Days

Everything ships

Your Reading arrives first as a PDF — usually 3–5 business days after you submit your birth information. The physical order follows.

What’s in the box:

— Crystal bottle with your selected stones
— White quartz chips (base layer for the bottle)
— White sage bundle
— Five Gods of Wealth blessing card
— Calligraphy name card with your BaZi-derived Chinese name ($198 and $228 only)

The calligraphy name is not decorative. It’s a Chinese name derived from your elemental needs — chosen by stroke count and phonetic structure to reinforce what your chart is missing. You receive the name with an explanation of why those specific characters were chosen.

Everything included in the box

A tracking number goes to your email once the package ships. Delivery to the US takes 10–15 business days from ship date.

What you’ll need to have ready

You don’t submit anything at checkout. After your order goes through, we send you a form. Here’s what it asks for.

  • 01 Exact date of birth Year, month, day. Required for all orders.
  • 02 Birth time — as precise as possible Hour and minute preferred. An approximate window (“morning”) is accepted, but we’ll flag where it limits the analysis. Required for $198 and $228.
  • 03 Birth city City name is enough. We use it to calculate true solar time. Required for $198 and $228.
  • 04 Your intention — one sentence The specific area you want the reading to focus on. Required for $228 Intention Focus only.

Questions

Yes, but with a caveat worth knowing. The hour pillar of a BaZi chart is determined by birth time. One hour’s difference can change which pillar you fall into, which affects the ten-god relationships and the overall analysis. If you have an approximate window (“I was born in the morning” or “around 2–3pm”), submit that. We’ll note in the Reading specifically where that uncertainty affects our conclusions — we won’t pretend certainty we don’t have. If you have no information at all about your birth time, reach out before ordering and we can discuss what’s realistic.
Tell us your birth city and country. We handle the time zone and true solar time calculation. We have corrections for cities across the US, UK, Australia, Canada, and most major cities worldwide. If you were born somewhere unusual, just give us the city name and we’ll look it up.
Yes. At checkout, note that it’s a gift. Submit the recipient’s birth information (not yours) in the form. The Reading will be written for their chart. If you don’t have their birth time, see the answer above — approximate is workable. The calligraphy name card is included for $198 and $228 orders.
English. The calligraphy name card uses Chinese characters — those are explained in the Reading itself, so you’ll know what each character means and why it was chosen. If you need the full Reading in Chinese, contact us before ordering.
It varies by chart and tier. $198 Full Diagnosis runs approximately 10 sections covering your elemental profile, day master character, ten-god dynamics, major cycle, and the year ahead. $228 Intention Focus adds two or three sections that go deep on the specific area you asked about. There is no minimum word count — length follows what the chart actually has to say.
No. The chart is calculated using traditional four-pillar methodology. The Reading is written for your specific chart — the elemental balance, the ten-god relationships, the major cycle timing, the year-specific influences. Two people born in the same year with different birth times, cities, and genders get different charts and different readings. What you receive is specific to you, not assembled from generic passages.
BaZi is a Chinese system for reading a person’s birth chart — the same tradition that feng shui comes from, applied to a person instead of a space. You’ve probably heard of feng shui: the idea that the arrangement of a physical environment affects the people in it. BaZi works with the same five-element framework (Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal), but maps your birth moment into a chart that describes your natural tendencies, your energy patterns, and the timing of major life cycles. It’s been in continuous use for over a thousand years.

Ready to see what your chart says.

Most people order the Full Diagnosis first. The chart tells us what you need. We go from there.

You don’t need your birth time before you order — the form comes after checkout.
