Tomorrow is a Yi-Chou day. For the Rat it reads Steady.Zi is Water and opens the cycle. Rat people think fast and find openings in whatever is moving; the cost is starting more things than they finish.

Tomorrow against your year branch

Tomorrow's day branch forms a Six Harmony with your year branch — the smoothest of the twelve pairings. Ask what you have been meaning to ask, and see the person you have been meaning to see.

Your element generates the day's stem — an outward-spending day. Keep something in reserve.

Birth years

The animal year turns over at Lichun (around 4 February), not on 1 January — anyone born in January, or in early February before Lichun, belongs to the previous animal. The tool above handles this for you.

Zodiac compatibility

The Rat harmonises with the Ox, forms a Three Harmony with the Dragon and the Monkey, and clashes with the Horse. Harmony pairs take less effort; a clash pair is not doomed, it simply asks both sides to give ground.

The zodiac uses one character of the Four Pillars — the year branch, one of eight. Two people born in the same animal year can read very differently once month, day and hour come in. So this page gives an overall reading, not a breakdown.
