A plain-language theme note for the Rooster in the Fire Goat year — grounded in the classical relationship no classical combination with wei, and read as pacing, not prophecy.
The Rooster and Wei have no classical pairing, leaving the year open. The fit with a Goat-year emphasis is better than it looks: the Rooster\u2019s precision — exact standards, exact timing — is exactly what slow, tending work needs to not become vague. A year of depth gives exactness somewhere worthwhile to be applied.
Apply your standards to one long project rather than many short ones. Depth is the year\u2019s currency.
Which of my standards, applied consistently for a year, would compound into mastery?
