Gui Mao Day Pillar

Dew on new shoots: nourishment in very small amounts, continuously, never once interrupted.

Gold beaten to a leaf — beautiful, and far too thin to hold anything up.

In the sixty-pillar cycle each image is shared by exactly two pillars. 癸卯 shares Gold Leaf with 壬寅, though the two differ in polarity, animal and hidden stems.

Guǐ carries the image of rain, dew, a spring underground. That is this pillar's baseline; the branch it is paired with decides the rest.

Mǎo is Wood, yin in polarity, and carries the Rabbit.

Hidden stems: every branch conceals stems of its own, in descending weight — Yǐ Wood (100%).

the stem feeds the branch (Output)

This pillar spends itself outward — expressive, productive, better at making things than talking about them, and easier to drain.

Note: this reads the day pillar alone. A full chart has three more pillars plus the luck cycles, and the balance is only settled by all of them together.
