壬子

Born on a 壬子 day

You are a Yang Water Rat

A reading for anyone born on a 壬子 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.

What kind of person you are

The open sea

You keep most of what you think to yourself, and you are hard to stop. The classical picture for you is the open sea: wide, deep, and always moving somewhere. So you think in large terms, and you go around obstacles instead of through them. The cost is that people find you hard to read.

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

Someone close to you wants the same things you want: a coworker, a brother or sister, a friend. When you are short of strength, they back you up. When you already have plenty, they compete with you for the same things. The animal of your birth day brings you Rivals.

Partner and self: how much strength you bring

At full strength

This is where you are strongest: when you push, things move. The cost is that you find it hard to believe others might be right when they disagree. Mistakes here come from having too much, not too little.

What is hard to keep hold of

Any part of your life that sits on 寅 and 卯 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.
