Canopy Rebellion

An image of clashing with superiors and mentors: proposals suppressed, credit overshadowed, and rank-and-file suggestions mostly rebuffed; those already in high positions can instead use the moment to assert authority. Work by the book and through channels — never report over heads or contradict the powerful in public.

With water and fire at war, finances swing sharply — investments open high and slide, with last-minute reversals. Avoid adding positions in fire-natured sectors like energy and electronics; cash is king, watching beats acting, and settlements with upstream suppliers deserve especially close attention.

Two temperaments collide — one cold, one hot — with frequent quarrels and clear signs of elder disapproval. Confessions and proposals made now tend to meet cold water; better for each side to step back and let things cool, returning to the question of the relationship once the clash of water and fire subsides.

Ailments tend toward the cardiovascular system, the eyes, and blood pressure, with cold and heat contending and symptoms relapsing. Never stop or switch medication on your own or chase folk remedies; see a doctor promptly to bring the numbers under control, keep emotions level, and guard against sudden attacks — especially at night.

Journeys meet sudden upsets: guard against scalds and water hazards alike, and expect delays and rebookings of flights and trains. Postpone important trips if possible; if you must go, keep the itinerary simple, carry few valuables, and steer clear of thunderstorm peaks.

Contending with superiors, one's own school, or regulators is most unfavorable — odds low, costs high. Put away the combative posture and go through proper channels of appeal and hearing; when the other side holds high office, never clash head-on — forbearance now is what averts disaster.
