Today is the 13th of June. It is a yin earth pig day. The pig is yang water. Yin earth would like to control yang water but really just lets it run through the sand.

The chart looks like this:

• year: yin metal rabbit (wood)
• month: yang wood horse (fire)
• day: yin earth pig (water)

The emperor is yin earth. The emperor would like to make a union with the yang wood sitting next to it. The season is with their union and it is supported by the horse.

The weakest element today is yin water. It governs the kidney qi which in turn is responsible for fear. What is sitting underneath those feeling of anxiety and disquiet. Engage them fully and, if you need to, take a thread into the cave of the minotaur then phone a friend.

(Ariadne, the daughter of Minos, fell in love with Theseus and helped him navigate the labyrinth. In most accounts she gave him a ball of thread, allowing him to retrace his path. Theseus killed the Minotaur with the sword of Aegeus and led the other Athenians back out of the labyrinth).
