Dog in 2027: Punishment and Destruction with Tai Sui

Dog in 2027: Punishment and Destruction with Tai Sui

The Dog and Tai Sui in 2027

Tai Sui sits in Wei this year, and the Dog's birth-year branch is Xu. Xu and Wei punish each other — a Punishment with Tai Sui — and they also destroy each other — a Destruction with Tai Sui.

Dog birth years: 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006 and 2018 (counting from the Start of Spring).

How tradition sees Punishment and Destruction

A punishment means friction and entanglement, traditionally linked with disputes, inner conflict, friction with people and emotional strain, and a reminder to look after your health.

A destruction means wear and loss, traditionally linked with financial loss, broken relationships, interrupted plans and damaged belongings.

The two concern different kinds of trouble, so together they are a double reminder — and both are listed.
