Born on October 10

The pattern of your day

October 10 reads its own standing off other people's faces, so Libra air assembles a self-portrait from unrelated bad mornings.

You find out how you are doing by watching faces. Not consciously, and not because you are insecure about it, but because that is where your instrument points and it has always pointed there.

It is a superb instrument. You read a room at the door. You know before the meeting starts who has already spoken to whom, and you are right about it far more often than chance would allow.

The problem is not the instrument. It is the source it draws from.

People's faces mostly report their own weather. The colleague who was short with you had a phone call before you arrived. The friend who seemed distant was working out how to pay for something. You take these readings and you file them as data about yourself, and you have been carrying around a portrait of who you are that is assembled almost entirely from other people's unrelated bad mornings.

Try running a week where you decide in advance how the thing went, before you look up. You will find you are a harsher judge than the room ever was, and considerably better informed.

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.
