Astro-Databank records Hepburn as born at 03:00 on May 4, 1929, in Ixelles, Belgium, citing a birth certificate or birth record. The local BaZi calculation gives Ji Si year, Wu Chen month, Ji You day, Bing Yin hour. The Yin hour contains Jia Wood as Direct Officer, Bing Fire as Direct Resource, and Wu Earth as Rob Wealth.

Core Analysis
Hepburn’s BaZi is Ji Si year, Wu Chen month, Ji You day, Bing Yin hour. Ji Earth is born in the Chen month, with heavy Earth already present through Ji and Wu. The structure is Jianlu, using Officer and Killings. Strong Earth gives poise, but too much Earth can become tension. Her beauty works through restraint, line, and measure. The You Metal day branch is very important. Si and You form a Metal tendency, and Chen combines with You toward Metal. Output Metal brings dance, camera presence, clothing lines, and bodily expression. The Yin hour brings Jia Wood as Officer, which shows discipline and also the real responsibility behind her later UNICEF work. Wood and Water are useful. Wood controls heavy Earth; Water moistens it. She died in 1993, during Yi Hai luck and the Gui You year. Wood and Water appeared, but You repeated the day branch and pulled the Chen-You and Si-You Metal patterns again. In traditional life-limit reading, the issue is not simply whether useful elements appear. It is whether the chart’s already-heavy side is pulled too tight. That year shows clear bodily depletion.

Birth
Audrey Hepburn was born in Ixelles, Belgium.

Roman Holiday made her famous
In 1953, Roman Holiday made Hepburn an international star.
Xin Wei luck brings Eating God, so screen expression matures. In the Gui Si year, Water Wealth brings market opportunity, while Si links with You Metal. Her camera presence and styling move to the front.
Committed to UNICEF humanitarian work
From 1988, Hepburn traveled frequently as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador.
Jia Xu luck brings Direct Officer, so responsibility becomes stronger than celebrity identity. In the Wu Chen year, Chen clashes Xu. The Earth is heavy, but it also pushes her into difficult and concrete field work.
Death
In 1993, Hepburn died in Switzerland.
Yi Hai luck brings Seven Killings and Wealth, both useful to the chart. But the Gui You year repeats the You day branch and pulls Chen-You and Si-You Metal again. In old-age life-limit reading, this kind of repeated Metal pressure points to heavy physical depletion.
