A description for now. An interactive tool for this method is planned but not built yet.
Background
The Four Pillars of Destiny is a Chinese astrological and calendrical system for analysing a person’s life from their birth date and time. In Korea the same method is called Saju.
How it works
Each of the four "pillars" — year, month, day and hour — is one Heavenly Stem and one Earthly Branch. Their Five Phase (element) balance is then interpreted.
