Saju Fortune Reading
Saju fortune telling is a traditional Korean method of predicting fortune, and it is a system that interprets a person's personality, talents, and life flow based on their birth time. This method is based on the principles of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.
Composition of Saju Palja
Saju Palja consists of 8 characters that represent an individual's birth year, month, day, and time, each expressed in Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
- Heavenly Stems: 甲, 乙, 丙, 丁, 戊, 己, 庚, 辛, 壬, 癸 (10 characters)
- Earthly Branches: 子, 丑, 寅, 卯, 辰, 巳, 午, 未, 申, 酉, 戌, 亥 (12 characters)
These 8 characters are composed of 4 pillars (柱), which are called Year Pillar, Month Pillar, Day Pillar, and Hour Pillar, respectively.
Basic Principles of Saju Interpretation
1. Time Flow: From the Year Pillar to the Hour Pillar, it represents the flow of time from the past to the future.
2. Spatial Dimension:
- Year Pillar: 1st dimension (point)
- Month Pillar: 2nd dimension (line)
- Day Pillar: 3rd dimension (surface)
- Hour Pillar: 4th dimension (shape)
3. Ten Gods Analysis: Interprets the role of each character based on the Day Master.
4. Eight Trigrams Interpretation: Analyzes the symbols assigned to each stem and branch.

Precautions when interpreting
Saju fortune telling interpretation is complex and there are various methods, and results may vary depending on the interpreter. Therefore, it is important to approach it from an objective and scientific perspective rather than a superstitious or mystical approach.
Saju fortune telling can help understand an individual's potential and life flow, but it is advisable to use it as a reference rather than accepting it as absolute destiny.
Daewoon and Saeoon are important concepts in Saju Palja, each with different time ranges and influences.
Daewoon (大運)

Relationship between Daewoon and Saeoon
1. Interaction: Even if Daewoon is good, temporary difficulties may be experienced if Saeoon is bad, and conversely, even if Saeoon is good, it is difficult to completely avoid difficulties in the big picture if Daewoon is bad.
2. Importance of Interpretation: Accurate fortune telling is possible only when Daewoon and Saeoon are considered together for interpretation.
3. Difference in Influence: Daewoon has a long-term and large influence, while Saeoon has a short-term and specific influence.
When interpreting Saju Palja, it is important to consider both Daewoon and Saeoon, and through this, you can comprehensively understand the major flow of life and annual changes. However, it should be remembered that this interpretation is for reference only, and personal effort and choice are important rather than accepting it as absolute destiny.
