Your day pillar is the pair of characters for the day you were born: your Day Master on top, the branch it stands on below. If yours is 癸卯, here's what the app reads in it.
What you sit on: your day pillar
Spring rain on new leaves
Here soft spring rain falls on new leaves. The Rabbit is young Wood, and rain helps it grow. All of it is Eating God, the star of enjoyment, kindness and natural talent. The stage is Birth, a fresh beginning. You also sit on three good stars. The Nobleman brings helpful people when you need them. The Academic Star and the Study Hall add a bright, curious mind. This is also your partner's seat. You tend to look after your partner with warmth and gentle fun.
You tend to be gentle, gifted and lucky with people, with a natural talent for care.

Palaces
Methods for calculating the palaces vary between schools.

Gilded and delicate
Craftspeople lay gold leaf on picture frames with a soft brush and a steady hand. Here your Life Palace is Yin Water over the Rabbit, named Gold Leaf. It tends to suggest refinement and taste, with a gentle touch that works better than force.
You tend to succeed through care and taste rather than by pushing hard.
Conception palace
Dew on spring leaves
Fine rain, Yin Water, falls on the Rabbit's young spring leaves. Its old name is Gold Leaf, beauty that is delicate and needs a firm base. Tradition reads this seed as graceful and sensitive, at its best with steady support.
You were likely born gentle, with a feel for beauty that shines when you feel supported.

Gold leaf: beauty and refinement.
