The red comes from 丙, the sun. When you walk in, the room gets warmer. The rat (子): quick and alert — you always find a way through. Libra is air: you weigh things up and think about the people around you first.

When the Red Rat fights

When you fightBright outside, busy inside.You smile so the mood doesn't break, but your mind is already worrying in ten directions.

How you're misreadPeople think nothing's wrong.The bright face is kindness. It doesn't mean you're fine.

Your strength in a conflictYou bring the warmth back.You make a frozen room warm again.

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

One small stepBefore you laugh it off, name your real feeling in one word.
