癸未 Gui Wei Day Pillar: Welcome rain on parched ground
Gui Wei is welcome rain (癸) falling on the dry earth of midsummer (未). As it soaks in and brings the land to life, this pillar carries devotion and service.

At a glance
| Day Master | 癸 Gui (Water) |
|---|---|
| Day branch | 未 Wei, the Goat (Earth) |
| Ten god of the branch | Seven Killings — strength under pressure and responsibility close at hand |

| Void | 申酉 |
Personality
Deep and very patient, you find meaning in helping others. Sitting on Seven Killings, you are highly responsible and quietly endure hard situations. An Eating God (乙) and Indirect Wealth (丁) in 未 add skill and practical sense. The Tomb stage gives the power to gather and store.
Love and partner
With Seven Killings in the spouse palace, you are drawn to partners with strength and presence. For women Officer is the spouse star, so marriage ties tend to be clear. You tend to endure and accommodate, so a relationship where you also voice your needs lasts.
Work and money
Work that helps and saves people suits you: healthcare, social welfare, education, research, service. You save carefully.
Cautions and advice
Water soaking into dry earth tires and depletes easily. Rather than granting every request, practise saying no. Keep learning and reliable help nearby — the Metal that refills your water.
Day pillars that click, and day pillars that clash
Stems and branches both combine: 戊午 Wu Wu. 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: 丁丑 Ding Chou, 己丑 Ji Chou. 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 Gui Wei day come around?
Day pillars run in a sixty-day cycle. From October 2026 to the end of 2027, 癸未 Gui Wei days fall 14 times: Thu, Nov 5, 2026; Mon, Jan 4, 2027; Fri, Mar 5, 2027; Tue, May 4, 2027; Sat, Jul 3, 2027; Wed, Sep 1, 2027; Sun, Oct 31, 2027; Thu, Dec 30, 2027; Mon, Feb 28, 2028; Fri, Apr 28, 2028; Tue, Jun 27, 2028; Sat, Aug 26, 2028; Wed, Oct 25, 2028; Sun, Dec 24, 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 Gui Wei day pillar
- 2026, the 丙午 Bing Wu year: the stem 丙 is your Direct Wealth and the branch 午 is your Indirect Wealth, so it is a year when money, practical gains and activity increase. With your day branch: Six Harmony with your day branch — bonds and agreements form easily.
- 2027, the 丁未 Ding Wei year: the stem 丁 is your Indirect Wealth and the branch 未 is your Seven Killings, so it is a year when money, practical gains and activity increase. The stem clashes with your Day Master, so your thinking may waver. 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 Gui Wei 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: March (癸卯), June (丙午), November (辛亥). The month that clashes with it: January 2028 (癸丑).

Zodiac signs that suit Gui Wei, and signs that clash
Counting from the day branch 未, the Rabbit (卯), Horse (午), Pig (亥) form a Six or Three Harmony and are read as easy matches; the Ox (丑) 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.
