Im-sul Day Pillar 壬戌

Im-sul Day Pillar: traits and personality

Like a river that builds up its current behind a solid bank, you tend to release built-up force all at once. Even when you sit quietly your presence is large, so all eyes naturally turn to you. Seven Killings holds firm in the Earthly Branch of your Day Pillar, so you put pressure on yourself and have a strong drive to push toward goals. Your Twelve Life Stage is Crown, so you brim with confidence and do not shrink even from big challenges. You are smart and quick at calculating, so you read the state of play fast. When a crisis hits, your eyes actually light up. Like a loyal Dog, once you trust someone, you try to keep your promises to them to the end. You may look tough on the outside, but you have a hidden soft spot that will not let you pass by someone vulnerable.

What you do well

When things get shaky, you hold steady and can turn the tide. Once you have a goal, you dig in tenaciously and end up making a way. You are bold and big-hearted, so people naturally lean on you and follow. You draw the big picture and still keep your numbers accurate.

What to watch out for

Your presence is strong, so you sometimes overwhelm someone without meaning to. The habit of pushing yourself makes it easy to miss when you should rest. Now and then, practice easing off and speaking more softly, and the atmosphere around you will become much more comfortable.

In love

Despite your tough exterior, you are surprisingly kind and devoted in love. You have a strong urge to protect your partner, so you try to handle hard things for them. You are the type who shows reliability in daily life more than on anniversaries. You do not like giving up control, though, and if you try to decide even your partner's choices, they may feel stifled. Before you decide, ask them first what they would like.

Career and working style

The weightier the job, the more your focus rises. Management, law, sales and crisis management, work that deals with high stakes and needs fast decisions, suit you. Once you set a goal, you drive toward it all the way, so leading an organization fits you. But if you shoulder everything alone you tire quickly, so keep dependable colleagues by your side.

How you spend money

You have the nerve to handle big money and a quick eye for chances to make it. At times the urge to move big all at once gets ahead of you, so your finances can swing up and down. When ambition runs ahead, first set aside the portion you will not touch.
