What is San Yuan Qimen Dunjia?

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.
- 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.

What San Yuan means
San Yuan refers to three main reading lines: Yuan Shen, Yuan Qi, and Tian Yi. Yuan Shen reveals the root intention, Yuan Qi shows the current energy, and Tian Yi points to support, transformation, and possible resolution.
The San Yuan method used by QimenMind
QimenMind uses the San Yuan Qimen system taught through Master Zuo Ye Lao Dao’s lineage, is developed and maintained by a direct lineage disciple, and refers to lineage works including San Yuan Qimen Mi Ce, Dun Jia Ji Zhang, and Qi Men Dun Jia Sui Shi Lu.
Why it fits an online calculator
San Yuan reading requires chart details, palace states, Fei Fu, Jin Tui, and inter-palace relationships. A calculator can surface these details automatically so the reader can focus on interpretation instead of manual chart construction.
How it supports AI reading
After the chart is cast, AI can identify the question, locate the useful gods, read the three-origin line, and explain the likely development in plain language.
