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 己未, here's what the app reads in it.
What you sit on: your day pillar
A sunlit field in late summer
Your field lies under a hot late-summer sky. The Goat is the same earth as you, dry and warm. Its main star is the Friend, the star of self-reliance and loyal peers. Inside also sit a little Indirect Resource, quiet know-how, and a little Seven Killings, pressure. The stage is Maturing, a young adult setting out. This is your partner's seat too. A partner tends to feel like an equal and a teammate. A little rain and some softness keep the field from cracking.
You tend to be steady and self-reliant, and you do best with a partner who's a teammate.
Why?
A sunlit field in late summer

未 holds 己, 丁, 乙: 比肩 Friend, 偏印 Indirect Resource, 七殺 Seven Killings for 己. 己 is at the 冠帶 (Maturing) stage in 未. The Na Yin of 己未 is 天上火. The day branch is the spouse palace; here it is the same element as the Day Master.
Traditional reading
It follows the traditional BaZi reading: what a practitioner reads in the pillar and in how it meets your chart.
Palaces
Methods for calculating the palaces vary between schools.
Life palace
The summer sky
On a long summer afternoon, the whole sky seems to glow. Here your Life Palace is Yin Earth over the Goat, which tradition calls Fire in the Sky. It often suggests openness and a big heart, with a need to rest so the light doesn't burn too hot.
You tend to give a lot of yourself, so rest helps your light last.
Conception palace
Earth in the summer heat
Soft earth, Yin Earth, lies over the Goat, more warm, dry earth. Its old name is Fire in the Sky, the summer sun that ripens the crops. Tradition reads this seed as steady and nourishing, with a warmth that matures things.
You were likely born steady and caring, helping things ripen in their own time.
Na Yin
天上火 Sky fire
Sky fire: the light that lights everything.
