Born on a 丁酉 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 Rooster

• Names the standardSays the thing, and can explain the standard behind it
• Comes preparedGets it right down to the detail, every time
• The catchRight, but not listened to, because of how and when it says 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 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

Just starting out

Here you are just starting, and you are open and willing to learn. The cost is that you have nothing to show yet, so progress here usually needs someone to back you.

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.

• The Dragon
• The Snake

How it gets on with the other animals

Pulls together

The Dragon

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

Clashes head-on

The Rabbit

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

Team of three

The SnakeThe Ox

These three get the most done together. With the Snake and the Ox, the Rooster makes a team of three that pulls toward Metal.
