The golden comes from 己, a garden. You make things grow quietly — plants, people, plans. The rooster (酉): precise and honest — sometimes too honest. Aries is the sign of beginnings: you move first, and waiting wears you out.

When the Golden Rooster fights

When you fightYou go through it point by point.Like weeding a field, you pick out what went wrong, one by one.

How you're misreadPeople say you nag.It isn't nagging. You don't want to fight about the same thing again.

Your strength in a conflictYou tidy up after.When the fight is over, you quietly sort out what's left.

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

One small stepOut of ten points, say three.
