How it works

One moment in, a companion for every day

No sign-up quiz, no twenty questions about your personality. Saju needs exactly one thing: when you arrived.

1

Tell us your moment

Your birth date, time, and place. That one moment is the whole input — no quizzes, no personality tests.

2

Meet your companion

Koju reads your four pillars — year, month, day, and hour — and introduces the animal companion hiding in your day pillar, in plain language.

3

Notice one thing a day

Each morning, a short reading on how the day's energy meets your chart. Something to notice, one tiny move — then get on with your day.

Meet the twelve

Every chart hides an animal

Your day pillar decides which of the twelve is yours — and its element sets the mood. Try them on.

Inside the app

One chart, read three ways

Today, Chart, and People are the three tabs you'll live in. Each one is your same four pillars, seen from a different angle.

01 · Today

A greeting, a headline, one tiny move

Every morning your companion reads the day's pillar against your chart and hands you something useful: a short headline, today by topic, and one small thing to try. Two minutes, then get on with your life.

  • Written for your chart, not your sun sign
  • A tiny move you can actually do today
  • Why it appears — the chart signals, explained

Born on a fire yin day — the candle flame — focused, perceptive, quietly intense. Year of the Pig. The app reads the same pillars, then adds a reading for every day and the traditional stem-and-branch detail.

Saju has guided decisions on the Korean peninsula for centuries — read at births, before weddings, at every new year. Koju is that tradition, read gently, in your pocket.

Questions

Fair questions, honest answers

What is Saju?+

Saju (사주, “four pillars”) is Korean astrology. It reads the year, month, day, and hour of your birth as four pillars, each carrying one of five elements — wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. The balance between them describes your temperament, your tendencies, and how any given day interacts with them.

How is it different from Western astrology?+

Western astrology is built around the positions of planets against star signs. Saju is built on the traditional East Asian calendar and the five-element cycle. It's less “what's your sign” and more a careful reading of one precise moment — which is why your birth time matters so much.

Do I need my exact birth time?+

The more precise, the better — your hour pillar comes directly from it. If you only know the approximate time, Koju still builds the other three pillars accurately and tells you which parts of the reading depend on the hour.

Will it tell me my future?+

No — and it shouldn't. Koju offers prompts and patterns, not predictions. You may find that today feels easier when you leave space before answering; you won't be told that destiny has decided anything. It's for reflection, not fortune-telling with a countdown.

Is Koju free?+

Seeing your chart is. Casting your pillars on this page costs nothing, and in the app you see your four pillars, your element balance, and the companion in your day pillar before you make an account. Everything that keeps going is Koju Pro, an auto-renewing subscription: a fresh reading every day, the longer full reading, compatibility between two charts, the traditional stem-and-branch detail, and saving and sharing your chart. Koju is sold whole rather than as a free app with locked doors.

What does Koju Pro cost?+

The price, and whether your account is eligible for a free trial, are shown in the app before you subscribe — and on the App Store listing. It renews automatically until you cancel, which you can do at any time in your app store subscription settings.

When can I get it?+

Koju is coming soon to the App Store. Email us and we'll let you know the moment it's live.
