Choose Gregorian or Lunar, enter the date and the hour, pick male or female, then type your birthplace and pick it from the list. The birthplace matters: the app converts clock time to true solar time, so a wrong longitude shifts the hour pillar. Press Cast Chart.
Twelve palaces run clockwise from the Life palace. Each holds its stars, their brightness, and the natal four transformations (禄 权 科 忌). Stars and palace names stay in Chinese on purpose — the reading around them is in English.
<A之B>) for that palace.Four transformations are read in three ways: entering a palace (入), clashing its opposite (冲), and pressing it from the opposite house (压, for 权). A 忌 in the opposite palace is a clash; a 权 there presses. Shining from the trine (照) is the lightest.
Tap a decadal span in the Luck Spans row, then a year. The card lays out topics — wealth, career, partnership, opening a shop, love, friends, children — and for each one a reading built from that layer’s transforms, plus the formula-library lines that fired.
A topic that this year’s transforms do not touch is left out, not filled with a generic sentence. Open Settings → Teaching mode to see the full detail: every transform, its landing palace, the combined reading, and the chart baseline.
The question box takes plain English or Chinese (“Will I change job this year?”). It maps the question to a topic, pulls the matching formula lines, and answers with the palace evidence behind it.

Reinstalling on the same device keeps the ID, so the code keeps working. A new device needs a new code.
Stars, palaces, stems and the characters 禄 权 科 忌 are never translated — they are the notation, not the prose. And every reading is a structure, not a verdict: the same configuration lands differently depending on what else is in the chart.
