Born on April 22

The pattern of your day

April 22 puts roots down before anything shows above, so Taurus earth is never the most impressive person in an interview.

A transplanted thing spends its entire first season doing nothing visible at all. It is putting out roots, and the part above ground will not move until the part below is satisfied.

You are like this with anything new. New job, new city, new relationship: slow, unimpressive, faintly withdrawn, and then somewhere around month eight you become the person nobody can imagine the place without. Anyone who judged you at week three got you completely wrong.

Earth in late April anchors before it grows. That is not caution exactly. It is a refusal to build anything on ground you have not personally tested, and it has saved you from at least two disasters that other people walked straight into.

What it costs you, permanently, is the first impression. You will never be the most impressive person in an interview, and you have stopped trying to solve that particular problem. The people worth having tend to arrive later anyway, once there is something to see.

Establishment is the date's contribution. How deep it runs depends on your year, computed below.

What is a Birth Hexagram?

Your Birth Hexagram Triad is three things at once: a Primary Hexagram (who you are), a Changing Line (your growth edge), and a Resultant Hexagram (who you are becoming). It is computed, not guessed, from the Chinese lunar calendar via the Plum Blossom method.
