Mu-jin Day Pillar 戊辰

Mu-jin Day Pillar: traits and personality

Picture a broad mountain where a dragon dwells, and the Mu-Jin Day Pillar comes easily into view. You seem quiet on the outside, but the goals you hold inside are big and not easily shaken. A Companion occupies the Earthly Branch of your Day Pillar, so you have a strong sense of independence and prefer to stand on your own two feet. Your Twelve Life Stage is Crown, like someone who has just reached adulthood and dressed the part, full of confidence. Once you trust a person, you hold them close to the end, and when trouble comes you quietly share the load. Because your nature is like spring earth heavy with moisture, you are deeper and more emotional than you look. You believe strongly in your own way, so you find it hard to take advice right away. You move slowly, but once you start, you see it through.

What you do well

Your center rarely wobbles, so people lean on you in a crisis. You see the big picture and can bind many people into one team. Your tenacity stands out: you take responsibility for what you are given, however long it takes.

What to watch out for

When you believe you are right, you rarely back down, and to those around you that can look like stubbornness. Before you decide, hear out even one opposing view to the end and your judgment will be firmer still.

In love

In love too, you are a dependable pillar. You show your heart by staying beside someone for the long haul rather than with flashy gestures. Your way of showing feelings can come across as gruff, which may leave a partner wanting reassurance, so offer a kind word first once in a while. When both of you dig in on pride, conversation stalls, so it helps to have the grace to take a step back. You go well with someone warm who also has a strong sense of self.

Career and working style

You fit well where people and resources are gathered to build something big. You show your skill in large-scale, long-term work such as construction or operations management. Your independence means you would rather build your own domain than stay under someone else for long, and that wish is what gives your work its power. When you partner with others, it is better to divide roles and shares clearly from the start.

How you spend money

Your money tends to come in big waves and go out the same way. You are generous, and a lot may flow out to look after people around you. Locking away a lump sum so it is hard to spend will let it pile up steadily.
