戊戌 Day Pillar · Wu · Dog

Dry late-autumn soil, thick over thick.

Stem Wu (戊) · Branch Dog (戌)

Wu (戊) is yang Earth, which the Dichten Sui calls firm and heavy (戊土固重), and Xu (戌) is the Earth of late autumn (季秋). With Earth in both stem and branch, it reads as dry autumn soil packing thick.

How to read this pairing

Jeombaksa reads this as dry autumn soil packing thick. 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

• Earth overlaps thick
• As dry late-autumn soil, it can be mapped to packing firm
• Gathered into one element, the grain reads thick

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.
