Born on a 丁卯 day

What kind of person you are

A lamp in a dark room

You give your warmth with care to a few people, not to everyone. The classical picture for you is a lamp in a dark room: small, and exactly where it is needed. So you notice details that people with a broader view miss. The cost is that you need looking after too, and you cannot keep going on nothing.

Day animal

The Rabbit

• Wins quietlyNever raises its voice and still gets what it wanted
• Leaves in timeGets out just before a situation turns bad
• The catchWhat it avoided is still there, years later

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 learn best outside the usual routes: teaching yourself, studying alone, following your own interest. You end up knowing things other people do not. The cost is that recognition comes slowly. The animal of your birth day brings you Unusual learning.

Partner and self: how much strength you bring

Working with little margin

Here you work with little margin, and that makes you notice what others miss. The cost is that one extra demand can be too much.

What is hard to keep hold of

Any part of your life that sits on 戌 and 亥 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 Dog
• The Pig

How it gets on with the other animals

Pulls together

The Dog

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

Clashes head-on

The Rooster

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

Team of three

The PigThe Goat

These three get the most done together. With the Pig and the Goat, the Rabbit makes a team of three that pulls toward Wood.
