Question 1

Why is my sidereal sun sign different from my normal one?

Accepted Answer

Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac, which is tied to the seasons and starts at the spring equinox. Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac, which is tied to the actual constellations. The two have drifted about 24 degrees apart since they were aligned, so roughly four people in five get a different sign in each. Neither is wrong; they measure different things.

Question 2

What is a BaZi day master?

Accepted Answer

In Chinese BaZi, your birth is written as four pillars of two characters each, covering the year, month, day and hour. The heavenly stem of the day pillar is the day master, and it stands for you. It is one of ten: a yin or yang form of wood, fire, earth, metal or water. Everything else in the chart is read in relation to it.

Question 3

Do I need my exact birth time?

Accepted Answer

No, but it unlocks about half the reading. Without a time you still get your Sun in both zodiacs, your life path, your day master and your year animal. With a time and a place you also get your rising sign, your exact Moon and birth star, your Human Design type and bodygraph, and your Gene Keys.

Question 4

Is Six Mirrors free, and does it store my birth details?

Accepted Answer

It is free and needs no account. Your birth date, time and place are computed in your own browser and stay there. The only thing sent anywhere is a one-way fingerprint of the birth moment so that charts can be counted; it carries no name, no email and no way to reach you.

Question 5

What does it mean when several systems agree?

Accepted Answer

The six traditions share no history and no mathematics. When two or more of them independently point at the same theme in one birth, Six Mirrors names that as a thread and shows every fact it rests on. The convergence is the finding, rather than any single system's verdict.
