Born on December 22

The pattern of your day

Most years give December 22 to Capricorn earth, which supplies a vision already costed, and arguments almost nobody can win against.

The turn is behind you in the great majority of years. Which side of it you were actually born on is a question about your particular year, and the date is not the authority. The sun is, and the sun has never once consulted the twenty-second of December.

What changes across that line is what a person does with a long horizon. Before it, distance is invitation: the far thing is exciting because it is far. After it, distance is arithmetic: the far thing is reachable, and here is what it will take, and here is the first of the eleven years.

You have both. It is why your plans are unusually hard to argue with. The vision half supplies something worth doing and the engineering half has already costed it, and most people can only bring one of those to a conversation.

The trouble is internal rather than external. The half of you that plans in decades is quietly contemptuous of the half that dreams, and it wins nearly every argument, and it has occasionally talked you out of things that were worth doing badly.

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.
