Cypress concatenate to find second element

can someone, please, help, in following case:

Found element with following css selector (there is a list of charts, where only one chart has mark with "Current Day" text on top of it).

'div[id*="view-panel"] div.bar_chart g.bar_chart__now > text'

Based on that element, want to find another element (which is on found chart - its bottom), which displays name of the day (i.e "Friday"). Tried with following code:

cy.get('div[id*="view-panel"] div.bar_chart g.bar_chart__now > text').as('currentDay');
cy.get('@ccurrentDay').find('..').find('..').find('g.bar_chart__xaxis text');

Whole css selector for second element (for second code line above), looks:

'div[id*="view-panel"] div.bar_chart g.bar_chart__xaxis text'

What I tried to achieve is after first found element, go two steps back and find day name of chart bottom, but what I only get is an error:

CypressError: Timed out retrying: Expected to find element: ‘…’, but never found it.

What I am doing incorrect in above attempt to concatenate finding element? Thank you in advance

You should use Within command

cy.get('div[id*="view-panel"] div.bar_chart g.bar_chart__now > text')
.within(()=>{
    cy.get('g.bar_chart__xaxis text')
})
