Birth Time Verification

This case uses 02:15, the Chou hour. The source type is web search. Astro-Databank records 23 June 1912, 02:15, London, with a From memory rating. Because it is not a birth-certificate source, this page treats it as web-search material. 02:15 falls in the Chou hour. The local BaZi calculation gives Ren Zi year, Bing Wu month, Geng Wu day, Ding Chou hour. Chou carries Ding Fire as Officer, Ji Earth as Resource, Gui Water as Hurting Officer, and Xin Metal as Companion. That hour explains the chart well: strict logic, national assignment, institutional pressure, and private injury are all visible.

Core Analysis

With the Chou hour, Turing’s BaZi is Ren Zi year, Bing Wu month, Geng Wu day, Ding Chou hour. Geng Metal is born in the Wu month. Fire is very strong. Bing Seven Killings and Ding Officer both appear. The main reading is Officer structure with heavy Officer and Killing pressure.

The saving point is Chou. Chou stores Ji Earth Resource and Xin Metal Companion, so Geng Metal is not crushed by Fire. Turing’s great gift was cold compression: he could reduce a problem to its hard skeleton. The 1936 computable-numbers paper fits that Geng Metal shaped under Officer and Resource pressure.

The chart is full of clash and punishment. Zi clashes the two Wu branches, and Wu repeats with self-punishment. Institution, war, identity, and inner pressure do not stay separate. He died in 1954 during the Geng Xu luck cycle and the Jia Wu year. Jia Wood feeds Fire, Wu repeats the month and day, and the Officer-Killing pressure returns hard. Traditional life-limit reading pays close attention when the unfavorable Fire becomes this concentrated.

Traits

01

Logic like a blade

Geng Metal formed under Officer pressure cuts difficult problems down to hard rules.

02

Works under pressure

Officer and Resource structure can serve wartime work, but also exposes him to institutional harm.

03

Deep inner conflict

Zi-Wu clash and Wu-Wu self-punishment show strong tension between discipline, identity, and private life.

Timeline

Each year shows the event, luck pillar, annual pillar, relations, and interpretation for direct comparison.

1936
24yrs Career

Published the computable-numbers paper

In 1936, Turing proposed the Turing machine model and laid a foundation for theoretical computer science.

BaZi Note
Wu Shen luck gives Earth and Metal support, ideal for abstract and rigorous theory. In the Bing Zi year, Seven Killings appears and Zi clashes Wu. Pressure and breakthrough arrive together. The Turing machine is a hard, minimal logical core.
1939
27yrs Career

Joined Bletchley Park

In 1939, Turing joined Bletchley Park and worked on breaking Enigma.

BaZi Note
Ji You luck gives Resource and Metal support. The Ji Mao year repeats Resource, while Mao clashes You and changes the environment. A national task lands on him, and the Officer structure enters a real war field.
1950
38yrs Career

Proposed the Turing test

In 1950, he published the paper on whether machines can think, later known for the Turing test.

BaZi Note
Geng Xu luck brings Companion, making Turing more direct in judgment. In the Geng Yin year, Yin links with Wu and Xu toward Fire, so Officer pressure remains. Two Geng stems help him state the question boldly.
1952
40yrs Personal

Prosecuted for being gay

In 1952, Turing was convicted and forced to undergo hormone treatment.

BaZi Note
In the Ren Chen year, Hurting Officer appears and Chen clashes the luck branch Xu. This is a textbook wound in an Officer-heavy chart: personal truth collides with institutional punishment.
1954
42yrs Personal

Death

Turing died in 1954, aged 41.

BaZi Note
In the Jia Wu year, Jia Wood feeds Fire and Wu repeats the month and day branches. Wu-Wu self-punishment grows heavier, with Xu storing Ding Fire. Traditional life-limit reading treats this as severe Fire pressure on Geng Metal.

FAQ

Why does this page use 02:15 for Alan Turing? +
Astro-Databank gives 02:15 with a From memory rating. This page treats it as a web-search source and recalculates the chart by Chou hour.
What is the key structure in Turing’s BaZi? +
Geng Metal is born in the Wu month, with Officer and Killing pressure very strong. The Chou hour gives Resource and Metal support, letting that pressure become rigorous logic.
How is Turing’s death year read? +
1954 was Geng Xu luck and Jia Wu year. Wu Fire repeated the month and day branches, and Wood fed Fire. Traditional BaZi reads this as heavy Officer-Killing pressure and a clear life-limit signal.
