Yang Water Day Master —
The Open Sea

Who you are

You wither when you stay still. Your view is wide and your ideas are big, and you do not fear diving into a world you have never seen. You hold a great deal and show only some of it — a sea whose depth takes time to learn.

Strengths

• A strategist's eye for the whole board.
• Room for many kinds of people at once.

Watch out for

• Routine and restriction are genuinely hard for you to bear.
• Holding too much, you sometimes lose the direction.

In love

You love with room in it — no cages, no daily accounting. Partners feel free and occasionally adrift. The Sea stays when it is trusted with its own tides; leave the door open and it keeps coming back.

At work

Wide waters: strategy, international work, trade, research, platforms, anything that rewards seeing further than the next quarter. Narrow desks sink you.

Chemistry — who you combine and clash with

Combines with Yin Fire — The Candle Flame. Yang Water combines with Yin Fire (丁壬合). A lighthouse over the night sea — the precious partner who gives your vast current a direction.

Clashes with Yang Fire — The Midday Sun. Yang Water clashes with Yang Fire (丙壬沖). Sun and sea competing for the sky. Stand side by side instead and you make the largest landscape there is.

Two Day Masters are only the first line of a compatibility reading. Put in both birth dates and the match page adds what you are to each other in the Ten Gods and whether your elements fill each other's gaps.

Strong, balanced or weak?

The same Day Master reads differently depending on how well it is supported by the other seven characters.

• Strong — An ocean in storm — immense, sometimes indiscriminate. Choose a harbor.
• Balanced — Deep and navigable — the Sea with charts, which is when it does its best work.
• Weak — A stream that wants to be a sea. Follow one river all the way down; scale comes from persistence, not width.
