Born on a 乙酉 day

What kind of person you are

A climbing vine

You adapt, and you last. The classical picture for you is a climbing vine, which reaches the height of a tree by using the tree. So you get where you want by working with what is around you, and people who mistake flexibility for weakness underestimate you. The cost is that you can come to rely on others to hold you up.

Day animal

The Rooster

• Names the standardSays the thing, and can explain the standard behind it
• Comes preparedGets it right down to the detail, every time
• The catchRight, but not listened to, because of how and when it says it

This page is about a birth-day animal, not a birth-year animal. Everyone has a day animal, from the day they were born, and it is often not the year animal they know.

What the two characters do to each other

You face pressure you did not ask for: hard deadlines, difficult people, demands you cannot put off. If you have enough strength, it makes you better at what you do. If you do not, it wears you down. The animal of your birth day brings you Pressure.

Partner and self: how much strength you bring

Starting from nothing

Here you inherited nothing, so you owe nothing. The cost is that there is nothing to fall back on: whatever you have here, you made yourself.

What is hard to keep hold of

Any part of your life that sits on 午 and 未 is hard for you to keep hold of. These two of the twelve animals count as empty for you, and the day you were born decides which two.

• The Horse
• The Goat

How it gets on with the other animals

Pulls together

The Dragon

Easy to fall into, hard to leave. The Rooster and the Dragon are one of the six pairs that pull together, the closest link two animals can have.

Clashes head-on

The Rabbit

A pairing that does not let either person stay the same. The Rabbit sits directly opposite the Rooster on the circle of twelve: a head-on clash. That makes it a restless match, not a bad one.

Team of three

The SnakeThe Ox

These three get the most done together. With the Snake and the Ox, the Rooster makes a team of three that pulls toward Metal.
