The original verse and its meaning
- 靑龍朝天 雲行雨施
The blue dragon turns toward heaven, so the clouds move and the rain falls. - 金盤堆果 花榻設宴
Fruit piles up on a golden platter, and a feast is laid out on a flowered couch. - 淺水行舟 外虛內實
You float a boat on shallow water; outwardly it looks empty, but inside it is full. - 雲外萬里 順風駕帆
Beyond the clouds, on a road of ten thousand li, you set sail with a fair wind.
The verses follow the public-domain Tojeong Bigyeol held by the National Library of Korea; the meanings are Luna Alley's own retelling.
The year ahead
This is a year when your energy rises greatly. It's abundant, like fruit piled on a golden tray and a feast laid out on a bed of flowers. Like a boat floating on shallow water, things may look empty on the surface but are full inside, and you'll go far, like a sail catching a fair wind.
This is a year when energy rises greatly and blocked things open up. The first verse, about the blue dragon turning toward heaven and summoning clouds and rain, speaks of a big flow where your efforts moisten those around you too. As in the verse about fruit piling up on a golden platter and a feast laid out on a flowered couch, your household grows plentiful and there are many occasions to share joy with people. Like a boat floated on shallow water, it may look like nothing much outside but it's full inside, so trust your substance over others' eyes. Like the boat sailing with a fair wind in the last verse, the farther you go, the more the road opens, so outside activities and travel pay off. The fourth through sixth months, and the tenth, are especially bright. But in the twelfth month, ventures planned with others may come to nothing, so wrap up the year quietly. If you fill up your substance without getting carried away, you'll enjoy great blessings for a long time.
A word from Master Tojeong
“The dragon rises to heaven, so it is a year when clouds and rain follow. Fill your substance and ride the fair wind; only at year's end, do not lend your heart to others' schemes.”

Who gets this hexagram?
The hexagram depends on your lunar birth date and the year being read. The upper number comes from your Korean age that year plus the year's taese number, the middle from the length and month number of your birth month that year, and the lower from your birth day plus the day number. So the same person gets a different hexagram each year.
For example, someone born on lunar 2/2/1988 receives this hexagram in 2027.
