Career Path, Korean Saju 사주
In Korea you check the saju before a big move, and work is one of the things it's checked for most. The trouble is that everything useful about it is written in hanja, and the reading is usually spoken once, in a room you have to travel to.
This is that reading, written down and in English. Your saju read for working life: how you produce, how recognition reaches you, whether you're built for structure or your own thing, how money behaves in a chart like yours, and which daeun cycle you're standing in. Every character is translated where it appears.
What is inside
8 sectionsHow you actually produce. Your working style read from your ilgan and the gods around it, and the conditions that bring out your best work.
Why recognition lags, when it lags. What the chart says about how reward reaches you, and what tends to unblock it.
Structure, or your own thing. Whether your chart is built to operate inside a system or run its own, and what that means for the next role.
How money moves. Your earning pattern read from the wealth axis, and the risk posture that fits your chart.
Who opens doors for you. Whether your saju rises on its own steam or through backers, and the kind of person who tends to vouch for you.
Which cycle you're standing in. Your current daeun and the next, on a timeline, marked for the kind of move each favours.
When the money changes shape. Which of those cycles favour building income where you are, and which favour the risk.
The working, printed. Every character translated, the Korean solar time correction documented, the sources named. Your document closes with a one-page classical appendix: what a traditional practitioner, reading the same charts strictly by the old texts, would have ruled. Unsoftened, clearly framed, and separate from the reading's own guidance.
Every section closes on the decision itself: what the chart favours, what it makes expensive, and the window it points at. Tendencies and timing, never verdicts.
Who this reading is for
From the listing- after what your saju says about work, in a language you read
- facing a stay or go that careers advice keeps answering too generally
- told once, in a room, years ago, and unable to remember half of it
- unclear how income is supposed to arrive in a chart shaped like yours
- new to saju, and starting with the part of life that is currently loudest
- weighing a move abroad, or a move back, and wanting the timing on it
- after your daeun named, not described vaguely as a phase

NotesHow is this different from the BaZi Career Path reading?
Same chart, same eight sections, Korean framing. This one uses the saju vocabulary and gives the Korean reading of each character. Choose on which tradition you want to read in, not on which is more accurate.
Will it name specific industries?
It works from how your chart produces, earns and gets noticed, and it names the shapes of work that fit that, rather than handing over a list of job titles. A chart does not know what industries exist.
What if I do not know my birth time?
Write unknown. The hour pillar is withheld and the reading says plainly which parts it can and cannot speak to. Nothing is invented to fill the gap.
How is this different from a free chatbot reading?
Ask a chatbot for your chart and it invents one, then invents a different one tomorrow. The chart here is calculated by the same deterministic library every time, and the working is printed in the back so you can check it.
Does a caesarean or induced birth change the chart?
No. The chart is cast from the time you were born, however that happened.

Method and sources
The chart is computed with a deterministic astronomical library, corrected for true solar time at your birth longitude. The question is then read against that chart alone, grounded in the classical texts named in the document, and reviewed before the file is issued.
