戊寅

Born on a 戊寅 day

You are a Yang Earth Tiger

A reading for anyone born on a 戊寅 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 戊寅 (muin)
Place in the order: 15 of 60

What kind of person you are

A mountain

You are steady and hard to alarm, and people lean on you without asking whether you can take it. The classical picture for you is a mountain, which other things are measured against. The cost is that moving, changing and starting are hard for you, even though enduring is easy.

Day animal

The Tiger

Acts firstMoves before thinking it through, and it works often enough
Has to leadWill not take orders; needs to set the terms itself
The catchStarts strong, then the follow-through and the finish fade

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

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

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