The pattern of your day
Born on December 17, being handled registers instantly, and Sagittarius fire refuses good ideas on procedure whenever they arrive as steering.
Any attempt to manage you registers instantly, and produces a reaction out of all proportion to whatever was actually attempted.
It makes no difference that the handling was gentle, or benign, or straightforwardly in your interest. You can tell being asked from being steered the way other people can tell a smell, immediately and with no analysis involved, and once you have detected it the content of the request stops mattering to you entirely.
Fire near the end of December will not be led anywhere it did not decide to go.
The people close to you have adapted, and the adaptation is expensive. They have learned that nothing can be arranged around you quietly, that every suggestion has to arrive as an open proposal with its reasoning fully exposed, and that a good idea presented the wrong way will be refused on procedure alone.
Most of them keep doing it. A few of them stopped.
That is the part worth noticing. Somebody who cannot be steered also cannot be helped by anyone unwilling to do the extra work, and the result is that you end up with less influence over your own life rather than more.

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.
