Ask Dunyuan: Qi Men Dun Jia AI Reading
Dunyuan is QimenMind’s San Yuan Qimen AI reader. Cast a chart first, then describe one specific situation. The reading sets out a likely direction, chart evidence, timing, risks, and a practical next step. The first three AI questions per account are free. Follow up on the same chart while the matter stays the same; cast a new one when the person or situation changes.

Question
Should I continue moving this partnership forward?
Example chart time
Beijing time · 2021-06-14 20:00
Yang Dun 9 · Lower yuan
Conclusion
Do not make a heavy commitment yet. Resources and profit are attractive on the surface, but the structure is weak and may later create conflict over direction, distribution, or execution authority.
Check the base chart
- Four pillars (year / month / day / hour)
- 辛丑 甲午 癸巳 壬戌
- Xin-Chou · Jia-Wu · Gui-Si · Ren-Xu
- Hour-cycle head
- 甲寅
- Jia-Yin
Recast using San Yuan Qimen and Beijing time. You can compare the pillars, hour-cycle head, and Ju number. This is a simplified example; a full reading still depends on the question and the live chart.
Three points behind the reading
- 1The Star and Gate lack separation, pointing to weak follow-through and limited staying power.
- 2The wealth indicator shares a palace with Liuhe, explaining the initial attraction of resources and returns.
- 3The wealth indicator transforms toward pressure in Dui palace, so Liuhe alone cannot support a favorable judgment.
- Main risk
- Mistaking profit potential for a stable partnership while leaving distribution, decision rights, and exit terms undefined.
- Next action
- Run a limited milestone first. Put funding, roles, accounts, distribution, and exit terms in writing; pause further commitment if the other party avoids those checks.
These examples are anonymized and simplified. Your reading will depend on your question and chart.
About charting and AI readings
How charts are calculated, which time to enter, and what to expect from an AI reading.
- What QimenMind does
QimenMind provides online Qi Men Dun Jia charts and AI readings. Enter a time to view the nine palaces, then ask Dunyuan about one specific situation.
- Charting and AI readings
Dunyuan is QimenMind’s San Yuan Qimen AI reader. The calculator computes the chart first; Dunyuan then explains Useful Gods, palace relationships, San Yuan signals, risks, and possible next steps from that chart. Ask a follow-up if any part is unclear.
- How charts are calculated
QimenMind calculates a time-based nine-palace Qimen chart and applies San Yuan as its core analysis framework. The solar term, day-pillar Futou, and upper, middle, or lower Yuan determine the Ju number. The chart shows Yuan Shen Gong, Yuan Qi Gong, Tian Yi Gong, San Yuan energy flow, Fei Fu, and Jin Tui from the calculated chart.
- How to use a reading
Use QimenMind to study Qimen and see one specific situation clearly. The reading stays with the chart evidence; ask Dunyuan again as the situation develops.
Convert a manual time to UTC+8
The current-time option uses Beijing time (UTC+8) automatically. For manual entry, convert another local time first: at UTC+2, September 10 at 18:00 is September 11 at 00:00 in Beijing, so change the date too. Use the actual UTC offset on the event date, including daylight saving time. QimenMind does not convert from a location or apply true solar time corrections.
Why the chart comes first
Qimen analysis depends on casting time, Zhifu, Zhishi, the Useful God (Yong Shen) chosen for the question, palace prosperity, and chart patterns. Casting first lets Dunyuan use the stars, gates, spirits, stems, and San Yuan line from that moment instead of giving generic advice.
Three ways to get an AI reading: a dedicated reader, a calculator plus ChatGPT, or ChatGPT alone
All three give you an explanation. They differ in who calculates the chart, whether you can check it, and whether follow-up questions stay on the same chart. The table compares how each works, not which is more accurate; none of them guarantees an outcome, so compare the reading with what actually happens.
| Compare | Cast on QimenMind, then ask Dunyuan | Use a calculator, then ask ChatGPT or another general AI | Ask a general AI to cast the chart itself |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who calculates the chart | The calculator, using San Yuan hour-chart Zhuan Pan with Chai Bu Ju selection; question charts use Beijing time | The calculator you choose; check its stated method | The AI estimates it from memory, with no visible calculation |
| How the AI gets the chart | The system passes the solar term, Ju, Xun head, Zhifu, Zhishi and every palace’s star, gate, deity and stems directly, with nothing to copy | You copy the fields or paste a screenshot; screenshots can be misread, so copy at least the solar term, Ju, Xun head, Zhifu, Zhishi and each palace’s star, gate, deity and stems | The AI generates it; there is no chart you can recompute |
| Follow-up questions | Stay on the same locked chart; cast a new one when the person or matter changes | Depends on whether you paste the same chart each time | It may produce a different chart each time |
| Who checks mistakes | Answers list the chart evidence, and each palace links back to the original chart; Dunyuan can still misread, so the chart is the reference | You check each field against the original chart | Only by recomputing in a calculator; in one DeepSeek test we ran, its day pillar, Ju and Zhifu/Zhishi all differed from the calculator |
| Best for | People who want to keep asking about one specific matter without assembling the chart themselves | People who already follow one school and want to use their own prompts and framework | People who only want concepts explained, not a reading of a specific chart |
Each account gets its first 3 Dunyuan answers free; the allowance does not reset daily.
What Dunyuan reads
QimenMind keeps the core chart details: solar term, Yin or Yang Dun, Ju number, Xunshou, Zhifu, Zhishi, Eight Gates, Nine Stars, Eight Spirits, 81 patterns, Kongwang, Yima, Menpo, Rumu, and palace prosperity. AI reading then explains Useful Gods, self-other relations, Yuan Shen Gong, Yuan Qi Gong, Tian Yi Gong, Fei Fu, and Jin Tui.
Best use cases
AI reading works best for specific questions such as career choices, cooperation, relationships, wealth timing, travel, interviews, and important decisions. The clearer the question, the easier it is to connect chart evidence to a practical judgment.
What to check after a reading
A reading highlights favorable signs, obstacles, and what to watch next. For medical, legal, or money decisions, check the reading against exams, documents, and the facts in front of you.
FAQ
What is a QMDJ reading?
A QMDJ reading is an interpretation of a Qi Men Dun Jia chart. It connects the question and casting time with Useful Gods, palace relationships, chart symbols, and timing evidence instead of giving generic fortune advice.
Do I need to enter a question before casting the chart?
No. On this English page, cast the chart first, then describe one specific question. Typing or editing the question does not call AI; only an explicit submit creates or sends it. Follow-ups about that matter can continue without casting again.
What is the difference between the calculator and AI reading?
The calculator computes and displays the chart. AI reading explains the Useful Gods, palace relationships, San Yuan line, Fei Fu, Jin Tui, and the reasons behind the judgment.
How is Dunyuan different from asking ChatGPT or DeepSeek directly?
Dunyuan reads a chart the calculator has already computed, lists the chart evidence, and keeps follow-ups on the same chart. A general AI asked to cast the chart works from memory, shows no calculation, and may produce a different chart each time. If you prefer a general AI, cast the chart in a reliable calculator first, then give it the solar term, Ju, Zhifu, Zhishi and palace fields to interpret.
