“Understanding myself through the five elements. Today's fortune is what I create.”
The five elements, composed of wood (木), fire (火), earth (土), metal (金), and water (水), are an important principle in Tongyang philosophy that explains humanity and nature. Although a person's tendencies cannot be merely categorized into five, the five elements symbolize the energy that underlies all things, allowing for the analysis of an individual's temperament and fortune. A deep understanding of the five elements will provide clearer insights into the world, including oneself. Today's fortune is not just a simple prediction but a guide for the day I am creating. I hope it serves as a starting point for making better decisions.
Today is Jeongchugi (丁丑日) of Eulsan (乙巳年) and Myomul (己卯月). It is a day where inconsequential matters dominate rather than substantial issues, facilitated by the harmony of yin fire and yin earth. Although Jeonghwa (丁火) benefits from the assistance of Myomul (卯月) wood, it may not easily thaw the cold energy surrounding it. Even tasks undertaken with good intentions may not go smoothly, so it’s advisable not to become too discouraged.
Below are today's fortunes by each element.
● Wood (木) element today's fortune, “Searching for a needle in a desert”
It could be a day where the flow might feel frustrating, like searching for a needle in a desert. The issues I face may not be my own, but rather the frustrating flow around me. It's better to be prepared, as I might be late for an appointment or the materials I've promised to deliver might arrive late.
This is not a day when one cannot manifest energy at all. There are elements like Sahwa (巳火) and Jeonghwa (丁火) that could help yield results from a wood (木) perspective. However, it won't be simple for this fire (火) energy to thaw the frozen ground. This means that the wood (木) element will struggle to take root. The day's frustrations may feel greater than my actual abilities.
● Fire (火) element today's fortune, “Just protecting my own is 50% success”
Just by protecting my own, I can achieve at least 50% success. It’s a day when others may struggle, making it seem like I am succeeding relatively. However, the more I succeed, the more people may want to take that success away from me. Be especially cautious not to buy meals for no reason or lend items without expecting to get them back.
Jeongchugi (丁丑日) is a day that could bring subtle benefits to fire (火). Compared to other horoscopes that might face burdens or significant changes, this one is filled with warm energy that can benefit earth (土). However, if I shine too brightly alone, it’s crucial to ensure that I don’t lose what belongs to me.
● Earth (土) element today's fortune, “Break your stubbornness”
Even if my thoughts are correct, the people around me might perceive them as frustrating. While these concerns might be ahead of the game, it could paint me as inflexible to someone. Those with overly strong opinions might miss good opportunities, so knowing when to be flexible in decisive moments is essential.
While the energy of earth (土) may provide stability, it isn’t necessarily a pleasant form of stability. It could excessively hinder the growth of wood (木). As there is also a lack of metal (金) and water (水) energies that could harmonize the earth (土), I need to be mindful to avoid becoming too dry and rigid.
● Metal (金) element today's fortune, “Little drops make an ocean”
It’s a day when actions I took without being prompted by someone else might gather together to produce results. Small habits of mine could start shining. It’s a great time to make slightly bold requests or courageously convey my feelings. I might also look out for some financial gains.
Jeongchugi (丁丑日) can bring small benefits to metal (金). The energy drain from fire (火) isn’t particularly strong, while the cold energy of earth (土) predominantly surfaces. The actions taken to appear favorable might not have been intentional, but in any case, good outcomes are welcome.
● Water (水) element today's fortune, “One's own choice”
Today is a day when what bothers me will fade away. It’s a day where energy can flow according to my desires. However, I can't simply rejoice in that. It also means I have to tackle challenging problems on my own.
Jeongchugi (丁丑日) presents flows that are not particularly difficult for water (水) to manage. Although the energy appears different, the overall flow is similar. However, the lack of someone to provide counsel means I must take full responsibility for all my choices. This is likely not always a good thing.
