Dear Dragana Vilinac,

Year 1957 (ding-you) is made up to Heaven Stem - Fire, Earthly Branch Metal Rooster.

Year

By default, if you take the Rooster without the Heavenly Stem it is yin Metal Rooster. However, when you are looking at a year, you should be using the Heavenly Stem element which is yin Ding (Fire). As such the year 1957 is a Fire Rooster year.

There are 5 different kinds of rooster depending on the year. ie a Metal Rooster / Water Rooster / Wood Rooster / Fire Rooster / Earth Rooster.

As for the birth element, you take the Heavenly Stem of the Day pillar as the element for your birth element. Just like there can be10 different element weak/strong Metal, weak/strong Water, weak/strong Wood, weak/strong Fire or weak/strong Earth person born in a Fire Rooster year.

So you are a strong Metal person born in the Fire Rooster year.

Hope that helps.

Warmest Regards
