Green Dragon Returns

Job applications, performance reviews, and open competitions are all well timed — taking the initiative beats waiting, and recognition from above, even out-of-turn promotion, is possible. It suits launching major projects and stepping forward to claim resources; only when the pattern meets the tomb or door oppression should you sheathe the ambition and advance step by step.

Wealth runs strong through both regular and windfall channels: investments, new openings, and expansion can proceed boldly, and large partnerships are within reach. Wu is capital and Bing is visibility — money paired with publicity yields the most; only in a palace under emptiness should you guard against gains slipping away at the last moment.

Romance is highly favored: singles do well to confess outright or ask for an introduction, and couples find the path to marriage opens naturally. The pattern rewards open, above-board courtship — the more candid, the smoother; if an inauspicious door shares the palace, watch for quarrels over lavish spending in the heat of romance.

Health trends firmly upward: chronic sufferers meet capable doctors and effective prescriptions, and this is a good pattern under which to schedule surgery. Rising wood-fire qi lifts the mood and pulls the constitution up with it; those prone to yin deficiency and internal heat should watch for irritability and insomnia, and go easy on tonics.

Travel is greatly favored — long journeys, relocation, and overseas postings can all go ahead, with helpful people appearing along the way and things running smoother than planned. South and east are especially favorable directions; for a family move or a long-distance transfer, setting out when this pattern meets an auspicious door is the surest choice.

The initiating side holds the advantage: filing, appealing, and presenting evidence all favor moving first, and rulings tend to lean your way. Influential help is close at hand — a well-placed intermediary can broker terms; settling from this position of strength yields better terms than a war of attrition.
