壬辰 · 六十甲子第 29 位
Ren Chen (壬辰) is number 29 in the cycle of sixty stem-and-branch pairs that numbers years, months, days and hours: the stem Ren (壬), yang Water, on top of the Dragon branch, Chen (辰).
What these words mean
- BaZi (八字): Chinese "four pillars" astrology. The moment you were born is written as four pillars, for the year, the month, the day and the hour.
- Pillar: a pair of symbols: a stem written on top and a branch below it. Your year pillar is the pair for your year of birth, and your day pillar the pair for your day of birth. Four pillars make eight symbols, which is what BaZi means: "eight characters".
- Stem (天干, Heavenly Stem): the top symbol of a pillar. There are ten. Each is one of the five elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water) in its yang or its yin form.
- Branch (地支, Earthly Branch): the bottom symbol of a pillar. There are twelve, each with an animal sign. The branch of your year pillar is your zodiac animal.
- Yang and yin: the two forms of each element. Yang is the bigger, bolder form (Wood as a towering tree), and yin the finer, gentler one (Wood as flowers and vines).
- Day Master (日主): the stem of your day pillar. It stands for you, and the rest of the chart is read in relation to it.
- Hidden stems (藏干): every branch holds one to three stems inside it. The strongest is called its principal qi (本气). The others are its middle qi and residual qi.
- Ten Gods (十神): the names for how any stem relates to your Day Master, such as Direct Officer or Rob Wealth. Each one stands for a part of life: work, money, people or support.
- Growth stages (十二长生): twelve stages, from Birth through Zenith to Tomb and on to Gestation, that describe how strong a stem is on a given branch, like the stages of a life.
- The Void (空亡): the two branches that a group of ten pillars leaves out. Whatever falls on them counts for less, good or bad.
- Nayin (纳音): an old element name, such as Gold in the Sea, that each pair of neighboring pillars in the cycle of sixty shares.

Ren Chen: yang Water on top of the Dragon branch
纳音、旬与空亡 Nayin, group of ten and the Void
| 纳音 Nayin | 长流水 Long-Flowing Water |
|---|---|
| 所在旬 Group of ten | 甲申旬，旬中第 9 位 The group headed by Jia Shen, number 9 of 10 |
| 空亡 Void | 午未（甲申旬十干配不到的两支） the Horse branch, Wu, and the Goat branch, Wei |
The sixty pillars run in six groups of ten, each headed by a Jia (甲) pillar. Ren Chen is the ninth pillar of the group headed by Jia Shen (甲申). Ten stems pair with only ten of the twelve branches, so each group leaves two branches out. Here they are the Horse branch, Wu (午), and the Goat branch, Wei (未). These two are the group's Void (空亡): whatever falls on them counts for less, good or bad. The nayin (纳音) of Ren Chen, the old element name it shares with its neighbor in the cycle, is Long-Flowing Water (长流水).
壬辰作日柱 As a day pillar
生在壬辰日，日主是壬水，坐在辰上。壬在辰的十二长生是“墓”；辰中藏戊（本气），对壬是七杀；乙（中气），对壬是伤官；癸（余气），对壬是劫财。日支又称夫妻宫，所以这几个字也落在婚姻那一宫。
If you were born on a Ren Chen day, your Day Master is Ren (壬), yang Water, and it sits on the Dragon branch, Chen (辰). In the twelve growth stages, Ren Water on the Dragon branch is at Tomb (墓): put away in storage, either kept safe or locked away. The Dragon branch holds three hidden stems. Wu Earth (戊), its principal qi, is your Seven Killings, which stands for pressure, nerve, rivals and hard-won authority. Yi Wood (乙), its middle qi, is your Hurting Officer, which stands for self-expression, talent on display and a streak of rebellion against rules. Gui Water (癸), its residual qi, is your Rob Wealth, which stands for close friends and partners: people who help you and also compete with you for the same money. The day branch is called the spouse palace, so these stems bear on your marriage.
与壬辰天克地冲的是丙戌、戊戌：天干相克，地支相冲。
Two pillars clash with Ren Chen on both levels at once (天克地冲): Bing Xu (丙戌) and Wu Xu (戊戌). In each, one stem controls the other, and the Dog branch clashes with the Dragon branch.
