Goat
Wei Goat
Yin Earth
South-Southwest · Kun Palace
The Goat makes a room kinder: art, comfort, and a dislike of slammed doors. Folk animals turn at Chinese New Year (Spring Festival); BaZi years turn at Li Chun (Start of Spring). A winter birthday can wear a Goat hat and a different year pillar. That is not an error in the dinner toast — it is a reminder to cast the four pillars, hour included.
