The sword laid on the altar: metal in service of principle. 庚戌 fights for things — justice, family, code — and its edge is only ever pointed at what deserves it.
The stem: Geng is raw metal that improves in the forge. Direct, just, energized by adversity — it cuts through ambiguity and says the thing everyone is thinking.
You sit on unconventional nourishment — your mind feeds from side doors: intuition, odd disciplines, patterns others dismiss. You know things before you can explain them, and solitude is where you digest.

Hidden stems of 戌 and their relationship to your 庚 Day Master.
A sword on the altar: stern, upright features with a ceremonial gravity — the look of sworn duty.
The Geng base — strong bone structure, square jaw, direct eye contact and a voice that carries — shaded by the Dog: a solid, dependable look that people instinctively trust. Traditional physiognomy; enjoy as folklore, not science.
Temperament note: guardian loyalty — you keep the gate, keep the faith, and keep receipts.
You need more privacy than most partners expect, and you attach deeply to the few who don't take that personally. Being alone together is your ideal intimacy.
Niche mastery is your path: specialized medicine, esoteric tech, analytics, occult and healing arts, archives. The stranger the field, the more at home you are.
