What it means

Wenxing Nobleman (文星贵人) takes a noble branch against the day stem—e.g., for a Jia day Wenxing is Yin (horse), for Yi it is Si (snake), for Bing/Wu it is Shen (monkey). It marks literary talent and refinement, favorable for examination success and advancement in office; one who has it is usually outstanding in learning and conspicuous in letters—an auspicious star of literary distinction.
