Meaning and Context
Sixty Jiazi is an encyclopedia term in sexagenary-cycle and Chinese timing system. It names a specific layer of the system; read it by checking the ten Heavenly Stems, twelve Earthly Branches, sixty-cycle sequence, and calendar use, then compare it with Heavenly Stems, Earthly Branches, Stems and Branches, Bazi / Four Pillars so the entry explains what the term means before it becomes advice.
Source Context
Sixty Jiazi belongs to the vocabulary of sexagenary-cycle and Chinese timing system. A source-aware note should first define the system layer, then show which evidence is checked (the ten Heavenly Stems, twelve Earthly Branches, sixty-cycle sequence, and calendar use) and only after that describe practical use or cautions.
How It Works
To understand Sixty Jiazi, identify its system layer and compare Heavenly Stems, Earthly Branches, Stems and Branches, Bazi / Four Pillars. The practical question is not whether the word appears, but what the ten Heavenly Stems, twelve Earthly Branches, sixty-cycle sequence, and calendar use says in this case and how much weight that evidence deserves.

In FateFolio
In a FateFolio Bazi report, Sixty Jiazi should be used as an explanatory anchor: define the term, show the observed evidence from the ten Heavenly Stems, twelve Earthly Branches, sixty-cycle sequence, and calendar use, and point to the next related section rather than turning the term into a one-line verdict.
