丙申 Bing Shen Day Pillar: The evening sun over autumn fields
Bing Shen is the sun (丙) over the hard metal of autumn (申). As evening light colours the fields, this pillar is active and many-talented.

Personality
Bright and sociable, interested in many fields and talented in many. Sitting on Indirect Wealth, you range widely and read money flows well. An Eating God (戊) and Seven Killings (壬) in 申 mean you make money from talent, with responsibility and pressure following along. The Illness stage makes you delicate inside, however bright outside.
Love and partner
With Indirect Wealth in the spouse palace, you meet active, capable partners; for men marriage ties tend to be clear. Your attention scatters easily, so keep up shared time and promises.
Work and money
Work where you meet people and keep moving suits you: sales, trade, broadcasting, travel, service. Money tends to come by many routes as you stay busy.
Cautions and advice
Starting many things can weaken your finish. Set priorities and finish one thing at a time. Learning and supporters — the Wood that feeds your fire — make your energy last.
Day pillars that click, and day pillars that clash
Stems and branches both combine: 辛巳 Xin Si. With a stem combination and a Six Harmony at once (天合地合), these pairs are drawn to each other and mesh naturally.
Stems and branches both clash: 壬寅 Ren Yin. The branches clash and the stems collide too, so methods and pace differ and tension arises easily — though such pairs can also spur each other to grow.
Real compatibility looks at both whole charts, each person's useful element and the luck you go through together, not one day pillar. See how compatibility works.
When does a Bing Shen day come around?
Day pillars run in a sixty-day cycle. From October 2026 to the end of 2027, 丙申 Bing Shen days fall 13 times: Wed, Nov 18, 2026; Sun, Jan 17, 2027; Thu, Mar 18, 2027; Mon, May 17, 2027; Fri, Jul 16, 2027; Tue, Sep 14, 2027; Sat, Nov 13, 2027; Wed, Jan 12, 2028; Sun, Mar 12, 2028; Thu, May 11, 2028; Mon, Jul 10, 2028; Fri, Sep 8, 2028; Tue, Nov 7, 2028 (by the local calendar date). A day that repeats your own day pillar is read as a day when your Day Master is strong — some use it to start something important or to take stock.
What 2026 and 2027 mean for a Bing Shen day pillar
- 2026, the 丙午 Bing Wu year: the stem 丙 is your Friend and the branch 午 is your Rob Wealth, so it is a year when your own drive and sense of competition grow. No combination or clash with your day branch, so the year runs fairly calmly.
- 2027, the 丁未 Ding Wei year: the stem 丁 is your Rob Wealth and the branch 未 is your Hurting Officer, so it is a year when your own drive and sense of competition grow. No combination or clash with your day branch, so the year runs fairly calmly.
2027 month by month
Saju months change at the solar terms, not on the 1st. For a Bing Shen day pillar we calculated the ten god of each month's stem and how the month's branch meets your day branch. Months that combine with your day branch: April (甲辰), May (乙巳), December (壬子). The month that clashes with it: February (壬寅).

Zodiac signs that suit Bing Shen, and signs that clash
Counting from the day branch 申, the Rat (子), Dragon (辰), Snake (巳) form a Six or Three Harmony and are read as easy matches; the Tiger (寅) clashes with it, so pace and style differ. A zodiac sign is only the other person's year branch, so real compatibility needs both whole charts.
