Gapjin Day Pillar (甲辰) — A blue dragon rooted in fertile ground

What kind of person is the 갑진 Day Pillar?

The Gapjin Day Pillar is the image of a great tree (Gap Wood) rooted in fertile spring ground (Jin Earth), compared to a blue dragon (靑龍). The Day Branch, Jin Earth, is Indirect Wealth (偏財) to Gap Wood, so you have a sense for handling wealth of real scale, like land and businesses, and you lay out big plans.

The Twelve Life Stage is Decline (衰), so your judgment drawn from experience is more accurate than your passion. Within Jin Earth are Eul Wood (Rob Wealth), Gye Water (Direct Resource) and Mu Earth (Indirect Wealth), and because Gye Water moistens your roots, you have the endurance to carry one business for a long time. Because of Eul Wood Rob Wealth, you end up sharing wealth with business partners and siblings. This pillar is known to carry the White Tiger (白虎) energy, so when blocked you break through head-on.

Your weakness is expansion. When things go well you overextend and your capital gets tied up. Expand only after confirming your cash reserve. With Indirect Wealth in the spouse palace, after marriage you are the one who takes financial responsibility for your spouse, and you make the big money decisions for the household. You suit business, real estate, management, construction and education.

Day Master Gap (甲) — The person who grows straight and tall like a great tree

Gap Wood (甲木) means a great tree growing straight toward the sky. You push in the direction you have set, and when the field is empty you plant your flag first. You are the kind who holds out and breaks rather than bends.

What is love like for the 갑진 Day Pillar?

When a friend is in trouble, you offer solutions before comfort. 'I'll look into it' is your catchphrase, and you actually do. Once you decide someone is your person, it lasts a long time. In romance you try to decide everything from date plans to your partner's career path, and you hear 'Don't I get a say?'. When what your partner wants is to be heard rather than fixed, you cannot read the difference and you fight.

One-line advice

Practice keeping the goal and changing only the route. When you make a plan, write down from the start a second path, 'if this is blocked, I go this way', and you will not snap. Push back on a superior's instruction a day later, not on the spot. In romance, before offering a solution, ask first: 'Do you want advice, or do you want me to listen?'
