Understanding Your Daily Score
Your daily fortune score (0-100) is calculated using a proprietary BaZi engine that analyzes the relationship between today's day pillar and your zodiac sign. The engine evaluates seven relationship types: Three Harmony (三合, base 88), Six Harmony (六合, base 82), Neutral (平和, base 60), Six Break (相破, base 54), Six Harm (相害, base 50), Punishment (相刑, base 42), and Six Clash (相冲, base 30). Five Element interactions and NaYin (纳音) micro-adjustments refine the score further. Scores of 78+ indicate an Excellent day, 55-77 a Good day, and below 55 suggests a Challenging day. Eight life dimensions are assessed: Career, Love, Wealth, Health, Travel, Study, Social, and Energy.
