What we do
- Free tools. Your Joss Profile (the Four Pillars, or BaZi), the daily almanac (Tong Shu), Ask Joss (Da Liu Ren), Joss Timing (Qi Men Dun Jia), Joss Match, Home Map 2027 and the Tai Sui check. They calculate in your browser; your birth details stay on your device.
- Readings. Book of You and Your 2027 explain your chart in long form. Their text is drafted by an AI language model from your computed chart only, never your name, email or birth details. Every one is checked automatically for consistency before it reaches you.
- Objects. Small pieces 3D-printed to order from your chart and shipped from Mainland China. Ships to the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Singapore and Hong Kong. Digital readings are available worldwide.
What this is, and what it is not
These are traditional methods for describing character and timing, read the way you might read an astrology report: as a mirror and a planning aid. We do not make fortune-telling promises. askjoss is for self-reflection and cultural enjoyment. It is not medical, legal, financial or psychological advice, and nothing we make guarantees luck, wealth or any outcome.
The guardians on our objects are a storytelling layer for your favorable element. They are keepsakes, not deities, and nothing we make is blessed or consecrated.
How we calculate
The calendar math is deterministic and published, including every simplification we make: How we calculate. Guides to the systems themselves are in Learn.
