Born on January 31

The pattern of your day

Born on January 31, your ideas arrive from an angle nobody watched, so Aquarius air gets discounted uniformly, the good ones included.

Your answers do not come from where other people's come from. They are not variations on the existing solution, they arrive from an angle nobody in the room was watching, and about half of them are unusable.

The half that fails is not a flaw in the method. It is the method. An approach that generated only workable ideas would be an approach that never left the known space, and the known space is precisely where you add nothing.

The difficulty is in the presentation, not the generation.

You put them all forward the same way, in the same tone, with the same conviction, because you genuinely cannot tell your own good ones from your own wild ones at the moment of having them. Nobody can, from inside.

So people have learned to discount everything you say by about half, and the discount is applied uniformly, including to the ones that were right.

Label them. Say which are half formed and which you would defend. You lose nothing by it, and the good ones stop being taxed at the same rate as the rest.

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.
