The sixty birth days

甲戌

Born on a 甲戌 day

You are a Yang Wood Dog

A reading for anyone born on a 甲戌 day starts from the line above. The top character stands for you, and the one under it is the animal of your birth day.

This page reads only the two characters of your birth day. The characters of your birth year, month and hour can strengthen what is said here or undo it.

What kind of person you are

A standing tree

You choose one direction and keep to it, so other people can plan around you. The classical picture for you is a standing tree, which grows straight up and does not go around things. The cost is that you are slow to change course, and you resist being pushed where you did not choose to go.

Day animal

The Dog

  • Stands by peopleStays loyal without attaching conditions
  • Plays fairSticks to its principles even when that costs it
  • The catchStays in a role long after it was free to leave

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 can make money by going after it: deals, ventures and one-off wins rather than a salary. This money comes in large amounts and goes out in large amounts. The cost is that your income is rarely steady. The animal of your birth day brings you Big money.

Partner and self: how much strength you bring

Building up quietly

Here you build up quietly, and none of it is wasted. The cost is that for a while, people may value you at less than you are worth.

What is hard to keep hold of

Any part of your life that sits on 申 and 酉 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.

How it gets on with the other animals

Pulls together
The Rabbit
Easy to fall into, hard to leave. The Dog and the Rabbit are one of the six pairs that pull together, the closest link two animals can have.
Clashes head-on
The Dragon
A pairing that does not let either person stay the same. The Dragon sits directly opposite the Dog on the circle of twelve: a head-on clash. That makes it a restless match, not a bad one.
Team of three
The TigerThe Horse
These three get the most done together. With the Tiger and the Horse, the Dog makes a team of three that pulls toward Fire.
