Bazi also known as Four Pillars of Destiny deals with the life path of an individual. It delves into the characteristics of that person, how to choose the right career, how to understand our relationships, what are our health risks and as well helps us to understand our wealth potential. We can use this information to make informed decisions about the choices that we are going to make in our life. A Bazi chart is derived from our year, month, day and hour of birth.
