What is Gokjik-Gyeok (Follow Wood)?
Gokjik-Gyeok is the Wood-dominant Jong-Gyeok pattern, named after the nature of wood — bending and straightening, growing upward. When Wood reaches extreme dominance (80%+ of chart weight) and opposing elements lack root support, the chart 'follows Wood.' This often occurs in charts with multiple Wood stems (Gap, Eul) and Wood branches (In, Myo). The resulting chart emphasizes growth, creativity, and compassion.
