On December 7th, a Metal Dog, Open Day, we transitioned into a brand-new energetic cycle, the Wu Zi, Earth Rat Month and into “Great Snow,” the two-week gateway before the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere.
Yin energy is now rising to its peak: darkness, stillness, quiet, introspection. How ironic that this is when the holiday season becomes its busiest… and yet nature asks us to slow down the most.
This is your cosmic cue to pause, breathe, and soften.
✨ Listen when your body asks for rest
✨ Allow your spirit to drift, dream, and imagine
✨ Add a little Fire to keep your inner warmth alive — twinkling lights, warm soups and stews, time with people who truly nourish your heart
We’ve officially entered the prospering Qi of Water.Take a moment to reflect: What does Water represent in your BaZi chart?
The Earth Rat Month: A Mountain in the Fog
This month’s pillar — Yang Earth over the Yin Water (Rat) — brings the power and stillness of a vast mountain shrouded in fog… or, in the depth of midwinter, a blizzard.
Just like a trekker navigating a storm, vision becomes difficult. Paths are obscured. footing feels uncertain.This is the flavor of the month:
Events may unfold without warning
Things are happening behind the scenes
Not everything is visible yet
What’s real and what’s illusion may blur
The Earth Rat carries an air of mystery. Dramatic changes may be forming — but hidden out of view until they arrive right at your doorstep.
This is exactly the kind of energy that makes preparation and clarity essential — and why understanding the year ahead is more important than ever.
This Water month invites deep inner work and important lessons:
Water Lessons for the Month:
• Trust the flow
• Face the fear of the unknown
• Claim your freedom
• Strategy + “whatever it takes” energy
• Strengthen your vision
• Seek balance
• Surrender what you can’t control
• Listen to your intuition
• Lean into wisdom
This is a month where your “mountain” may be tested — but remember, mountains don’t crumble easily. They weather storms, hold their ground, and reveal their true shape when the fog clears.
Use this time to stabilize your foundation, refine your strategies, and tune in to the deeper wisdom rising from within.
Dear Horse, although you will be the Duke of the Year in 2026, you are the one being clashed this month. The clash depends what pillar the Horse is in and how it will affect you. Do take extra care this month. Unexpected changes and more movement. Again how it affects you personally depends on what pillar the Horse is in, in your Bazi Chart.
Nobleman is described as 'helpful people’ Nobleman is the most auspicious energy, bringing helpful people and valuable opportunities into your life. This month brings Nobleman to people born in the
• Day of Yin Wood, Yin Earth.
• Years ending in a 5 & 9
The energy of December is that of the master architect working behind sealed doors, of roots moving deep beneath the frozen ground. What is constructed-or dissolved-now happens out of sight, in the quiet places where true power gathers.
