庚子

Born on a 庚子 day

You are a Yang Metal Rat

A reading for anyone born on a 庚子 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.

Traditional name: Day pillar 庚子 (gyeongja)
Place in the order: 37 of 60

What kind of person you are

Raw ore

You decide fast and do not back down, and you do your best under pressure rather than in comfort. The classical picture for you is raw ore, or the blade made from it: hard, and useful because it does not bend. The cost is that people can find you harsh.

Day animal

The Rat

Notices earlyPicks up the mood and the way out before anyone speaks
Makes doGets things working on far less than others need
The catchWorks things out alone and never shows how, so people hesitate to trust 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 say what you think, not the polite version. Your talent is the same kind as Natural talent, but it does not follow rules. The cost is friction with the people above you, and the more talent, the more friction. The animal of your birth day brings you Sharp talent.

Partner and self: how much strength you bring

Thinking before acting

Here you think rather than act, and you stay calm when things are urgent. The cost is that you are slow when there is a short chance to act: the conclusion is right and the timing is late.

What is hard to keep hold of

Any part of your life that sits on 辰 and 巳 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 Ox; Easy to fall into, hard to leave. The Rat and the Ox are one of the six pairs that pull together, the closest link two animals can have.
Clashes head-on: The Horse; A pairing that does not let either person stay the same. The Horse sits directly opposite the Rat on the circle of twelve: a head-on clash. That makes it a restless match, not a bad one.
Team of three: The Monkey The Dragon; These three get the most done together. With the Monkey and the Dragon, the Rat makes a team of three that pulls toward Water.

To find your own day animal, enter your birth date. It takes about a minute.
