Saju seasonal fortune
Hanlu (Cold Dew) is one of the 24 solar terms (jieqi) used in the Korean Saju and East Asian lunisolar calendar. This page explains its meaning, the dominant 5-element flow, and how to use it when reading your Korean four-pillar fortune.
Hanlu (Cold Dew) cools the dew to near-frost. The Xu (戌) month begins — Earth absorbing autumn's residue. In Saju, this is integrate-before-storage time: organize archives, finalize Q4 commitments.
Metal (金) represents structure, refinement, and harvest. Under a Metal-dominant solar term, the chi contracts inward — pruning, clarifying, and finishing are favored. In Saju, Metal controls Wood (officer), is controlled by Fire (officer-receiver), produces Water (output), is produced by Earth (resource). Practical use: finalize contracts, close loops, edit work, sharpen skills, audit finances. Avoid impulsive new expansions; restraint pays.
