# What the Service Does

Users enter their birth information (date, time, birthplace) and receive a personalized destiny profile. The system calculates a precise Manseoryeok (Saju chart, 만세력) and Western astrology profile.
Based on this data, the system analyzes personality, generates yearly fortune, assigns a guardian animal character, recommends symbolic locations for energy balance, and generates narrative interpretations using AI.

# Guardian Character System

Each user is matched with a guardian animal called a "Soohomong" (수호몽) determined by the Six Harmony (Yukhap, 육합) relationship. These characters present the user's fortune through unique personalities and serve as the main motif for the service's merchandise.

# Main Experience

- **Soul Thresher (영혼 탈곡기):** Personality analysis stage.
- **Detailed Fortune (상세 운세):** Detailed fortune reading (career, love, wealth, health).
- **Find My Mountain in Seoul (나의 산 찾기):** Symbolic mountain recommendation based on energy balance.

# Calculations & AI Role

The service performs structured astrological calculations (Saju, Ten Gods, Luck cycles, Chart strength, Western astrology) using NASA JPL SPICE kernels before generating narrative text. 
AI language models are used *only after* structured calculations are complete to generate readable, character-driven interpretations. The AI does not calculate the chart itself.

# Visual Style & Product Direction

The service features a playful retro interface (Windows 98 style). Animal characters and collectible cards are central to the experience. The long-term vision includes expanding the Character IP business and developing into a native mobile game focused on character collection.
