The golden comes from 戊, a mountain. People lean on you. You rarely say you're tired. The dog (戌): loyal and protective — your people are safe with you. Aries is the sign of beginnings: you move first, and waiting wears you out.

When the Golden Dog fights

When you fightYou build a wall and go inside.When there's a fight, you close the gate and think it through alone.

How you're misreadPeople say you shut them out.You're protecting, not pushing away.

Your strength in a conflictYou keep faith.A promise you made, you keep — even in the middle of a fight.

What Aries addsYou blow up fast, and forget fast.Aries fire makes you react fast. One breath before the first word.

One small stepEven if you close the gate: "I'll come out in a bit."
