The shape of you

You are The Wood () 甲. Born in the spring of April, your 甲 Wood leans yielding - and the season leaves this finely balanced, so read it as a leaning the rest of your chart settles, not a fixed fact. The hour you were born decides which way it tips. Yang Wood, the great tree: upright growth and leadership, breaks new ground; principled, can be unbending. As an element, Wood (木) is growth and vision: expansion, planning, the drive to begin and build upward.

How you sit

Your 甲 sits on 午 (the Horse ()) - in the twelve-stage cycle this is 死 (Death): Death - completion of cycle. The Horse (Yang Fire, summer): the peak of fire - drive, vitality, visibility, a restless engine. Underneath, seated in your inner palace, is Hurting Officer (伤官) (via hidden 丁) - sharp expression: brilliance that breaks the rules, the critic's eye, talent that cuts. Beneath that sit 正财 (己).

The season that forges you

What this chart reaches for is Water (水). Whether you already carry it is the rest of your chart - the season sets the need, not the answer. What helps you: Water, Metal. What works against you: Earth, Fire.

Your three pillars in conversation

The loudest conversation in your chart is between your day and your year: 三合 (a trine) with 戊寅 - two parts of one Fire triad - you pull the same way, naturally aligned toward a shared aim.

What you carry

The channel that runs strongest through your stems and hidden stems is 伤官 - sharp expression: brilliance that breaks the rules, the critic's eye, talent that cuts. Your day-pillar nayin is Gold in the Sand (沙中金) (沙中金) - gold in the sand - worth hidden in the ordinary, found by sifting.
