Child Conception / Gender Calculator
Uses BaZi hour pillar derivation and sometimes the Chinese Gender Chart overlap to predict or analyze child pillars.
What is the Child Conception Gender Calculator?
Child Conception Gender Calculator is a traditional Chinese method that uses BaZi (Four Pillars of Destiny) principles and the ancient Chinese Gender Chart to predict or analyze a child's gender based on the mother's age and the lunar month of conception.
This calculator combines two traditional approaches: the Qing Palace Gender Chart (a static table lookup method) and BaZi hour pillar derivation. The method has been used in Chinese culture for centuries as a way to predict a child's gender before birth.
Lunar Calendar
This calculator uses the lunar calendar system, which is different from the Gregorian calendar. The lunar month of conception is crucial for accurate predictions.
Traditional Method
The Chinese Gender Chart (also known as the Qing Palace Chart) is a traditional table that maps the mother's lunar age to the lunar month of conception to predict gender.
Fun Fact
The Chinese Gender Chart is said to have been used by the Qing Dynasty imperial family to predict the gender of royal children. It's based on the mother's age in lunar years and the lunar month of conception, creating a matrix that predicts whether the child will be male or female.
Understanding the Calculation Method
The calculator uses two main approaches to predict gender:
Qing Palace Chart
A traditional lookup table that uses the mother's lunar age (rows) and lunar month of conception (columns) to determine predicted gender. This is a static table method passed down through generations.
Hour Pillar Derivation
Uses BaZi principles to calculate the Hour Pillar for potential birth times. The Hour Pillar in BaZi represents children and legacy, making it relevant for gender prediction.
