Open the Qimen Dunjia calculatorWhat is Qimen Dunjia
Qimen Dunjia is one of the most sophisticated Chinese metaphysical systems, alongside Taiyi Shenshu and Liuren — collectively known as the "Three Styles" (San Shi). It constructs a complete space-time energy model through four overlapping layers: the Heaven Plate (Nine Stars), the Human Plate (Eight Gates), the Earth Plate (Eight Trigrams and Nine Palaces), and the Spirit Plate (Eight Spirits). Qimen Dunjia is widely applied in timing decisions, event forecasting, and Feng Shui analysis.

Key Features
FAQ
What information is needed for a Qimen Dunjia chart?
You only need an accurate date and time (year, month, day, hour, minute). The system automatically determines the solar term and Ju number to complete all calculations. Both solar and lunar calendar inputs are supported.
What are Zhifu and Zhishi?
Zhifu (Duty Star) is the presiding Nine Star, representing the dominant energy force. Zhishi (Duty Gate) is the presiding Eight Gate, representing the direction of action. They are the core elements for chart interpretation.
What does palace prosperity mean?
Palace prosperity is determined by the Eight Seasonal Nodes (Lichun, Chunfen, Lixia, Xiazhi, Liqiu, Qiufen, Lidong, Dongzhi), assigning eight energy states to the eight palaces: Prosperous, Phase, Embryonic, Submerged, Dead, Imprisoned, Waste, and Rest. It is essential for judging energy progression and regression.
What is San Yuan (Three Origins) Qimen?
San Yuan Qimen is the core analytical framework of Qimen Dunjia, centered on three key palaces: Yuan Shen Gong (Origin Spirit Palace), Yuan Qi Gong (Origin Energy Palace, where Earth Stem Jia-Zi-Wu lands), and Tian Yi Gong (Heavenly Doctor Palace). Through the progressive relationships among these three palaces, practitioners can assess the past, present, and future trajectory of events. Compared to traditional Flying or Rotating plate methods, San Yuan Qimen emphasizes energy relationships between palaces and the five-element interactions.
What is this tool based on?
This charting tool is developed based on the San Yuan Qimen system as taught by Master Zuo Ye Lao Dao (leejoer), with core algorithms referencing authoritative texts including "The Secret Manual of San Yuan Qimen" (三元奇门秘册). The results cover all information needed for the Eight Methods of Qimen (Yuan Qi, Qi Yuan, Fu Shi, Fei Fu, Jin Tui, Dong Jing, etc.), providing accurate and professional support for San Yuan Qimen practitioners.
