Yin/Yang here means expansive, direct, visible, structural — not gender.

The Beacon FAQ
What is The Beacon?
The Beacon is the Fire Yang Eastern Type mapped to the 丙 Day Master stem. It is a starting lens, not a complete personality description.
How is The Beacon connected to my birth chart?
The calculator derives your Day Master from the Day Pillar, then maps the 丙 stem to E03 The Beacon. Other pillars and chart relationships can change how these tendencies show up.
What if this The Beacon description does not fit me?
That is a useful counter-signal. Treat this page as a tentative pattern language; life context, the rest of the chart, and your own experience matter more than a label.
