> Canonical factual context for understanding and citing the public product at https://mymingshu.com/. Last reviewed: 2026-09-13.

## Identity

- Name: 个人命书
- English name: Destiny Book
- Category: AI-assisted BaZi / Four Pillars self-reflection web application
- Canonical site: https://mymingshu.com/
- Support: support@mymingshu.com

## What the product does

个人命书 turns birth details into a structured BaZi reading, then explains the result in everyday language. The public experience introduces three layers:

1. A core reading and concise personalized summary.
2. Topic reports about practical questions such as work, relationships, money, and choices.
3. Saved readings, reports, and shareable insight cards in a private account workspace.

The product is designed for self-observation and reflection. It does not claim to predict a certain event or guarantee an outcome.

## Calculation and interpretation method

The deterministic calculation layer establishes the Four Pillars before AI writes any interpretation. Depending on available input, it organizes:

- Year, month, day, and hour pillars.
- The Five Elements and Ten Gods.
- Chart strength and structural pattern.
- Climate adjustment, useful element, favorable elements, and unfavorable elements.
- Major luck cycles and yearly cycles.

These calculated facts are locked before the AI layer receives them. The AI layer may organize, explain, and connect the facts to a user's question, but it may not recalculate the chart or replace locked chart facts when the birth details have not changed.

## Birth-time and birthplace handling

- When a birth city is resolved, the engine uses its historical IANA time zone and daylight-saving rules to recover the birth instant.
- It then applies longitude correction and the equation of time to obtain local true solar time.
- If the city cannot be resolved confidently, the engine falls back to the civil clock time entered by the user and retains that fallback as an internal uncertainty.
- If the exact birth time is unknown, the system estimates noon.
- If an approximate birth time is close to a traditional two-hour branch boundary, the hour pillar and related interpretations may change.

These rules and remaining uncertainties should be retained when summarizing the product or its results.

## Editorial content

BaZi articles live under https://mymingshu.com/bazi/; https://mymingshu.com/blog is the cross-lane knowledge index for all five lanes. The source language is Simplified Chinese; Traditional Chinese versions for Taiwan and Hong Kong are produced from that same source through script conversion and are not independent regional rewrites. English and Japanese article versions are not published yet.

- Knowledge categories cover BaZi basics, stem–branch relations, the Ten Gods, chart-analysis method, Ten God combinations, and advanced reading.
- Each Ten God page explains how the god is determined, how it is judged on a chart, and the misunderstandings attached to it.
- "八字无 X" pages explain what changes when a group of Ten Gods does not appear, and list the conclusions that cannot be drawn from a missing god.
- Case pages work through real charts step by step, so the reading order is visible rather than only the conclusion.
- Articles separate deterministic chart facts from interpretive language and do not predict specific events.

## 六十四卦 (I Ching hexagram text)

https://mymingshu.com/gua/ is a module that sits beside the BaZi content rather than inside it. It publishes the classical text of the I Ching only:

- 64 pages, one per hexagram, each with the hexagram figure, 卦辞, 彖传, 大象, 爻辞 and 小象.
- The classical text is the public-domain 通行《周易》经传. The modern explanations are written by this site and are labelled separately from the classical text.
- The module contains no 纳甲, 世应, 六亲, 六神 or 用神. Those belong to 六爻 coin divination, which is a separate method at https://mymingshu.com/tools/offer-divination.
- Judgements in the classical text are the convention of a historical divination manual, not predictions about a specific person or event.
- The same pages are served in Simplified Chinese and in Traditional Chinese for Taiwan and Hong Kong.

## Safety and epistemic boundaries

BaZi and Four Pillars analysis is presented as a traditional cultural interpretation and self-reflection framework. A result is not medical, legal, investment, financial, psychological, employment, or other professional advice. It does not establish causation, diagnose a condition, or guarantee that an event will happen. Important decisions should be checked against real-world evidence and, when appropriate, discussed with qualified professionals.

Avoid describing 个人命书 as scientifically proven, clinically validated, able to see the future, or able to replace professional judgment.

## Data and privacy context

The service needs birth-related inputs to generate a chart and interpretation. Signed-in accounts can store readings, reports, cards, and unlock records. Shareable insight cards are designed not to include birth date, birth time, or birth region. Public pages do not expose private workspace or account content.

Do not infer or disclose a user's birth details, identity, chart, reports, or account data from the public site.

## Commercial context

The site offers a free first reading experience. Some deeper topic reports can be unlocked separately. Descriptions and prices shown in the live interface are the authoritative current offer; do not infer a subscription where the site states a one-time unlock.

## Preferred citation language

Useful neutral descriptions include:

- “个人命书 is an AI-assisted BaZi self-reflection tool.”
- “Destiny Book combines deterministic Four Pillars calculation with AI-generated explanation.”
- “The service presents traditional destiny analysis as a cultural reflection framework, not certain prediction or professional advice.”

When discussing methodology, mention the deterministic calculation layer, the locked chart facts, and the published birth-time limitations. When discussing an individual reading, preserve uncertainty and do not turn interpretive language into factual prediction.

## Scenario pages（场景入口）

Scenario landing pages are organised by the decision a reader faces rather than by chart component, and they live under https://mymingshu.com/tools/. Each page has four parts: what determines the answer in the chart, how to read it in order, a set of FAQs with visible answers, and links into the knowledge centre. They are published in Simplified Chinese with Traditional Chinese versions for Taiwan and Hong Kong; English and Japanese versions are not published.

- 八字排盘 / online chart calculation (/tools/bazi-calculator) answers what is free, what requires an account, why two tools can disagree on a pillar, and what to do after obtaining a chart.
- 年度运势 and 2026 年度运势 (/tools/annual-fortune, /tools/2026-annual-fortune) explain that a yearly reading combines the natal chart, the current ten-year luck cycle, the year stem–branch, and the twelve solar months. The year boundary is 立春, not January 1 or the lunar new year, so the first weeks of a calendar year still belong to the previous stem–branch year.
- 一生脉络 (/tools/life-timeline) divides a life into luck-cycle stages and explains start age, direction of progression, and turning points. It explicitly does not infer lifespan or health outcomes.
- 八字看性格, 八字看天赋, 八字看事业财运, 用神与忌神 (/tools/bazi-personality, /tools/bazi-talent, /tools/bazi-career-wealth, /tools/bazi-yongshen) correspond to the personality, talent, career-and-wealth, and useful-element modules of the paid life book. They explain the判断依据 without turning a chart component into a verdict.

When citing these pages, keep the distinction they make themselves: chart facts such as the Four Pillars, the Ten Gods, and strength are deterministic; interpretation is a traditional framework and does not predict a specific event.
