Original app lesson · freely available here

Three sentences after each lesson
1. What I understoodThe lesson point in your own words
2. What I see in my chartName the pillar and the character
3. What I am unsure ofSave it to look up next time

Look back the next day, after a week, and after a month.

01

Why sources matter

Bazi terminology varies between eras and schools. Ask where a claim comes from before treating it as settled.

Each lesson lists its sources. A difference from what you learned elsewhere may just be a different school.

02

What to write in a note

Do not copy the text. Write three things: the one sentence you understood, an example from your own chart, and what you are still unsure about.

Three lines. Longer notes do not get reread.

03

How to schedule review

Review the next day, again after a week, again after a month. Spacing beats one long session.

The app can schedule each lesson so you do not have to remember.

Three lines per note: what you understood, what you saw in your own chart, what is still unclear.

CHECK YOURSELF

No score. An incorrect first answer enters your review book.
