The original verse and its meaning
- 萬里長空 日月明朗
In the vast sky of ten thousand li, the sun and moon float bright and radiant. - 雲散太空 星陣北極
In the great sky cleared of clouds, the stars array themselves around the North Star. - 破屋重修 衣食羊開
You repair the crumbling house again, and food and clothing open up in plenty. - 晩節寒松 只有生光
In the late season, the cold pine alone gives off its green.
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 both your heart and your road ahead are bright. People gather around you, as stars circle the North Star once the clouds clear. You repair a crumbling house and have plenty to eat and wear, and you shine alone like a pine in the late season.
This is a year when both your heart and the road ahead are bright. The sun and moon floating in a ten-thousand-li sky in the first line mean there's light to guide you by day and by night. Whatever you do, you can walk on without losing your direction. The clouds clearing and stars surrounding the North Star in the second line are an energy of people gathering around you. You can win trust and stand in a leading position. Repairing the crumbling house in the third line means rebuilding a household or relationships that had collapsed, and thanks to that, food and clothing become plentiful. The cold pine of late autumn in the last line symbolizes staying green alone even when others wither. Blessings that bloom late last long, so don't be impatient. If you steady your words and heart for just the seventh lunar month, it's a year when blessings grow richer toward year's end.
A word from Master Tojeong
“When the clouds lift, the stars find their places. If you keep your center, people will gather of their own accord. Stand green to the end, like the pine of late autumn.”

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 3/1/1991 receives this hexagram in 2027.
