甲辰 Jia Chen Day Pillar: The blue dragon on rich spring earth

By Data Saju · Published October 3, 2026 · Updated November 5, 2026

Jia Chen is a great tree (甲) on the moist earth of spring (辰). 甲 is blue-green and 辰 is the Dragon, so it is also called the Blue Dragon (靑龍) — a grand, vigorous pillar.

At a glance

Personality

Big ambitions and drive, with a feel for handling people and money on a large scale. Sitting on Indirect Wealth, you see the whole board, and Rob Wealth (乙) and a Direct Resource (癸) in 辰 give sturdy roots and a capacity to learn. It carries a White Tiger: traditionally strong energy that warned of injury, read today as the drive to push big things through. The Decline stage makes you move with seasoned judgment.

Love and partner

With Indirect Wealth in the spouse palace, you bond deeply with active, capable partners; for men marriage ties tend to be clear. Big ventures can make you neglect the relationship, so set aside time together.

Work and money

Work that sets up a big board and moves people and resources suits you: business, management, property, trade. You can earn big and also spend big, so you need safeguards.

Cautions and advice

Overflowing energy tempts you to overdo it or overreach. Talk big decisions through once more with someone you trust. When there is much physical work or travel, look after your safety.

Day pillars that click, and day pillars that clash

Stems and branches both combine: 己酉 Ji You. 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: 庚戌 Geng Xu. 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 Jia Chen day come around?

Day pillars run in a sixty-day cycle. From October 2026 to the end of 2027, 甲辰 Jia Chen days fall 13 times: Thu, Nov 26, 2026; Mon, Jan 25, 2027; Fri, Mar 26, 2027; Tue, May 25, 2027; Sat, Jul 24, 2027; Wed, Sep 22, 2027; Sun, Nov 21, 2027; Thu, Jan 20, 2028; Mon, Mar 20, 2028; Fri, May 19, 2028; Tue, Jul 18, 2028; Sat, Sep 16, 2028; Wed, Nov 15, 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 Jia Chen day pillar

• 2026, the 丙午 Bing Wu year: the stem 丙 is your Eating God and the branch 午 is your Hurting Officer, so it is a year when you express yourself and start new things. 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 Hurting Officer and the branch 未 is your Direct Wealth, so it is a year when you express yourself and start new things. 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 Jia Chen 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: August (戊申), September (己酉), December (壬子). The month that clashes with it: October (庚戌).

Zodiac signs that suit Jia Chen, and signs that clash

Counting from the day branch 辰, the Rat (子), Monkey (申), Rooster (酉) form a Six or Three Harmony and are read as easy matches; the Dog (戌) 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.

The facts table, the matching pillars, the dates, the 2026–2027 flow and the zodiac signs all come from the same engine as our readings; the month pillars were re-checked against the solar-term times. A day pillar is two of the eight characters in a chart, so the same day pillar reads quite differently depending on the year, month and hour of birth.
