Your BaZi birth monthRat month (Major Snow to Minor Cold)

The Rat month holds the winter solstice, the most yin point of the year, when Water peaks and yang begins to return. Those born now tend to be wise, deep thinkers with a gift for starting over. Water Day Masters gain strength, and Fire becomes the key to balance.

BaZi (the Four Pillars of Destiny) divides the year into twelve months by the 24 solar terms, and the branch of your birth month sets the season of your chart. January 3 falls in the period of Winter Solstice: the shortest day, after which the light returns.
