Seal stars produce your Day Master — they represent protection, learning, and elder mentors.
Direct Seal (different yin/yang) represents mother, formal education, degrees, steady jobs. People with Direct Seal as favorable have elder support, smooth schooling, and stable careers. Direct Seal also represents thoughtfulness and tolerance.
Indirect Seal (same yin/yang), also called "Owl," represents aptitude for philosophy, religion, metaphysics, psychology — but a more solitary personality. When Indirect Seal overcomes Eating God ("Owl stealing Food"), expect low mood and digestive issues.
Too much Seal makes you dependent and lazy — "overmothered" where the Seal buries the Day Master. You need Wealth to "break" the excessive Seal (to break over-protection).
