Step 1: Find out where your Y-Self is. This cell will be your Trigger cell to launch the flies.
This is not a Barnum statement. Unlike Barnum or cold readings, which rely on the owner to fill in details, a decoder starts with a simple open-ended question (e.g. "I sense that you are sometimes insecure, especially with people you don't know very well").. Source: Barnum (or Cold Reading), Wikipedia.)
It's important to note that Zi Wei Dou Shu requires precise birth information input. Any incorrect information can result in a chart that doesn't belong to you. This is especially true for borderline birth hours like 5:01am or even 3:05pm. Despite the seemingly insignificant minute differences, they can lead to a completely different chart. There has been much debate on how to determine which birth hour to use. However, don't worry - you can read this Zi Wei Dou Shu blog for a better understanding: Should we adjust our birth hour?
