1/5–2/4: Attend to the sentiments of your spouse or lover or a tragic misunderstanding will occur.  Be careful of sharp weapons.  You are prone to injury. 

2/4-3/5: Beginnings are unfavorable.  Don’t risk an investment.  More haste, less speed. 

3/5-4/4: You’re prone to injury.  Drive defensively and don’t drive when fatigued. 

4/4-5/5: Don’t be overenthusiastic or impatient.  A fine start with a poor finish will lose you an opportunity.  Be sure of what you seek. 

5/5-6/5: Be careful, especially in traffic or any place you could be hurt from a fall or collision.  Get lots of rest.  Treat constipation immediately.  Keep your mind on good thoughts. 

6/5 –7/7: It’s always the other mountain that looks higher.  Too many choices will perplex you.  Instead, face reality and act. 

7/7– 8/7: It’s easy to sink into isolation.  Don’t appear too supercilious.  Don’t outright despise others.  Expressing more goodwill will improve your prospects.
