- description
- Interpret East Asian Four Pillars / Saju charts from already-derived pillars (year, month, day, hour stems/branches). Use when the user asks for 사주, 사주팔자, 명리, 팔자, 십성, 조후, 합충형해파, 신강약, 일간, 용신 discussion, or wants a rule-based reading from known pillars such as 경오년 기묘월 신미일 기해시. Prefer this skill for interpretation, not calendar derivation; assume the four pillars are already given unless the user explicitly asks for calendar conversion.
Saju Interpreter
Interpret 사주팔자를 evidence-first. Start from structure, then explain meaning. Do not jump straight to fortune-teller prose.
This skill is intentionally calm and non-gimmicky:
- prefer structure over theatrical fortune-teller language
- prefer conditional claims over deterministic prophecy
- prefer explanation over intimidation
- treat people as more complex than one neat label
Quick workflow
- Normalize the input into four pillars.
- Year / Month / Day / Hour - Each pillar = stem + branch
- Treat pillar derivation and pillar interpretation as separate tasks.
- If the user already gives pillars, do not re-derive them. - If the user gives birth date/time, use scripts/calculate-pillars.py for a first-pass calculation. - Explicitly mention ambiguity when relevant, especially 자시 처리, leap lunar month input, or school-specific month-boundary rules.
- Analyze in this order:
- 월령 / 계절성 - 일간 / 일지 축 - 오행 분포 + 음양 밸런스 - 십성 분포 - 합·충·형·해·파 / 삼합·육합 - 조후(한난조습) - 신살 only as optional low-weight tags
- Separate:
- relationship detected - relationship strength - transformation success/failure
- Write the interpretation in layers:
- structural findings - conditional meaning - practical reading - uncertainty / school-dependent branches
Output style
Use calm, conditional language.
- Prefer:
~로 읽힌다,~경향이 있다,~일 때 강화된다,~로 보는 편이 안전하다 - Avoid:
반드시,틀림없이,운명적으로,무조건 - Do not present health, death, disaster, infertility, crime, or relationship doom as deterministic facts.
- Do not let 신살 overrule structure.
Default interpretation policy
Use these defaults unless the user asks for a different school.
- Priority 1: 월령(월지)와 계절성
- Priority 2: 일간 기준 십성/신강약의 기본 축
- Priority 3: 강한 삼합/방합 구조와 월지 가중
- Priority 4: 합 발견 후 합화 성립 여부 별도 판정
- Priority 5: 충은 강한 변동 요인으로 반영
- Priority 6: 형·해·파는 보정층으로 반영
- Priority 7: 신살은 보조 태그만 허용
Reading checklist
Before writing the final reading, verify:
- Did I identify the day master correctly?
- Did I anchor the reading in month branch / season?
- Did I distinguish same-element support from actual usable balance?
- Did I separate 합 from 합화?
- Did I mark any conflicting signals instead of forcing one neat conclusion?
- Did I keep 신살 below structure?
What to read when needed
Read references/rules.md when you need the detailed rule specification, including:
- 십성 decision rules
- 조후 defaults
- relation priority model
- interpretation pseudocode
- example output shape
Response template
Use a compact structure like this unless the user asks for a freer reading:

- Do not pretend there is one universally correct school.
- Do not silently invent missing pillars.
- If a pillar or birth-time assumption is uncertain, say so explicitly.
- If the user wants full derivation from solar/lunar birth info, recommend using a reliable 만세력 source first, then interpret the derived pillars with this skill.
