White Tiger Strikes
Heaven-plate Xin over earth-plate Geng: the White Tiger rides Tai Bai's momentum and throws its whole weight forward, two metals joined in slaughter. Blades cross and host and guest maim each other; yielding preserves you whole, pressing forward draws blood — a quarrel to be dodged, not met.

Workplace conflict turns white-hot — the image is open war with a rival or a superior, and butting heads wounds both sides. In contests for posts or bids you face a powerful enemy, and a fight to the finish costs dearly. Step back to preserve strength; concede the small prize in front of you and slip the frontal blade.
Wealth-seeking meets cutthroat rivalry: peers slashing prices and fighting over clients until the last of the margin is gone and everyone is weakened. Start no price wars this period and raid no rival's core ground. Hold your base, trade a little profit for peace — that, in fact, is how the loss stops.
Quarrels turn fierce: words wound like crossing blades, and if neither yields the bond takes heavy damage; there is also an image of open battle over a third party. A cooling-off period matters more than winning the argument — separate physically first, let tempers fall, then sort right from wrong.
Points to blade injuries, wounds from fights, and surgical risk, corresponding to the lungs, large intestine, sinews and bones. Keep away from scenes of altercation this period lest stray harm catch you. Move elective surgery to a date outside this pattern; for emergency surgery, choose the most experienced operating team available.
Steer around conflict and dangerous ground: districts with poor security, late-night streets, and crowd standoffs are all to be skipped. On the road, avoid duels of road rage; if a quarrel starts, back off at once or call the police — never indulge a moment's temper. Choose even-tempered companions for group travel.
Host and guest maiming each other is this pattern's direct verdict on litigation: both sides fight blind, the case becomes a war of attrition, and even the winner wins bleeding. Yielding ground remains possible — settling early to stop the loss beats a judgment that ruins both. If the other side comes looking for a fight, answer motion with stillness; do not fight fire with fire.
