1.What 丙寅 means
丙寅 combines the heavenly stem 丙 (Hinoe) with the earthly branch 寅 (Tora). 丙 is likened to the sun, and 寅 to the tiger.
The branch below (Wood) feeds the stem on top (Fire), a generating pairing. Supported from the ground up, this is a stable eto that easily attracts help.
2.Nacchin: Fire in the Furnace
The nacchin (納音, “sound element”) of 丙寅 is Fire in the Furnace. Fire burning in a furnace: the power to forge and transform, warming everything around it. The nacchin describes the essence of a birth-year eto; read more in the sixty eto and nacchin.
3.Personality when your day pillar is 丙寅
In Four Pillars astrology, the eto of your birth day (the day pillar) stands for you and for your marriage. Bright and cheerful, you have no hidden side. Passionate and quick to act, you naturally lift everyone's spirits.
The day branch (寅) shows your inner self, your private face and your bond with a spouse. Inside you carry the nature of the Tiger: A tiger is said to run a thousand ri and return a thousand ri. Tiger people are bold, brave challengers overflowing with energy.
On the other hand: Your feelings show on your face and you get bored easily. Fine detail and steady routine are not your strong points.
4.Born in a 丙寅 year
If your year pillar is 丙寅, you are said to inherit the qualities of the sun and of the Tiger in your social role and family character. For the personality of your birth animal, see Year of the Tiger.
