Birth Time Verification
Xu Beihong's birth date is checked as 1895-07-19. I did not find a reliable public birth time, so 08:00 is kept only as a candidate hour. The four pillars shown here are Yi Wei, Gui Wei, Ding Mao, Jia Chen; the reading gives more weight to the verified date and public life record.
Core Analysis
Xu Beihong's chart is Yi Wei, Gui Wei, Ding Mao, Jia Chen. The Ding Fire day master is born in the Gui Wei month, so the reading starts with temperament, pressure, and the way talent is put to use. The page focuses on Creativity & Technical Mastery and Leadership & Influence. The chart is read together with public life events: work, reputation, conflict, and turning points. Because the birth time is not confirmed, the hour pillar stays as a candidate.
