A big week on the calendar

  • Until February 3: the 辛丑 (Xin-chou) month of the Fire Horse year.
  • February 4: Spring Commences (立春, Lichun). The BaZi year turns to 丁未 (Ding-wei), and the 壬寅 (Ren-yin) month begins.
  • February 6: Lunar New Year, the popular start of the Year of the Goat.

People born on February 4 or 5 fall into different years depending on which count is used. A BaZi calculator works from the solar date.

Harmony on two levels

The Pig starts 2027 with good company in both the year and the month.

At the year level, the Goat branch 未 (Wei) and the Pig branch 亥 (Hai) belong to the same three-harmony trio, 亥卯未 (Hai-Mao-Wei). The reference reading describes the Pig as in harmony with the Tai Sui, a year suited to working with others.

At the month level, the Tiger branch 寅 (Yin) pairs with the Pig in 寅亥 (Yin-Hai), one of the six 六合 (liu he, six harmonies) combinations. So the very first month of the Goat year brings a one-to-one bond.

Water feeding wood

The elements fit the picture. The stem 壬 (Ren) is water, like the Pig. The branch 寅 (Yin) is wood, and water produces wood. The Pig gives energy to the month’s branch, in the way a stream waters a young tree.

A giving month inside a harmony pair is a classic image of generosity that is welcomed. It is also a month that spends some of the Pig’s energy.

Focus for the month

  1. Begin one partnership. A study buddy, a joint project, a shared New Year plan.
  2. Join a New Year gathering. A meal or a call with family suits the harmony theme.
  3. Note where your time goes. Water feeding wood can quietly use up evenings.

One thing to go easy on

Promising more than you can give. A six-harmony month makes saying yes feel natural. Offer what you can sustain into March, when the trio theme deepens.
