The original verse and its meaning
- 萬里無雲 海天一碧
Not a single cloud in ten thousand li of sky, so sea and sky are one and the same blue. - 富春山下 伴壤老人
Like the old man who lives at the foot of Mount Fuchun with the soil as his friend, you are at leisure and at ease. - 魚游綠水 燕尋春巢
Fish play in the blue water, and swallows return seeking their spring nests. - 晩潮敵艇 棹歌一曲
At the evening tide you launch a small boat, and a boatman's song rings out.
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 heart opens wide and feels at peace. You're as unhurried as the old man beneath Mount Fuchun, and you find your place like fish in clear water and swallows seeking their spring nest. It's as leisurely as a boatman's song over the evening waves.
This is a year when your heart opens wide and is at peace, like a sky without a single cloud. The first verse's words that sea and sky are one color mean a clear energy without obstruction wraps around the year. The old man at the foot of Mount Fuchun in the second verse points to a generous heart that sets down greed and lives in friendship with nature, so this year the more you drop impatience, the bigger your blessings. The fish in blue water and the swallows seeking spring nests in the third verse are images of each finding its own place. You can meet the right work, the right people, and the right home and settle comfortably. The boatman's song on the evening waves in the last verse is the elegance of enjoying leisure after the day's end, so rest and pleasure are also this year's blessings. From spring wealth and income follow, in summer your clean name spreads far, and in autumn benefactors help from all directions. But at year's end be careful about losing things and check that you don't get caught up in falsehoods becoming truth. Keep a clear heart, and refreshing luck like the sea breeze will continue all year.
A word from Master Tojeong
“There is not a cloud in ten thousand li, so keep your heart that clear too. Lessen your greed like the old man of Mount Fuchun, and blessings shall come riding on a boatman's song.”

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 1/1/1987 receives this hexagram in 2027.
