Public birth data used
Astro Charts lists Bruce Lee as born November 27, 1940, 7:12 AM, San Francisco, California, United States, UTC-8, with Rodden AA time credit.
This case is included because the public record contains date, time, place and timezone. The analysis remains a method demonstration, not a claim about private life.

What this page can safely say
The page can show how a San Francisco birth record becomes a BaZi chart after keeping the local date and time basis. It should not be used to explain injuries, death, relationships or moral character.
Chart structure as a teaching example
The Mingli calculation gives a 甲 Day Master. The year stem 庚 becomes 七杀, the month stem 丁 becomes 伤官, and the hour stem 戊 becomes 偏财 relative to 甲. These labels describe chart relationships, not fixed judgments.
Why this is useful for overseas users
Many overseas Chinese users ask whether a U.S. birth time should be converted to Beijing time. This case shows the safer workflow: keep the local birth record, identify timezone and birthplace, then calculate the chart.
FAQ
- Should Bruce Lee’s San Francisco birth time be converted to Beijing time?
- No. The safer workflow starts from the local recorded time and birthplace, then handles timezone and true-solar-time logic.
- Does the chart explain Bruce Lee’s life?
- No. The page only uses the public record to explain Four Pillars calculation and Ten Gods labels.
- Why avoid death or health analysis?
- Because those are high-risk claims and would turn a method page into sensational content.
