Zi Wei Dou Shu 紫微斗数, Purple Star Astrology: 12 palaces, 14 major stars, decade cycles and a full life reading, in seconds.
No approximations, no simplified western remake. The engine follows the plotting sequence recorded in the Ming dynasty compilation 紫微斗数全书, step by step.
Your solar birth date and hour are converted to the lunar calendar, the raw material of every classical chart.
The Life Palace is fixed from month and hour, the Five Element Bureau from its stem and branch. The whole wheel follows.
Zi Wei anchors the 14 majors, the year stem fires the Four Transformations, and the decade cycles are laid over the top.
Every star and every palace on this site has its own hand-written page: nature, career, love, and how it behaves in each of the twelve houses.
Self, siblings, marriage, children, wealth, health, travel, friends, career, property, fortune and parents. Each palace read with its opposite and triangle, the way the method demands.

The chart is the map. The Life Story is the reading of it.
Press Life Story after generating your chart and the site writes your 命书: a character portrait from the Life Palace and its 三方四正, all twelve palaces read in depth, every ten-year cycle laid out as chapters, and this year's forecast. The facts are computed first by the deterministic engine; the narrator is only allowed to describe what the engine placed. Interpretation with the arithmetic locked.
Zichart is built and maintained by Master Dee Goh in Singapore: one part classical method, one part working code, zero parts incense. The engine does the plotting so nobody has to take his word for it.
Is Zi Wei Dou Shu the same as BaZi?
What if I do not know my birth hour?
Is my birth data stored?
