Born on May 5

The pattern of your day

Born on May 5, patience comes easily and faith does not, so Taurus earth needs long work broken into visible increments.

The first thing you can actually eat arrives in May, and it is always modest. A handful of something, weeks ahead of the real yield, out of ground that has been worked since February.

You need that early return more than you let on. You will sustain effort for a very long time, longer than almost anyone, but you need one small piece of evidence that it is working, and without it you quietly begin doubting the entire enterprise.

Taurus in the first week of May understands the difference between patience and faith. You have a great deal of the first. The second you have always found harder.

This is worth knowing about yourself, because it means the right structure for you is not a long haul with a distant payoff. It is a long haul with visible increments, and you can build that deliberately.

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.
