The black comes from 癸, rain. Soft as rain, and just as hard to stop. The sheep (未): kind and artistic — you make life softer for others. Capricorn is earth: once you set a goal, you climb it one step at a time.

When the Black Sheep fights

When you fightWorry spills over first.More than the fight, "what happens to us now?" frightens you.

How you're misreadPeople say you're too sensitive.It's not sensitivity. It's how much you care about the bond.

Your strength in a conflictYou water dry ground.You pour gentle words onto a dry argument.

What Capricorn addsYou fold up the feeling and treat it like a task.Capricorn earth puts feelings on hold. One line of feeling before the fix.

One small stepWhen worry grows, ask: "Are we okay?"

癸未계미
