The red comes from 丁, a candle. Small flame, long night — you're the one who keeps it lit. The rabbit (卯): gentle and perceptive — you read a room in a second. Cancer is water: your strength goes into guarding your people and your place.

When the Red Rabbit fights

When you fightYou drop hints instead of saying it.Saying it straight might hurt them, so you leave signs and wait to be noticed.

How you're misreadPeople ask why you're suddenly upset.It isn't sudden. You sent signals more than once — they just weren't seen.

Your strength in a conflictYou read hearts first.You notice the hurt someone hasn't been able to say.

What Cancer addsYou go into your shell.Cancer water makes your heart bruise more easily. Before you hide: "I'm hurt."

One small stepNot a hint — a sentence: "That hurt me."
