Clear metal giving its energy to early-winter water.

Stem Xin (辛) · Branch Pig (亥)

Xin (辛) is yin Metal, which the Dichten Sui calls mild and clear (辛金軟弱, 溫潤而清), and Hai (亥) is the Water of early winter (孟冬). With metal giving rise to water (金生水), it reads as an Output (leaking) position where metal’s energy seeps into the branch’s water.

How to read this pairing

Jeombaksa reads this as clear metal giving its energy to early-winter water, metal flowing into water. 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

• Mild, clear yin metal (Xin) giving its energy to early-winter water (Hai)
• Metal giving rise to water (Output/leaking) — inner metal energy flows to the water outside
• Unlike a Resource place where the branch’s metal generates the stem’s water (壬申, Gui-You), here the stem’s metal gives to the branch’s water — a leaking place

A note of caution

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

Questions to ask yourself (work · relationships)

Work · When giving energy to water, how do you divide where to let flow and where to hold in?

Relationships · By what do you watch that clearly outflowing energy doesn’t thin you out in a relationship?
