What Is the Six Hazards?

Six Hazards is one of the more fatigue-oriented stars — associated with blocked progress, low energy, and the feeling of treading water. In classical readings it marked periods when pushing hard produced little, and when rest and consolidation served better than ambition. The modern reading is self-care: recognize the low cycle, lower the stakes, and let the body and mind rebuild. Six Hazards punishes burnout and rewards patience; its seasons pass, and they preserve what haste would lose.
