What kind of year is 2027, the 丁未 year?
2027 is the year of 丁未, a year of the Goat. In Korean saju (Four Pillars astrology) each year has two characters: the top one, 丁, is a candle or lamp (yin fire); the bottom one, 未, is Goat · earth · late summer (about July). The fire above feeds the earth below, so the year's energy flows gently downwards.
2027 for the Goat
2027 is the Goat's own year. The year's energy matches yours: a good year to look back and firm up your footing.
By the twelve spirits (12신살, a Korean set of nicknames read from your animal), 2027's 未 is the Canopy (solitude, art, faith, study) for the Goat. Good for study on your own and building inner strength.
The Goat and the three troubled years (삼재)
In Korean tradition, each animal meets three troubled years (삼재) every twelve: the year they come in (들삼재), the year they stay (눌삼재) and the year they leave (날삼재). For the Goat, 2027 is the year they leave (날삼재). It is the last of the three. It is an old call to be careful, not a promise of bad luck: just think big decisions through twice.
Before you read an animal's year
Your animal is only one of the eight characters of a saju chart: the bottom character of your birth year. People of the same animal meet the same year very differently depending on their birth month, day and hour, and a reading actually starts from the top character of your birth day. Take the animal's year as the general mood; for your own year, get a reading from your birth date and time.
The zodiac year turns at Ipchun (about 4 February), not on 1 January or the Lunar New Year: if you were born in January or early February, you may belong to the previous animal.
