The picture
Gi-Myo is soft earth with plants pushing through it. The Rabbit’s Wood controls Yin Earth with nothing in between, so this pillar is always being asked for something. It is tactful, hard-working and good at tending things: people, gardens, details. The demand comes from close by, often from home or a partner. Gi-Myo is more resilient than it appears, and more tired.
What the pillar is made of
| Part | In Gi-Myo |
|---|---|
| Day Master | 己 Gi, Yin Earth |
| Day branch | 卯 Myo, the Rabbit |
| Hidden stems | 乙 Eul: Seven Killings |
| Life stage | Sickness 病 |
| Void branches | 申 Sin (Monkey), 酉 Yu (Rooster) |
| Stars it carries | Seven Killings, Hyeonchim |
The Day Master sits on the element that controls it, in the same polarity. Pressure is built into the seat: this pillar is used to being tested and often has a strong-willed partner. Readers look for something in the chart that handles the pressure, an Eating God or a Resource.
These are the facts every Gi-Myo chart shares, whatever the other three pillars hold. They are taken from the same engine that calculates your chart.
