Wu Wu Day Pillar
戊午 · in BaZi, the Chinese Four Pillars of Destiny
What Wu Wu is
Sun beating on rock: the stone takes the heat in by day and gives it back at night. More staying power than it appears to have.
Its image: Fire of the Sky
The fire of sun and moon: permanent, overhead, and competing with no one.
In the sixty-pillar cycle each image is shared by exactly two pillars. 戊午 shares Fire of the Sky with 己未, though the two differ in polarity, animal and hidden stems.
The stem: Wù Earth
Wù carries the image of a mountain. That is this pillar's baseline; the branch it is paired with decides the rest.

Wǔ is Fire, yang in polarity, and carries the Horse.
Hidden stems: every branch conceals stems of its own, in descending weight — Dīng Fire (70%), Jǐ Earth (30%).
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.
