Frequently asked questions
What data is used for the monthly fortune for Monkey?
It begins with the month's pillar, the solar-term interval, and the new- and full-moon dates. Monkey's Gold element is then applied to divide the month into earlier and later stretches and mark turning points. A single day's pillar is not used here because a month is read as a sequence of intervals.
Is there a reason why luck at work is important to those born in the year of the Monkey?
Monkey's strengths are application and interpersonal coordination, and the workplace is where those abilities are best revealed. On days when work items are high, positions that require negotiation or coordination pay off well.
How is zodiac sign compatibility determined?
It is based on the triad and congruence of the zodiac. The monkey forms a triad with the rat and the dragon to create the hydrangea, and the monkey and the tiger form a triad. This is not arbitrarily determined, but is a basic relationship in Myeongnihak.
