Gap-o Day Pillar 甲午

Gap-o Day Pillar: traits and personality

You are like a summer tree with blossoms on every branch: whatever you carry inside, you bring out into the open. Your straight-growing Wood energy sits on top of Fire, which here means speech, so you feel a strong urge to show people what is in your head. The Hurting Officer in the Earthly Branch of your Day Pillar gives you plenty of natural talent and a reluctance to bow to rules for their own sake. When you believe something is right, you speak up. Your Twelve Life Stage is Death, a name that sounds grim but actually points to the power of digging deep into one thing and thinking it through. That is why you can seem bright and chatty and still be quite thoughtful when you are alone. You look after people and lift a room's mood, so you are rarely short of company.

What you do well

You are full of ideas and good at putting them into words. You warm up to strangers fast and make a room feel brighter. You tend to spot a problem before anyone else and show up with a fix too, so people in any group are happy to leave things in your hands.

What to watch out for

A thought pops up and out it comes, which can sound sharper than you meant. If you do not like how someone above you does things, it shows. You start fast but can run out of steam near the end, so pick a few things you will see through before you begin.

In love

You cannot hide it when you like someone, so you show it openly in words and actions. Time with you is full of fun stories, and a partner never gets bored. Because your opinions are so clear, though, an argument can turn into a debate you try to win. In those moments, ask how the other person feels before deciding who is right. It helps the relationship last. You are most at ease with someone who respects your thinking.

Career and working style

You shine when you get to talk, teach or create. Lecturing, broadcasting, planning, writing and design all suit you, anywhere your own style can show. Repeating a fixed procedure wears you down quickly, but give you a chance to suggest a new method and you will deliver results faster than most. Working solo or freelancing could fit you well too.

How you spend money

Your talent turns straight into income, so the more you build your skills, the more paths open up. Mood spending can creep up, so keeping a separate savings account that fills automatically will give you peace of mind.
