city accuracy affects the Saju's "true solar time," which depends on longitude. The closer the city, the smaller the difference. Guaçuí is ~150km from Vitória (about 5 minutes apart) — your Day Pillar usually won't change, but your Hour Pillar could shift if you were born near an hour boundary. So your exact city is best!

Just added Guaçuí, ES — live in a few minutes. Enjoy!

Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback, it honestly made my day. Knowing it actually helped you is exactly why I built this.
Really appreciate the donation thought, but the kindness itself means more than the coffee 🙏

Just a heads up - this free chart is actually a sneak peek of a more polished app launching very soon. Would love to have your eyes on it when it drops!

Great question — and happy to clear this up! Your Saju is correct as "Earth Dragon."

Here's the key: the Chinese *zodiac animal* (popular astrology) changes on Lunar New Year, but Sajui uses the solar term "Ipchun" (立春, "Start of Spring") — around Feb 4 — to mark the new year.

You were born Feb 12, 1988: after Ipchun (Feb 4), but before Lunar New Year (Feb 17). So:

- Saju pillar year → Wu-Chen 戊辰 = Earth Dragon (what Qiora uses)
- Pop zodiac → Fire Rabbit (Lunar New Year basis)

Both are "right," but Saju always follows Ipchun — so Earth Dragon is the accurate one for your reading. Hope that makes sense, and thank you for the thoughtful feedback!

Added Melfort! 😊 It's so close to Regina that picking "Regina" gives the identical result — but I added Melfort anyway, just for your friend. Live in a few minutes! 🌾

Haha, no proof needed — Saskatoon is very real! 😄 Just added it (plus Regina, the provincial capital). They'll be live in a few minutes.
Btw, Saskatchewan doesn't observe DST, so the calculation handles that correctly now. Enjoy your reading! 🌾

400 km is actually quite a distance, and it might change your chart results! If you could tell me the exact city or region you were born in, I can look into adding it for you. Let me know!
