Jeong-Hae (丁亥) day pillar — meaning in Korean Saju
A candle flame beside a deep winter lake.
Jeong-Hae (丁亥) is the day pillar of Yin Fire — The Candle — sitting on the Pig. Element mix: Fire (丁) + Water (亥).
Your core: Yin Fire · The Candle
You don't light up a stadium — you light up a person. Deep, perceptive and loyal, you see what others miss. Your challenge: your mind keeps burning long after the night is over.
What you sit on: the Pig
Pig (亥) under you is wide water: generous, open-hearted and imaginative. Pig is a 'traveling horse' branch — you are happiest with freedom and a partner who gives you room.
How they mix
The branch beneath you controls your stem: you grew up with pressure or responsibility, and it made you disciplined. You respect rules and status — just don't let pressure become your whole identity.
★ Traveling Horse (驛馬) branch: movement, travel and change. You do well abroad, on the road or with a job that moves.
