The golden comes from 己, a garden. You make things grow quietly — plants, people, plans. The rooster (酉): precise and honest — sometimes too honest. Capricorn is earth: once you set a goal, you climb it one step at a time.

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 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 stepOut of ten points, say three.
