What kind of person is the 경자 Day Pillar?
The Gyeongja Day Pillar is the image of metal (Gyeong Metal) tempered in cold water (Ja Water). As Metal and Water meeting in double clarity (金水雙淸), your judgment is fast and your logic precise. The Day Branch, Ja Water, is Hurting Officer (傷官) to Gyeong Metal, so your speech is blunt, and when you see something wrong you point it out no matter who it is.
The Twelve Life Stage is Death (死), so you have the researcher's temperament of digging deep into one field. Ja Water is a Peach Blossom branch, so you are popular with the opposite sex for your refined charm, and the Im Water (Eating God) and Gye Water (Hurting Officer) inside Ja bring your talent out through speech, writing and technique.
Your weakness is temperature. The water is cold, so in situations that call for comfort you offer solutions first and leave the other person hurt. With Hurting Officer in the spouse palace, your habit of evaluating your spouse's words and actions becomes the source of conflict in the marriage. For women, Hurting Officer strikes the husband (Officer star), so you cannot tolerate a husband's incompetence. You suit research, law, IT, journalism, the arts and medicine.
The 경자 Day Pillar's Saju cat
Up-all-night thinking Bengal
You call right and wrong on the spot, and once you decide, your body is already moving. Your words are short and sharp, so for you the matter is over while the other person holds onto it for a long time. Without a physical goal to pour it into, that strength leaks out as irritation. You're a night-owl brain that only gets going after 11 p.m.
Day Master Gyeong (庚) — The person like raw ore and steel waiting to be forged hard
Gyeong Metal (庚金) means rock, raw ore, and forged steel. You conclude and cut off quickly, and you draw a clear line between your side and the other side. You are the person who delivers more as the pressure rises.
Strengths
- The decisiveness to move without long deliberation
- The loyalty to protect your side even at a loss
- The competitive grit that gets stronger against deadlines and rivals
- The reforming will to tear up outdated rules
- The execution to bring results instead of words
Watch out for
- Never sees someone again once you judge it a betrayal
- Words that ignore the listener's feelings
- Goes slack in a comfortable position without pressure
- Cannot say 'thank you' or 'I'm sorry' out loud
What is love like for the 경자 Day Pillar?
Gyeong Metal's friends are few but certain. When a friend is treated unfairly, you step in and take it up on their behalf. In romance you express your feelings by picking them up and fixing what is broken. But you do not say 'I love you', so your partner wants reassurance. When a fight starts, you bring out 'then let's break up' far too quickly.
One-line advice
Wait three days before cutting someone off. Most of the people Gyeong Metal loses to misunderstanding are people the misunderstanding would have cleared up with within those three days. When you point something out, attach one thing done well to the one thing to fix. In a fight, never bring out 'let's break up' or 'I quit'. Gyeong Metal actually follows through on those words.
