Stories by Jirisan Mansin
- She brought up their plans again while getting ready that morning. — Husband had checked his fortune in the Tojeong Bigyeol and suggested changing their plans. They were nearly done getting ready for work, but his wife still hadn’t answered.
- As I flip through the year-end calendar, my health is the first thing on my mind. — As I flip through the calendar to look back on the year, the busy days and the days I barely managed to rest sometimes stand out first. Even when I read the dates in the Korean almanac, I look first at how I spent each day, not at the numbers.
- After saying yes to a favor, it comes back to me when I catch my breath during a workout. — When my family asks me for something, I say yes first. Then, when I catch my breath during a workout, that answer comes back to me. I use the day’s fortune not as an answer, but as a way to look at what was weighing on me that day.
- I came back from celebrating, but I still have no idea where to go with my work. — Even after celebrating, I’m still unsure what direction to take with my work. Tojeong Bigyeol doesn’t decide how your year will go; you can read it as a way to look again at the work you want.
- I couldn’t bring myself to say I’d dreamed we’d argued. — Last night’s dream came back to me in the salon mirror. If I said it out loud, what would I hear first?
- When I rush my child, I think of our different zodiac signs — When my child dawdles as we get ready for work, my tone turns sharp first. Our zodiac signs may offer a clue to understanding our different paces, but they can’t sum up who my child is.
- I can't pick a date after the company dinner. — I have news to share with my family. Even after the company dinner, I can't bring myself to say a date out loud. My hand stops over the almanac.
- When a friend comes to mind while doing the dishes — Something about a friend left me feeling hurt. As I do the dishes, they suddenly come to mind. I see a daily fortune as something that can help me notice what’s weighing on my heart, not as an answer that tells me what my friend feels.
- A dream of getting out of the water comes back, even on an autumn walk — After dreaming you fell into the water and got out, that scene can suddenly come back to you while you’re doing something else. Rather than seeing the dream as a sign of what’s ahead, let’s look together at where your thoughts lingered in that moment.
- Even dressed, I ask my fortune whether I should rest today. — Even after I’m dressed for work, if my body feels heavy, I check my fortune first to see whether it’s okay to rest today. I read it not as an answer that decides when I can take a break, but as a chance to notice my body’s signals and the day’s circumstances together.
