DAY MASTER ANALYSIS

FOR 2017 丁酉
YEAR OF THE FIRE ROOSTER
 YEAR OF THE FIRE ROOSTER

The Year of the Fire Rooster, 2017, is ruled by the Fire Element
and as such, it becomes a Yin year. Also known as Ding
You (丁酉), its moniker will come to occupy the

丁
Annual Pillar spots for all BaZi charts when the
said lunar New Year unfolds.

Like every other year, there is much anticipation

酉
about potential ups and downs based on
individual BaZi charts. This year in particular
however, you cannot afford to rest on your laurels.
Instead, you will need to put in hard work and be patient
Ding You to achieve the desired results.
Fire Rooster
Due to the fact that all Rooster years are commonly
associated with integrity and efficiency, it would be the best
time to capitalise on career and financial possibilities. Of course
none of these would materialise without investing genuine hard
work – even if your BaZi chart suggests that you will have a
profitable year ahead.

This is where your Day Master comes into play. It magnifies any
upcoming trials and tribulations, and helps you prepare to take
on the profitable challenges, or cushion unavoidable blows. Your
individual Day Masters; Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water, all
react differently to the Ding You (丁酉) Annual Pillar. So let’s
take a closer look at how it will affect your personal Day Master.

JIA (甲) & YI (乙) WOOD DAY MASTERS

they are stiff and sometimes appear detached from what
YANG WOOD is going on around them. Yi (乙) Wood on the other hand
are not very ruthless and adaptability is one of their key
attributes.

Ding (丁) and You (酉) are the Output and Influence
structures to both Wood Day Masters. Implications such
as health issues are highly likely to arise. That said, it is
of utmost importance for those with these Day Masters

乙 Yi
to pay close attention to the slightest signs of chronic
diseases.

YIN WOOD The root of this problem can be traced back to working
too hard. Many challenges may be thrown their way at
work, but it would do their health some good to take the
pressure off the throttle. Take them as lessons instead of
being relentless in search for all the answers. A sign for
them to pump the brakes is when they feel that stress is
beginning to linger around.
