Im (임) and Gyeong (경) Day Master Compatibility
One quietly fuels the other
Im (임) and Gyeong (경) are two of the ten Day Masters used in Saju (Four Pillars of Destiny) astrology. If your Day Master is one and a partner, friend, or coworker's is the other, here's what the traditional Five Element relationship between the two tends to look like.
Im (임) is traditionally described as the ocean — expansive, ambitious, and always moving — a broad thinker, resourceful, restless, hard to contain. Gyeong (경), by contrast, is traditionally read as the raw ore — decisive, dutiful, and unafraid of friction — a strong-willed doer with a sharp sense of justice.
Gyeong (경)'s element (Metal) is traditionally read as nourishing Im (임)'s element (Water) — the "generating" relationship in Five Element theory, the same cycle behind wood feeding fire or water nourishing wood.
This tendency is often read as a supportive, giving dynamic — Gyeong (경) may naturally offer energy, encouragement, or resources that Im (임) benefits from. It's worth noting this can tilt toward one-sidedness over time if it's never reciprocated, so traditional readings suggest both people stay conscious of give-and-take rather than settling into fixed roles.
Curious what this looks like with your actual birth chart? The Saju Compatibility tool on this site calculates both Day Masters from real birth dates and times, along with each person's full Five Element balance.
