Birth Time Verification

The birth record gives January 9, 1913 at 21:35; this page uses that recorded time. The chart used here is Ren-Zi, Gui-Chou, Geng-Yin, Ding-Hai. It is a Geng Metal day master with the Gui-Chou month pillar and Hurting Officer structure; favorable elements lean toward Metal and Earth, while excess Water and Wood can add strain. This is an interpretive reading, not a substitute for biography or historical evidence. When the hour is inferred, that premise stays visible.

Core Analysis

Richard Nixon is read at 21:35 with the chart Ren-Zi, Gui-Chou, Geng-Yin, Ding-Hai. This is a Geng Metal day master with the Hurting Officer structure; favorable elements lean toward Metal and Earth, while excess Water and Wood can add strain.

Richard Nixon (1913-1994) was the 37th U.S. president. Humble origins, legal training, election, the China visit, and Watergate resignation shape this case.

The chart is most useful when read beside public events. The Hurting Officer structure is not a personality label by itself; in family shift, study, marriage, election, China visit, and resignation, it shows through opportunity, pressure, and choice.
