The red comes from 丙, the sun. When you walk in, the room gets warmer. The dog (戌): loyal and protective — your people are safe with you. Libra is air: you weigh things up and think about the people around you first.

When the Red Dog fights

When you fightYou hold it for ages, then it all bursts.While you're giving, you say nothing — until it isn't noticed.

How you're misreadPeople say you explode out of nowhere.It's not out of nowhere. It's the end of a long time trying alone.

Your strength in a conflictYou protect with loyalty.Even after a fight, you're still on their side.

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

One small stepWhile the hurt is small, say it right away.
