Disclaimer

Last updated: October 8, 2026

Thank you for using KnowYourBaZi ("the Site"). The Site offers fortune-telling tools for BaZi, Zi Wei Dou Shu and Western astrology, along with folk and cultural content such as fortune poems, the almanac and Taoist classics. This content has its limits. Please read the statements below before using the Site, and keep these limits in mind as you use it.

In short: everything on the Site is for reference, entertainment and self-understanding only and is not professional advice of any kind. Every choice in your life remains, in the end, in your own hands.

1. Scope

This disclaimer applies to all content and tools on the Site, including: BaZi charts, in-depth readings and compatibility; Zi Wei Dou Shu charts and readings; Western astrology charts, zodiac signs and planetary aspects; fortune poems such as the sixty Jiazi poems, the Guanyin poems, the Mazu poems and the Yue Lao poems; Taoist classics; name analysis and name selection; Eight Mansions feng shui; date selection, the farmer's almanac and the daily almanac; the twenty-four solar terms, the Chinese zodiac, numerology and celebrity charts; and the comparison of Zi Wei with the sixteen personality types.

2. Nature of the content

Fortune-telling, astrology, fortune poems and date selection are long-standing traditional cultures and folk beliefs, not laws of cause and effect verified by modern science. The explanations on the Site are compiled from the commonly accepted views within each system. They are cultural knowledge and a point of interest, and we do not guarantee that any prediction, description or suggestion is true, will happen, or applies to your individual situation. For folk practices such as making offerings, lighting lamps or appeasing the Tai Sui, the Site only explains the culture; it does not sell or arrange these services and does not work with any temple or business.

3. AI-generated content

The Site's articles, translations and reading text are mainly generated by AI and then organized by the site operator, who has had no formal training under a teacher; see About Us for details. Charts, solar terms and astronomical events are calculated by software. AI-generated text may contain factual errors, misquotations or imprecise translations, so please treat it as a starting point, and check important matters again or ask a professional. If you find a mistake, you are very welcome to email us with a correction.

4. Not professional advice

The Site's content is not, and cannot replace, professional advice in any field. In particular:

Medical and mental health: the Site does not provide diagnosis or treatment advice for medical, physical or mental health conditions. If you are unwell in body or mind, please consult a qualified doctor or mental health professional.
Investment and finance: the Site does not provide investment, financial planning or any other financial decision-making advice. For financial matters, please consult a qualified financial or legal professional and assess the risks yourself.
Legal: the Site does not provide legal advice. If your legal rights are involved, please consult a practicing lawyer.
Major life decisions: for major decisions such as marriage, having children, career, relocation, buying a home or investing, please rely mainly on your real circumstances and careful reasoning, and do not make a choice based on fortune-telling or fortune poems alone.

5. About accuracy

Casting a chart involves calendar conversion, defining the birth hour, true solar time, leap months and differences between the rules of various schools, and different schools often read the same chart differently; fortune poems and scriptures also exist in different versions. Although we strive for correct calculations and content, errors, simplifications or omissions may still exist, and we cannot guarantee that it is complete, accurate or up to date. If you find any error, you are welcome to email us with a correction.

6. Personalized readings

The in-depth readings on the Site are free, like the rest of its content, and the same in nature: likewise for reference and entertainment only, not any of the professional advice described above, and not guaranteed to match your actual circumstances.

7. Limitation of liability

Whether you believe the Site's content, and how you use it, is your own judgment and decision. The Site's services are free, and except where caused by our intentional misconduct or gross negligence, the Site is not liable for any direct or indirect loss, consequence of a decision, or dispute arising from the use of or reliance on the Site's content. For the other provisions that govern use of the Site, see the Terms of Use.

8. External links and advertising

The Site may link to third-party websites and also shows ads provided by third parties such as Google. These links and ads are the responsibility of those third parties. The Site does not vouch for their content, products or services, and showing them does not mean the Site recommends them.
