甲戌 Jia Xu Day Pillar: A great tree on an autumn mountain
Jia Xu is a great tree (甲) rooted in the dry mountain soil of autumn (戌). Like a tree holding wide ground, it has the power to build wealth and a home base.

At a glance
| Day Master | 甲 Jia (Wood) |
|---|---|
| Day branch | 戌 Xu, the Dog (Earth) |

Personality
Upright and proud, with a clear view of reality. Sitting on Indirect Wealth, you see the big board where people and money flow and have a knack for seizing chances. A Direct Officer (辛) and Hurting Officer (丁) hidden in 戌 let you keep principles while still speaking your mind. The Nurture stage means you grow step by step under others' care.
Love and partner
With Indirect Wealth in the spouse palace, you bond deeply with active, capable partners. For men Wealth is the spouse star, so marriage ties tend to be clear. You like to lead in love; respecting your partner's pace and decisions makes it last.
Work and money
Work that sets up a big board and handles people and resources suits you: business, property, sales, management. Money comes when you move actively, but widening your base is safer than betting big at once.
Cautions and advice
A tree on dry earth easily lacks the water — learning and rest — that soaks its roots. Taking on too much out of ambition tires you, so make time to study and rest. Now and then let go of the stubbornness that never bends once decided.
Day pillars that click, and day pillars that clash
Stems and branches both combine: 己卯 Ji Mao. 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: 庚辰 Geng Chen. 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 Xu day come around?
Day pillars run in a sixty-day cycle. From October 2026 to the end of 2027, 甲戌 Jia Xu days fall 13 times: Sat, Dec 26, 2026; Wed, Feb 24, 2027; Sun, Apr 25, 2027; Thu, Jun 24, 2027; Mon, Aug 23, 2027; Fri, Oct 22, 2027; Tue, Dec 21, 2027; Sat, Feb 19, 2028; Wed, Apr 19, 2028; Sun, Jun 18, 2028; Thu, Aug 17, 2028; Mon, Oct 16, 2028; Fri, Dec 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 Xu 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. With your day branch: Three Harmony with your day branch — allies gather and strength builds.
- 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. With your day branch: Punishment — things to adjust and refine; Break — a plan may go off course once.
2027 month by month
Saju months change at the solar terms, not on the 1st. For a Jia Xu 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: February (壬寅), March (癸卯), June (丙午). The month that clashes with it: April (甲辰).

Zodiac signs that suit Jia Xu, and signs that clash
Counting from the day branch 戌, the Tiger (寅), Rabbit (卯), Horse (午) form a Six or Three Harmony and are read as easy matches; the Dragon (辰) 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.
