Basic qualities of the 乙丑 type
Picture flowers and grasses beneath frozen ground, sensing spring while patiently protecting their shoots. The image is gentle and reserved, with persistence that can meet difficult conditions. It suggests a practical outlook and a wish to bring steady effort to fruition. There may also be a quiet kindness that finds it hard to pass by someone in need.
Love and marriage
You may prefer to draw closer carefully over time. Once your heart opens, sincerity can continue for a long while. Your own feelings deserve a place too, especially when caring for someone begins to take more energy than you have.

Work and talents

Ideas for your next step
Being good at enduring things can also mean storing too much inside. Small, regular treats can be a way to offer yourself a little warmth.

The Branch's hidden stems in relation to the Day Stem are Indirect Wealth (resources) (Social connection and circulating resources), and the twelve-stage phase is Waning: Shuai phase (The calm perspective of someone who can draw on experience to see the whole).
