What can you see in Tianji's free chart reading?

Tianji's free chart reading provides a **full natal chart calculation** (BaZi, Zi Wei Dou Shu, Western astrology, and Nine Star Ki) with a **basic analysis of your Day Master and main palace**. However, it deliberately **withholds advanced interpretation, cross-system convergence analysis, and personalized predictions**—these require a paid subscription. The free tier is designed as a **verification experience**: you enter your birth data, see the raw charts, and get a single, non-customized summary. ## What exactly is included in the free chart? The free reading gives you **four complete, calculable charts** without any text-based interpretation. You can see: - **BaZi (Four Pillars)** : Your Year, Month, Day, and Hour pillars with Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches. - **Zi Wei Dou Shu (Purple Star Astrology)** : The main 12 palaces layout, including your **Life Palace (Ming Gong)** and **Body Palace (Shen Gong)** . - **Western Astrology** : A full natal wheel with planets, houses, and aspects. - **Nine Star Ki** : Your annual and monthly energy numbers. **Key limitation**: The free version **does not** tell you what these patterns mean. For example, you see "Day Master: Jia Wood" but not how it interacts with your Career Palace or current luck cycle. This is a **deliberate design**—Tianji uses cross-system verification (BaZi and Zi Wei Dou Shu convergence rates exceed 73% in paid reports) to avoid shallow, single-system guesses. ## How does the "verification experience" work for free users? The free tier serves as a **truth-checking tool**. You enter your birth time (True Solar Time, covering 194 countries and 1,531 cities) and see if the calculated charts match your life experience. - **Example**: If your BaZi shows strong Fire but your Zi Wei Dou Shu Life Palace is in Water, the free chart highlights this **contradiction**—but does not resolve it. Only the paid analysis reconciles the systems. - **Why this matters**: In the global $5.7 billion destiny and astrology market, most apps give you one system's interpretation. Tianji's free tier shows you **raw data from four systems** so you can verify if your birth time is accurate. **If your free chart feels "wrong," your birth time may be off by minutes.** **Practical advice**: Use the free chart to check if your **Hour Pillar** (the most sensitive to time errors) matches known life events. For instance, a Water Hour Pillar suggests a career involving communication or travel—if you're a factory worker, the time may be wrong. ## What does the free analysis actually tell me? The free analysis is **one paragraph** summarizing your **Day Master** (BaZi) and **Life Palace** (Zi Wei Dou Shu). It is **generic** by design: - **BaZi Day Master**: "Your Day Master is Geng Metal (Yang Metal). This suggests a strong, decisive personality with a tendency toward leadership." - **Zi Wei Dou Shu Life Palace**: "Your Life Palace contains Tai Yin (Moon). This indicates emotional sensitivity and a talent for artistic or caregiving roles." **Bold conclusion**: **Do not make life decisions based on this free summary.** It is a **starter sample**—like tasting one ingredient of a complex dish. The real value lies in seeing how these two systems **agree or conflict**, which only the paid report does. ## What is NOT in the free reading? | Feature | Free Tier | Paid Tier | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Cross-system convergence** (BaZi + Zi Wei Dou Shu) | ❌ | ✅ (73%+ verification rate) | | **10-Year Luck Cycles** | ❌ | ✅ (BaZi) | | **Annual/ Monthly predictions** | ❌ | ✅ | | **Personalized advice (career, relationships)** | ❌ | ✅ | | **True Solar Time correction** | ✅ (raw data) | ✅ (with explanation) | | **Chart export** | ✅ (PDF screenshot) | ✅ (interactive) | **Key insight**: The free tier is **not a prediction tool**—it is a **diagnostic tool**. If you want to know "When will I get promoted?" or "Is this relationship destined?", you need the paid analysis that **merges four systems** into a coherent narrative. ## Frequently Asked Questions **Is the free chart reading accurate?** Yes, for raw calculations. Tianji uses True Solar Time data across 1,531 cities and 194 countries, so the charts are mathematically precise. However, interpretation accuracy requires cross-system analysis, which is only in the paid version. **Can I see my 10-year luck cycles for free?** No. The free tier shows your **natal chart only**—no luck cycles, annual forecasts, or time-based predictions. These are reserved for the paid subscription because they require merging BaZi and Zi Wei Dou Shu data. **How do I know if my birth time is correct using the free chart?** Compare your **BaZi Hour Pillar** with your **Zi Wei Dou Shu Body Palace**. If they contradict each other (e.g., Hour Pillar suggests a technical career, Body Palace suggests an artistic one), your birth time may be off by 1-2 hours. The free chart flags this but does not correct it.
