Gemini season - the air sign of the western zodiac
The pattern of your day
Born on May 22, you cannot leave a working process unexamined, and Gemini air has interrupted natural abilities that took years to recover.
Breath is nearly the only thing you do continuously that you can also take over by hand at any moment. Almost nothing else in you works that way.
You live at that switch. Most of your life runs on automatic competence and then, without warning, you take conscious control of something everyone else is doing without thinking, and you become briefly unbearable and occasionally brilliant.
Gemini is an air sign, and your birthday sits early in its run. Air is the element of exchange, and you are constitutionally unable to leave a process unexamined, including the ones that were working perfectly well.
The obvious cost is that examining a thing changes it. You have thought about several natural abilities long enough to interrupt them, and getting them back took years you would rather have spent otherwise.
That double register is the date's. Your birth year decides where it points, and there is a calculation for it below.

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.
