Tools & capabilities
Freebazi tools 2
compute_bazi_chartCompute a full Chinese Bazi (八字, Four Pillars of Destiny) chart from a birth date, time, and place. Returns the four pillars, Day Master, Ten Gods, Hidden Stems, Five Elements, Na Yin, Growth Stages, Shen Sha, branch relations, Luck Pillars, and the current year, computed with True Solar Time and historical daylight-saving handling. Provide a birth city (use search_cities to resolve it) for accurate true solar time, or pass longitude and utcOffset directly.search_citiesSearch the built-in city list (about 490 major world cities) by English or Chinese name. Returns matches with their country, longitude, and IANA time zone, so you can pass an exact city to compute_bazi_chart for accurate True Solar Time.
