Hidden harm from the General
A harming branch quietly undermines your year seat - the classic 'small people' year. Hai is harm that arrives sideways: the acquaintance who over-promises, the deal that is quietly unfavorable, the trust extended too easily. This is a year for verified references, written agreements, and a healthy distance from other people's urgency.
What the tradition prescribes
- ◆Enroll in the annual 安太歲 (Pacify Taisui) ritual held in the first lunar month - the classical first response to any clash year.
- ◆Carry a consecrated Taisui talisman charged for 2026, and for Ben Ming Nian, the tradition of wearing red holds.
- ◆Give thanks to the General in the eleventh lunar month - the closing half of the rite most people forget.
- ◆Do good quietly: charity, volunteering, and donating blood are the classical ways to soften a clash year.
- ◆Verify before you trust this year: written agreements over handshakes, references over referrals.
