An introduction to what Shijia Qimen examines and how it differs from Four Pillars of Destiny.
Shijia Qimen is a branch of Qimen Dunjia that uses an hourly chart to examine when to act and which direction to use.
This site builds a chart from the date, time, location, and purpose of your action, compares eight directions, and presents practical options in plain language.
Four Pillars is better suited to understanding personality, traits, and long-term cycles. Shijia Qimen is designed for a different question: at a specific time, in which direction should you move, and for what purpose?
Use the Four Pillars & Five Elements service when you want to understand yourself, and Shijia Qimen when you want to compare timing and direction for a specific action.
