Is it still closed in the later stage of the墓大运?
In the twelve zodiac stages, the墓大运 symbolizes the storage of energy, like a seed buried in frozen soil. Whether to close oneself in the later stage depends on the age stage and the eight characters (Bāzì) configuration:Youth period (18-35 years old): During the墓运, it's easy to trigger the potential for "breaking through the situation." For example, a designer at 28 years old was repeatedly rejected by clients during the墓运, seemingly stuck in a bottleneck, but unexpectedly created a new design style by studying traditional culture. According to divination, the "closure" during youth's墓运 is actually the prelude to mental upgrading, like a silkworm spinning a cocoon, requiring active breakthroughs to emerge as a butterfly. This phase of closure is usually a temporary adjustment, which can be broken through by cross-learning (such as a programmer learning painting).
Middle-aged period (36-55 years old): Traditional divination says "middle-aged encounter with the storehouse, reversal and repetition," because this stage should be the golden period of career. If it falls into the late stage of the墓运, there may be job burnout or social alienation. For example, a mid-level manager in a company gradually reduced team collaboration and became addicted to individual projects at 45, leading to declining performance. This tendency of closure comes from a sense of helplessness toward the current situation and needs to be addressed by participating in industry forums or public welfare activities (such as joining volunteer teams) to rebuild social connections.
Older period (after 56 years old): The closure in the late stage of the墓运 is often a natural choice. For instance, a retired teacher closed his calligraphy studio at 62 and focused on family life, which brought inner peace. Divination believes that the "closure" in the older stage of the墓运 is a manifestation of energy returning to the family. It can be realized through intergenerational interaction (such as teaching grandchildren calligraphy), avoiding loneliness.
The Three Most Important Challenges in the墓库运
The challenges of the墓库运 are essentially the "three dilemmas" caused by energy storage, which require breaking through from psychological, interpersonal, and health perspectives:1. Psychological Dilemma: The Invisibility of Efforts
The墓库运 often leads to a sense of frustration like "five years wasted." For example, an entrepreneur failed to gain market recognition for three products during the墓运, but later found that these attempts laid the technical foundation for future success. This "hidden accumulation" requires one to learn delayed gratification, and one can maintain motivation by keeping a "process achievement list" (recording new skills learned each week).
2. Interpersonal Dilemma: The Pain of Energy Adjustment
The墓库运 may cause family conflicts or workplace disputes. For example, an employee was criticized by colleagues due to work mistakes during the墓运, but later found that it was a chance for the team to reposition itself. The key to dealing with this is "retreating to advance," such as taking on cross-departmental collaborative projects to resolve misunderstandings through action.
3. Health Dilemma: A Warning Signal of Five Elements Imbalance
The墓库运 corresponds to the freezing of five elements' energy, making certain diseases more likely. For example, when a person with a Wood element (Mù) is in the墓运 (Mù Yùn) (the Earth element - Wèi Tǔ is the storehouse of Wood), they need to be cautious about liver and gallbladder issues (such as chronic hepatitis). One can balance the five elements through dietary therapy (such as eating more green vegetables) and exercise (such as Baduanjin), while regularly undergoing check-ups (focusing on the organs corresponding to the storehouse).
Q: How to determine whether the closure in the later stage of the墓运 is auspicious or ominous?
A: The key is whether "closure" is accompanied by growth. If after reducing meaningless socializing, one begins to focus on professional development (such as a lawyer transitioning to legal writing), it is a good omen; if one continues to refuse new things and feels down, one should activate energy by attending interest classes (such as photography courses). For example, an accountant closed his part-time accounting business during the墓运 and focused on certification, eventually being promoted to financial supervisor—this is a positive case of "active closure."
Q: Is it suitable to invest during the墓库运?
A: During the墓库运, the liquidity of funds is poor, and the "three non-principles" should be followed: do not invest in high-risk projects, do not expand production scale, and do not borrow easily. Funds can be used for self-improvement (such as attending industry training) or purchasing stable financial products. For example, an investor converted stock funds into regular fund investments during the墓运, avoiding risks and accumulating capital for future layout.
