The blue comes from 甲, a tall tree. You grow straight up, even when no one is watching. The monkey (申): clever and adaptable — you can fix almost anything. Libra is air: you weigh things up and think about the people around you first.

When the Blue Monkey fights

When you fightYou defend fast when cornered.Under pressure, reasons and explanations come out quickly.

How you're misreadPeople say you always have an excuse.You want to explain, not escape.

Your strength in a conflictYou read the situation fast.You're the first to see where the argument got tangled.

What Libra addsYou'd rather avoid the fight altogether.Libra air makes you quick to please. Choose honesty over peace, once.

One small stepBefore explaining: "Yes — I'm sorry about that part."
