What is my day master?
Your day master is the top character of your day pillar, the pillar for the day you were born. Saju readings treat it as the point that stands for you.
The top character of the day pillar
The day pillar has two characters, a stem on top and a branch below. The stem is the day master. If your day pillar is Gap-ja, your day master is Gap.
Ten possible day masters
There are ten stems, Gap, Eul, Byeong, Jeong, Mu, Gi, Gyeong, Sin, Im, and Gye, so a day master is one of ten. Each carries one element and one polarity. Gap is yang wood, Eul is yin wood, Byeong is yang fire, and the rest pair up the same way.
Why it is the reference point
A chart has eight characters, and their relations only make sense once one of them is the fixed point. Saju takes the stem of the birth day as the self and asks what position the other seven hold relative to it.
Finding it needs only the day pillar, and the day pillar comes from the birth date. You can know your day master even if you do not know your birth time.
