Korean Saju: 2012, Year of the Water Dragon
임진
임진 · Im·Jin
In Korean saju (四柱八字), your birth year sets the first pillar of your chart. 2012 carries the Water Dragon: Im·Jin (임진 in Korean).
Dragon — Charismatic and larger than life — the only mythical sign in the wheel.
Water — depth, adaptability, and sharp intuition.
The saju year begins at Ipchun (입춘, around 4 February), not January 1. Born before that date? Your year pillar belongs to 2011 — and a true myeongni reading weighs month, day and hour on top.
A real reading reads all eight characters — year, month, day and hour.
