Saju seasonal fortune
Qingming (Clear & Bright) is one of the 24 solar terms (jieqi) used in the Korean Saju and East Asian lunisolar calendar. This page explains its meaning, the dominant 5-element flow, and how to use it when reading your Korean four-pillar fortune.
Qingming (Clear & Bright) is the brightest spring term, traditionally used in Korea and China for ancestor remembrance and family pillar reflection. The Chen (辰) earth-water reservoir collects spring chi. In Saju, this is the moment to audit family/ancestral karma in the Year pillar.
Wood (木) represents growth, expansion, and new initiatives. Under a Wood-dominant solar term, the energy of birth and outward movement is strong. In Korean Saju, the month pillar inherits this Wood influence — Day Masters of Wood gain support, Fire Day Masters receive fuel, Earth Day Masters feel pressure, and Metal Day Masters meet a controlling counterpart. Practical use: start projects, plant seeds (literal or metaphorical), commit to learning, and lean into vertical growth. Avoid heavy stagnation and excess of Metal (cutting energy).
