Geng Zi Day Pillar —
A Blade Quenched in Cold Water
Metal giving birth to water.
Who you are
Metal giving birth to water. Hurting Officer below makes speech sharp and critical and talent abundant. Death gives depth and quiet, but when it speaks it strikes precisely. Bright and principled, it cannot tolerate absurdity — hence frequent clashes with superiors.
The Day Master is the "you" of the chart — here, The Raw Blade: The one who does not postpone — it cuts. What gives Geng Zi its own color is the room the Rat beneath it offers.
What the Rat branch says
The Day Branch is your inner room and your spouse seat. The Rat (子, Zi) carries 2 hidden stems:
Yang Water (壬, Ren) — Eating God
Yin Water (癸, Gui) — Hurting Officer main qi
With Hurting Officer in the Day Branch, the spouse seat holds expression and talent. You meet interesting people; words that run ahead are the seed of quarrels, so speak a beat later.
Twelve-stage: Death — motion stops, depth begins. Quiet on the outside, unusually deep in thought and spirit.
In love
Attractive, but bluntness wounds. Choosing the warm word over the correct one makes the relationship far easier.
At work
Media, law, technology, art — sharpness as skill. The eye that finds the flaw is the asset.

One line to keep
A blade gets sharper in water, but words should cool once before they leave — that is how you keep people.
