庚 · Geng · Yang Metal
A 庚 (Geng) Day Master means the heavenly stem of your birth day is 庚: Yang Metal, whose image is raw metal and the axe. Geng Metal is raw ore and the axe: upright, decisive, loyal; also quick to cut others and yourself.
You need fire to be forged, not more collisions. The lesson is: shape before sharpness.
Lines from the classics for this Day Master
What is to be gathered must first be spread; what is to be weakened must first be made strong. The soft and yielding overcome the hard and strong.
— 《道德经》第三十六章
The living are soft and yielding; the dead are stiff and hard. Living plants are tender; dead ones are dry and brittle. Thus the hard and stiff are companions of death; the soft and yielding are companions of life.
— 《道德经》第七十六章
Nothing in the world is softer and weaker than water, yet nothing surpasses it in attacking the hard and strong, for nothing can take its place.
— 《道德经》第七十八章
