About
Auspice (青鸾信 in Chinese) is a BaZi app for people who want to understand themselves, not have their future told. BaZi, or Four Pillars, is a traditional Chinese framework that reads character and timing from the year, month, day and hour of birth.
Auspice computes the chart free and without sign-up, corrects the birth time to true solar time using historical time-zone and daylight-saving records, and flags an hour pillar when the corrected time sits too close to a boundary to call. A paid reading then works through character, career, relationships, money, health and the year ahead, citing only what is in the chart.
The calculation method and a dated corrections log are public. Every page is written natively in English and in Chinese. Founder Shan Liu built the engine in Vancouver after AI chatbots kept getting the chart itself wrong.
