Type No. 302 of 576
the Patient Garden × the Plow of the North Field
Steadiness × Endurance × the Open Loom
Taurus
Taurus is the sign of the tended garden. This thread tends to build slowly and keep what it builds — comfort, craft, and loyalty grow in the same soil.
Ox
The Ox is the animal that plows the field in straight lines. This thread tends to trust effort over luck and to finish what it starts, season after season.
It approaches life by routine: the same honest work, done well, until the field itself changes.
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
Strength: endurance that turns small daily care into something lasting
Gift: reliability — people build plans around an Ox without thinking twice
Tender spot: holding a course long after the season for it has changed
