Type No. 298 of 576
the First Flame × the Herald of the Dawn
Beginnings × Precision × the Open Loom
Aries
Aries is the sign of the first step. In the Tsuki no Ito reading, this thread tends to move before the plan is finished — energy arrives early, and the path is corrected while walking it.
Rooster
The Rooster is the herald of the dawn — the bird whose call starts the day and, in the old tale, drew the sun goddess back to the world. This thread tends to notice what is out of place and to say so.
It approaches life by standards: wake early, inspect everything, announce what is ready.
Type O
Type O is read, in the Japanese custom, as the open loom — the frame the other threads hang on. This reading tends to gather people, set a generous pace, and aim at the outcome rather than the procedure.
In practice, the O thread leads best in the open: clear goal, public credit, and details happily delegated to careful hands.
The shadow in this thread is the skipped stitch: big-picture confidence can wave past a small fact that later holds the whole pattern.
Strengths and tender spots

Gift: discernment — a Rooster's praise is worth more because its criticism is honest
Tender spot: starting three things at once and finishing the loudest one only
