Chinese astrological I Ching reading: 4/21/18

4/21 is the day of Water Sheep in the lunar month of Fire Dragon. This is a clashing combination.
This day is designated as inauspicious and balance. It is unsuitable for all major activities.
In a balance day parties in an agreement must be perfectly equal and balanced for there to be a good outcome, all the more so in an inauspicious day.
The lunar mansion is Nu, Weaving Maiden. This is better for private rather than public activities. It is good for literary pursuits.
If you were born in a year or day of Pig, Rabbit, or Sheep, this is a good day for creative work.
Sheep, the sign of the day, is in harmony with Sheep, Pig, Rabbit, Snake, and Horse; neutral with Monkey, Rooster, Tiger, and Dragon; clashes with Dog, and Ox; and is ambivalent with Rat.
The I Ching hexagram for this day, using the King Wen method, is number 23, line 5.

Hexagram 23 is Bao, Cleaving. No movement in any direction is advantage.

Line 5 A school of fish. Favored by court ladies. Everything is favorable. The zodiac sign of line 5 is Rat. By the element of the day, Rat is weak. By the element of the hexagram, Rat signifies development of creative interests. Rat clashes with the signs of changing line, 4, is ambivalent with the sign of the day, and is in harmony with the sign of the month. The sequence of elements says this is a time of wasted effort; it is good to meditate. The Water of Water Sheep day puts a snake in line 5. Be aware of details.
