Korean Saju Guide

What If I Do Not Know My Birth Time?

You can still request a Saju reading if your exact birth time is unknown. The year, month and day pillars can still be considered, but interpretations linked to the hour pillar may be limited. Provide the best approximation available and clearly mark how certain you are so the report can distinguish supported detail from uncertainty.

Which parts of the chart remain available?

The year, month and day information still supports substantial analysis of the traditional chart. The missing hour mainly affects interpretations that depend on the fourth pillar and some timing detail.

Should I guess a birth time?

Do not present a guess as certain. If a family recollection or broad time of day is available, include it as an approximation. If nothing reliable is known, select the unknown-time option on the intake form.

Will the report explain the limitation?

Yes. A responsible interpretation should identify where uncertainty affects confidence instead of filling the gap with a false claim. The reader may ask for clarification if the approximate time materially changes the requested focus.
