The black comes from 壬, the ocean. Big mind, restless current — you need room to move. The dog (戌): loyal and protective — your people are safe with you. Gemini is air: curious and quick, you open doors with words.
When the Black Dog fights
When you fightYou press it down, until the dam breaks.Like water behind a dam: the bigger the patience, the bigger the break.
How you're misreadPeople say you suddenly turn.The dam you held for so long reached its limit.
Your strength in a conflictYou keep deep loyalty.Even after a fight, you guard their secrets and their place.
What Gemini addsYou talk your way around it.Gemini air speeds up your words. Not the winning word — the one that reaches them.
One small stepAs the dam fills, let a little water out at a time.
