BaZi month pillars are tied to solar terms, not simply calendar months. This matters because the Month Pillar carries seasonal strength.

If someone is born near a solar-term boundary, the month pillar may differ from what a normal calendar assumption suggests. That can affect the Day Master reading.
Why this improves trust
