The pattern of your day

By June 21 the turn has generally happened into Cancer water, which describes a feeling precisely and drowns in it within the hour.

The turn has usually happened by the twenty-first, though its hour, and occasionally its date, belongs to whichever year you were born into.

This is the hinge between the element that talks and the element that feels, and you have a foot on either side of it. You can describe an emotion with precision and you can be completely submerged in one, sometimes inside the same hour, and the two capacities cooperate far less than people assume they would.

The solstice sits here too, so your birthday is a maximum as well as a crossing. The longest light, and the first day of its withdrawal, both inside the same twenty-four hours.

That has given you an unsentimental relationship with good things. You take them seriously and you do not expect them to hold, which sounds bleak and is actually the reason you are present for them in a way more optimistic people never manage. That is not pessimism. It is attendance.

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.
