🔍 1. What is Hae (害)?
Hae (害) occurs when two Earthly Branches (Ji-Ji) form a Yuk-Hap (六合) relationship, but another Branch interferes with the harmony between them. It refers to the disruption or distortion of that union, causing psychological or emotional imbalance.
It often brings a sense of instability, interpersonal discord, and emotional friction.
Psychologically, Hae (害) can represent inner conflict, tension, and sensitivity. However, it can also serve as a catalyst that breaks habitual patterns and ushers in a new perspective.
