1 — White Water 一白水星
You adapt to any vessel yet never lose your direction. You move deep and quietly; your strength is patience and hearing what others miss.
Nine Star Ki divides people into nine stars by birth year and into five elements. One thing is got wrong more than anything else: the year does not begin on 1 January but around 4 February — anyone born in January still belongs to the previous year.

You adapt to any vessel yet never lose your direction. You move deep and quietly; your strength is patience and hearing what others miss.
You nourish and carry. Your value is not in standing in front but in holding the whole together — slowly, thoroughly, dependably.
Thunder in spring — beginning, voice, sudden forward motion. You arrive with ideas and energy; finishing them is your lesson.
Wind — you penetrate everywhere and connect people. Your diplomacy opens doors force cannot; beware of scattering in too many directions.
The centre of the compass — everything turns around you, even when you did not ask for it. You carry extremes: great creative and great demolishing force, and you must choose.
Heaven — order, responsibility, natural authority. You keep your word and expect the same; the hardness you aim at yourself can go too far.
The lake — joy, speech, pleasure in company. You can talk and connect; depth arrives when you stop fearing silence.
The mountain — stillness, accumulation, transformation in silence. You change in leaps after long motionless stretches; your endurance outlasts what breaks others.
Fire — visibility, insight, beauty. You illuminate what was hidden and burn fast; you need fuel, and moments when you shine for no one.
