1.What 辛卯 means
辛卯 combines the heavenly stem 辛 (Kanoto) with the earthly branch 卯 (U). 辛 is likened to jewels and precious metal, and 卯 to the rabbit.
The stem on top (Metal) restrains the branch below (Wood), a controlling pairing. The power to take charge and keep things under control shows strongly.
2.Nacchin: Pine and Cypress Wood
The nacchin (納音, “sound element”) of 辛卯 is Pine and Cypress Wood. Pines and cypresses that stay green all winter: integrity and long life. The nacchin describes the essence of a birth-year eto; read more in the sixty eto and nacchin.
3.Personality when your day pillar is 辛卯
In Four Pillars astrology, the eto of your birth day (the day pillar) stands for you and for your marriage. You have refined taste and natural grace. Sensitive and clear-thinking, you take pride in finishing things carefully.
The day branch (卯) shows your inner self, your private face and your bond with a spouse. Inside you carry the nature of the Rabbit: Light on its feet like a hopping rabbit, the Rabbit is gentle and mild, and a symbol of leaping forward.
On the other hand: You are easily hurt and sensitive to criticism. A perfectionist, you can be hard on yourself and others.
4.Born in a 辛卯 year
If your year pillar is 辛卯, you are said to inherit the qualities of jewels and precious metal and of the Rabbit in your social role and family character. For the personality of your birth animal, see Year of the Rabbit.
