Your BaZi birth monthDragon month (Clear and Bright to Start of Summer)

The Dragon month is the transitional Earth period between spring and summer: moist soil that stores traces of Wood and Water. Those born now tend to absorb a lot and give it shape, and to hold firm in times of change.

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. April 16 falls in the period of Clear and Bright: everything is fresh and lively.
