About Bazi
BaZi, which in Chinese means eight characters, is calculated from the Year, Month, Day and Hour of a person’s birth. BaZi is also sometimes called Four Pillars of Destiny - it is the same system, just two different names.
BaZi was first formalised in China during the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD) and further developed over time. It drew on pre-existing understandings of the world that had already informed Chinese thinking for over a thousand years. The core of the theory is Yin and Yang and the relationships between Five Elements – Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water.
The Five Elements interact in three main ways. Most simply, the elements may support, weaken or clash each other. Influences that come from ten year Luck Cycles and specific years also interact with our BaZi chart. Our upbringing, culture and life experiences also influence how we react to different situations we face through life.
BaZi Life Analysis
The BaZi Chart is just a blueprint of potential. It does however enable an accurate indication of the ups and downs of life - what we do with those ups and downs is up to us.
If you know a period of smooth sailing is coming up, when you will face fewer obstacles, then it makes sense to plan significant events during this time. Go for the promotion, change jobs, embark on a new course of study, move overeseas, or whatever it is you plan to do. On the other hand there will be times when it is better to focus on preparation, setting the groundwork for future changes, rather than making bold moves, hitting brick walls and expending your resources unnecesarily.
I use BaZi analysis to help people problem-solve life issues that they are facing, whether in relationships, career, health or general direction in life. This is very much an interactive process. I aim to help you to clarify what you want to achieve and then find ways to reach those goals, in ways that are compatible with the strengths and challenges of your BaZi chart.

I will need your Birth Date (including the Hour if you know it) and your Place of Birth, together with an indication of what you would like to focus on. This might be relationships, health, career or general life direction. The clearer your focus, the better I will be able to assist you. You may also include specific questions at this time, although there will be further opportunity to ask questions during our meeting.
Once I have your request and birth details, I will be in touch (Email or Phone) to arrange a time for the consultation. We can meet by Zoom, Skype or Facetime and the consultation will be about 45 minutes' duration.
While I aim to address your issue in the one session, you may request a further session if there are other issues you wish to discuss or if you feel you would benefit from ongoing support.
