Bing YinBǐng FireYín — TigerNayin: Fire in the Furnace

What Bing Yin is

Sunrise over a forest — the wood feeds the fire and everything gains momentum at once. What starts this fast can also overrun itself.

Its image: Fire in the Furnace

Fire inside a forge — contained on purpose, which is exactly why it burns hot enough to work with.

In the sixty-pillar cycle each image is shared by exactly two pillars. 丙寅 shares Fire in the Furnace with 丁卯, though the two differ in polarity, animal and hidden stems.

The stem: Bǐng Fire

Bǐng carries the image of the sun. That is this pillar's baseline; the branch it is paired with decides the rest.

The branch: Yín, the Tiger

Yín is Wood, yang in polarity, and carries the Tiger.

Hidden stems: every branch conceals stems of its own, in descending weight — Jiǎ Wood (60%), Bǐng Fire (30%), Wù Earth (10%).

How stem and branch relate

the branch feeds the stem (Resource)

The ground under this pillar nourishes it. People with it rarely run empty — and can stay comfortable longer than is good for them.

Note: this reads the day pillar alone. A full chart has three more pillars plus the luck cycles, and the balance is only settled by all of them together.
