Born on a 壬戌 day

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 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 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

Newly appointed

Here you take on a position and make something of it, with enough strength to get things moving. The cost is that, like anyone new in a role, you find it hard to compromise.

What is hard to keep hold of

Any part of your life that sits on 子 and 丑 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 Rat
• The Ox

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.
