Wood is not a personality type but a checkable distribution: its exact place among the ten stems, twelve branches, hidden stems and the combination tables, all computed.
| Stems | 甲 Yang Wood (yang)、乙 Yin Wood (yin) |
|---|---|
| Main-qi branches | 寅 Tiger、卯 Rabbit (2) |
| Hidden in | 5 of 12 branches contain Wood in their hidden stems |
| Trine | 亥 Pig卯 Rabbit未 Goat (Wood trine) |
| Seasonal meeting | 寅 Tiger卯 Rabbit辰 Dragon (East) |
| Growth starts | 甲 Yang Wood starts at 亥 Pig; 乙 Yin Wood starts at 午 Horse |
The direction of each relation comes from the engine ten-gods function; this page does not retype a second cycle table.
Two of the ten stems are Wood, one yang and one yin. Each has one five-harmony pairing; the resulting element comes from the engine table and is never Wood itself.
| Pairing | Combines into |
|---|---|
| 甲 Yang Wood + 己 Yin Earth | combines into 土 Earth |
| 乙 Yin Wood + 庚 Yang Metal | combines into 金 Metal |
The Hai-Mao-Wei trine forms the Wood frame, and its first branch is exactly the growth start of 甲 (cross-checked against the engine stage table). The East meeting Yin-Mao-Chen runs by direction: its first two branches carry Wood as main qi, and the closing branch 辰 is the tomb of the 水 trine.
Most "element personality" pages online print the same templated traits. This page only prints numbers you can check against the engine: which stems, which branches, how often hidden, and how the cycle runs. Trait tables are not facts, so this site does not make them.
Every enumerable component of ba zi has its own page here. Each page is computed by the same engine and can be checked item by item — none of it is a personality table.
