Xin WeiXīn MetalWèi — GoatNayin: Roadside Earth

What Xin Wei is

A worked jewel still covered by earth. The ground both feeds it and hides it: the value is real, the being-seen is a matter of timing.

Its image: Roadside Earth

The ground beside a road: everyone walks on it, few notice it, and the road needs it.

In the sixty-pillar cycle each image is shared by exactly two pillars. 辛未 shares Roadside Earth with 庚午, though the two differ in polarity, animal and hidden stems.

The stem: Xīn Metal

Xīn carries the image of worked metal — jade, a finished jewel. That is this pillar's baseline; the branch it is paired with decides the rest.

The branch: Wèi, the Goat

Wèi is Earth, yin in polarity, and carries the Goat.

Hidden stems: every branch conceals stems of its own, in descending weight — Jǐ Earth (60%), Dīng Fire (30%), Yǐ Wood (10%).

How stem and branch relate

the branch feeds the stem (Resource)

The ground under this pillar nourishes it. People with it rarely run empty — and can stay comfortable longer than is good for them.

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.
