The Dragon and the Sheep have no special pull or friction, so the stem of your birth year shapes 2027 more than your animal sign does.
The Yin Fire of 2027 heats Yang Metal (庚), the stem of your birth year. Pressure from evaluation and responsibility rises, and you come out of it tougher.
| Jan | 1/5 ~ 2/3 · 辛丑Careful The Ox month breaks with the Dragon. Plans and promises change easily. It is still before the start of spring, so in saju this month belongs to the end of 2026. |
| Feb | 2/4 ~ 3/5 · 壬寅Smooth The Tiger month shares a season with the Dragon. Strength builds, and so does what you are asked to carry. |
| Mar | 3/6 ~ 4/4 · 癸卯Mixed The Rabbit month both helps and rubs against the Dragon (seasonal harmony and harm). Strength builds, but check words and promises twice. |
| Apr | 4/5 ~ 5/5 · 甲辰Careful Your own sign's month, but the Dragon meeting itself counts as a self-punishment in saju. Strength builds, and so does the urge to push yourself too hard. Set your rest days first. |
| May | 5/6 ~ 6/5 · 乙巳Steady The Snake month has no special pull or friction with the Dragon. A calm month. |
| Jun | 6/6 ~ 7/6 · 丙午Steady The Horse month has no special pull or friction with the Dragon. A calm month. |
| Jul | 7/7 ~ 8/7 · 丁未Steady The Sheep month has no special pull or friction with the Dragon. A calm month. |
| Aug | 8/8 ~ 9/7 · 戊申Smooth The Monkey month pulls the same way as the Dragon. Good for starting things and finding partners. |
| Sep | 9/8 ~ 10/7 · 己酉Smooth The Rooster month pairs with the Dragon. Things between people soften, so meetings and negotiations go well. |
| Oct | 10/8 ~ 11/7 · 庚戌Careful The Dog month clashes head-on with the Dragon. Change one big thing at a time. |
| Nov | 11/8 ~ 12/6 · 辛亥Careful The Pig month holds a resentment toward the Dragon. Hurt feelings pile up more than open fights. |
| Dec | 12/7 ~ 1/5 · 壬子Smooth The Rat month pulls the same way as the Dragon. Good for starting things and finding partners. |
A 庚辰 day pillar is rock and iron (庚) sitting on damp spring earth (辰). The energy below feeds the one above, giving a talent for taking things in and growing them.
2027 is not a samjae year for you. Samjae is the three-year stretch of caution that comes round every twelve years in Korean saju, and the Dragon's next one begins in 2034.
In saju the year does not change on January 1. It changes at Ipchun, the start of spring, around February 4 each year. So anyone born between January 1 and that day takes the previous year's pillar and animal sign.
Pressure makes you tougher, and your sign brings no sharp turns. Smooth months: Feb, Aug, Sep, Dec. Months to watch: Jan, Apr, Oct, Nov.
Your sign is set by the year you were born, your day pillar by the day. Everyone born in the same year shares a sign, but the day pillar changes daily, so it differs even among people born the same year. That is why the sign is used for the flow of a year and the day pillar for your nature.
