丙子 Day Pillar · Bing · Rat

점박사 편집팀 · 수정일 2026-08-19

The noon sun and midwinter water, set face to face.

Stem Bing (丙) · Branch Rat (子)

Bing (丙) is yang Fire, which the Dichten Sui calls fierce (丙火猛烈), and Zi (子) is the Water of high winter (仲冬). With cold water checking strong fire (水剋火), it reads as the two set facing each other.

How to read this pairing

Jeombaksa reads this as cold water checking strong fire, the two facing off. This is only the imagery of a two-character pairing; actual tendencies must be read with the other six characters and the season.

What the combination shows

• Strong fire met by cold water, set face to face
• Midwinter water checking summer fire, a scene to map to
• A combination where brightness and cold hold taut against each other

A note of caution

Within these two characters only these elements show; the other six characters of the chart may hold other elements. Don’t judge character from the Day Pillar’s two characters alone.

In everyday scenes (work · relationships)

Work · This can be mapped to a work scene, but it doesn’t indicate job aptitude.

Relationships · This can be mapped to a relationship scene too, but it isn’t grounds for judging one’s way of relating or its constancy.
