Eight-character birthday analysis
To put it simply, 生辰八字 (Shēng Chén Bā Zì) is a Chinese astrological concept that refers to a person's unique set of year, month, day, and hour of birth. These four components are combined to create a "birth chart" that is said to reveal a person's personality traits, strengths, weaknesses, and overall destiny. Many people in China believe that understanding their 生辰八字 can provide insight into important decisions such as career choices, marriage, and health. As such, 生辰八字查询 (Shēng Chén Bā Zì Chá Xué) or "birth chart analysis" is a popular practice in China and other parts of the world with a Chinese cultural influence.
