Born in January or early February? The 2078 boundary
The Kua formula runs on your Lichun-rule birth year, not the calendar year. Born in 2078 on or after 2078-02-03 (the exact Lichun instant is 2078-02-03 18:56:59, Beijing time)? Use 2078: male 3, female 3. Born before that instant? Your Lichun year is 2077: male 4 (Xun), female 2 (Kun) — see Kua number 2077. Most online calculators silently use the calendar year and get every early-February birthday wrong.
Eight directions for 2078 births
Traditional Eight Mansions assigns a star to each of the eight directions for every Kua — four favourable, four unfavourable. Computed by the kernel's two independent classical paths (agreement 8/8):

FAQ
What is my Kua number if I was born in 2078?
For births after the exact Lichun instant (2078-02-03 18:56:59, Beijing): male 3 (Zhen, East Four group), female 3 (Zhen, East Four group). Births before that instant belong to 2077 — male 4, female 2.
I was born in January or early February 2078 — which year do I use?
Use your Lichun-rule year. The year flips at the exact Lichun instant around February 4 — in 2078 it is 2078-02-03 18:56:59 Beijing. Before it, you are a 2077 birth for Kua purposes; after it, 2078. The Kua calculator applies your exact birthday and shows the instant it used.
What are the favourable directions for Kua 3?
In the Eight Mansions 八宅 tradition, each Kua has four favourable and four unfavourable directions — see the tables below. Male births after Lichun 2078 carry Kua 3; the male table applies. (Female births in 2078: use the female table.) These are the traditional star assignments, computed by two independent classical methods (the Dayou-nian verse and the six-line transformation) and cross-checked — they agreed 8/8 palaces.
East Four or West Four — what does it mean?
Traditional Eight Mansions groups the eight trigrams into East Four (坎离震巽) and West Four (乾坤艮兑). Classical practice treats same-group combinations as more compatible — between a person and a dwelling's sitting trigram, or between two people. It is a classification from the classical literature, not a prediction; we compute and display it without endorsing outcomes.
