The pattern of your day
Born on January 7, you need a constraint to work at all, because Capricorn earth builds against limits and stalls in open space.
Give you a constraint and you will produce something good. Give you a blank page, a free hand and no deadline, and you will produce almost nothing at all, and you have been calling that a failure of imagination for most of your life.
Stop calling it that. It is not what is happening.
A brief tells you what the problem is. Freedom arrives without a problem attached, and you cannot work without one, because your entire method is the removal of obstacles and open space contains none to remove.
The honest consequence is that you have chosen, more than once, a smaller life with a clear shape over a larger one with none. That was a real trade and you made it with your eyes open, whatever you tell people about circumstances.
What you have never seriously tried is manufacturing the constraint yourself. You have always waited for one to be imposed, by an employer or a family or a deadline somebody else set.
An invented limit works exactly as well as a real one. The only requirement is that you agree to be bound by it.

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.
