Fifth Revision

Preface
Revision 5
First of all, I am personally a student of Zhong Zhou Pai, and where there are biases
to plotting or descriptions, I will take reference to what was transmitted to me in my lineage.
Having taken formal training, I had some new inspiration and a better understanding
of . Today, I believe I am better placed to reorganise the material for added flow
and coherence. Inconsistencies where found are corrected. It is an ongoing work, and Ill be
working on reorganising existing materials rather than augmenting with more unstructured
materials.
People have generally found the material herein useful, and some have volunteered useful
links for charting or further resource.

CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION
Commentary With the proliferation of enormous information yielded by , it

is easy to fall into erroneous conceptions that we are unable to change our life or dictate
our future - because so much have been written. Rather, the student should perceive the
information as allowing us all to maximise our potential and to minimise risks and avoid
pitfalls in life. The future is in our own hands.
A very useful analogy which I have frequently used is as follows: The destiny chart is
the hand that we are dealt. How we play the hand is the human aspect of our luck. The
environment is the metagame - those who you are playing your hand against. And a proper
19
consultation is akin to having a strategist sitting beside you as a guide on how to play your
game.
Assessing and Bazi is like peeling an onion. There are so many levels; though
the first few levels seems so easy, it rapidly gets more complicated.
20
A good interpretation is like a having a good road map and

compass. It saves us from spending energy on things that either unsuitable or not right at
the time. Save your energy for when the time is right. Every dog has his day. A good Destiny
consultation will be able to say when. When heaven earth time and people are perfect.
Commentary This is familiar to all of us, is it not? Their weightage of influence on our
lives is the heaviest from the top down, while the amount of control we can exert over them
is the biggest from the bottom up. It is more critical to find out our likely trends first than
to talk about Fengshui. Once we understand our predispositions can we then use Fengshui to
remedy issues. For instance, when both the structural trends and the cycle luck of Estates
Domain is good, it is easier for us to get a good house and good Fengshui. When they are
the reverse, it is easier for us to get a bad settlement and bad Fengshui.

Study Guide
This section was prepared because the materials herein has ballooned in proportions. A fresh
initiate will be overwhelmed by the deluge of information, and initially be lost with the study
or get caught up in details too early on. I will attempt to provide a rough direction of approach as a beacon of light, just as others have provided that to me.
Know the 14 major stars inside out

Know where the major stars like to be
Know the Elements and parity of the stars
Know how the interacts
Know the various templates for readings (Personality, Wealth level, Relationship etc)...
Be fluent with Si Hua Ge Jue or the table to draw the . The Four Transformations play an increasingly greater role in advanced interpretations and will stand
the student in very good position to have a sound command of these stars placement.
Knowing the 14 Major Stars inside out is not about rote memorisation of how they behave
in different palace or their full details. We need to understand the content of the and
relate the characters in it to the corresponding star, not just the 14 major star. Once you
understand the character well, you will naturally able to imagine how the star would react
when encountering certain situations
Understand and remember that the corresponds to the Three Harmony of the Zodiac.
In fact, we need not know the various templates for readings if we are able to fully
understand the stars characteristics.
Yes, we can learn and memorized all the characteristic of the stars by hard but the furthest
we can go is stuck in the as hardly would a master willing to disclose the actual way they
read a to the public freely.
Unfortunately, reading the interactions between the different layers of Destiny, Decade,
Annual, Monthly all the way down to Daily requires a Master to guide. It is not really that
straightforward to learn from books.

History
,
Elements of the system of was devised by a Taoist named Lu Chunyang (
). It was subsequently refined, improve and properly documented by Chen Xiyi ()
during the Northern Song(960 to 1127) Dynasty and yet again later on by Luo Hongxian (
) during the Ming( 1368 to 1644) Dynasty to the present day format. Its exact origin,
however, is still debated among the different schools. Official historical records and unofficial
notes from the Song Dynasty have never associated Chen Xiyi with Chinese metaphysics and
therefore not be taken as a guaranteed historical context.
This method was popular during the Ming and Qing period and it is still very popular today.
Although has achieved the goal of providing strong competition to Bazi analysis
because has the capacity to give enormous specific details, the methodology did not flourish
for the next 1,000 years for two reasons. First, while able to provide detailed readings, the
method did not provide the logic of the interpretations, and it was seemingly not based on
profound theoretical basis like Ziping Bazi. Second, it has become the exclusive instrument
of the Bureau of Astronomy of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, used only to serve the ruling
Emperor of China. Therefore, Ziping Bazi was the only well known main stream destiny
analysis method until the recent times, when some masters began teaching openly
after World War II.
Chinese Astrology has always been closely intertwined with Astronomy. Gifted astronomer
cum astrologers were recruited as officials to work in Imperial Courts during the dynastic
eras. In those days, astrological charts were delineated for the Emperor as his personal fate
has a direct bearing on that of his kingdom. The court astrologers also played an important
role in determining the successor to the throne.
Astrologers observed the stars and noticed that among so many stars, only one was seemingly
stationary while the rest revolved around it. As it was also the brightest, the chinese courtiers
named it theEmperor Star - the celestial equivalent of the Emperor. That star is known as
Polaris in astronomy.
23
24
CHAPTER 2. HISTORY
Polaris (UMi / Ursae Minoris / Alpha Ursae Minoris, commonly North(ern)

Star or Pole Star, and sometimes Lodestar) is the brightest star in the constellation Ursa Minor. It is very close to the north celestial pole (42away as of 2006),
making it the current northern pole star.
Due to the precession of the equinoxes, Polaris will not always be the pole star.
Over tens of thousands of years, perturbations to the Earths axis of rotation will
cause it to point to other regions of the sky, tracing out a circle. Other stars along
this circle were the pole star in the past and will be again in the future, including
Thuban and Vega.

Classic Texts
There are only two openly published ancient scriptures on .

The first is Zi Wei Dou Shu Quan Ji () by Chen Xiyi() - The Complete
Compilation of Zi Wei Dou Shu. It is a four part manual that describes the original techniques.
The other is Zi Wei Dou Shu Quan Shu () - the Complete Book of Zi Wei
Dou Shu. Errors and contradictions have subsequently been found within this book, the most
obvious being the teaching of a different way to begin Decade cycles, called Da Yun.
There exists also other unpublished texts called Kou Jue (), which are verbal instructions in rhyme, passed on separately in different schools from teachers to disciples. Their
existence is due to the secretive nature in teaching in the old days, and they vary from one
school to another, perhaps the result of different emphases on the principles and applications,
enriched with personal inspirations and testimonies from different teachers.
There are only several schools in , but the number can be considered one too many
when there was only one original teaching. However, this is quite an acceptable phenomenon
since teaching was not done in an open, systematic and orderly manner in the old days, and
printing was not as refined, both lead to minor differences being created along the way.
2.2
Various Sects
As of 2009, there are two main schools of thought in . The first emphasizes on
reading the stars, is broadly categorised under . The other places an emphasis on
reading , and is therefore broadly classified as .
2.2.1
San He Types
In the (San He,Three Combination) System, the characteristic of any domian (e.g. career,
wealth, health etc) are determined by studying the stars in the court in conjunction with the
stars in the courts that form a triangle. Often the stars in the court that is directly opposite
are also considered in the analysis.

Further Reading
There are two openly published ancient scriptures for Zi Wei Dou Shu , namely:
A classic, The Complete Compilation of Zi Wei Dou Shu, is written
about 200 years ago. It describes the original teaching. There are also quite a number
of books written by many authors who have name their book with the same title.
The other is Zi Wei Dou Shu Quan Shu. This is likely a fake as
there are errors and contradictions in the book, the most obvious being the teaching of
a different way to begin the decade cycles. It is perhaps a useful auxiliary reference for
keen students.
(translated as The Investiture of the Gods or The Creation of the Gods), also
known as Fengshen Bang (Chinese: ), is one of the major Vernacular Chinese
novels written in the Ming Dynasty. The story deals with the decline of the Shang
Dynasty and rise of the Zhou Dynasty, intertwining numerous elements of Chinese
mythology, including gods and goddesses, Chinese immortals, and spirits. It is, to an
extent, representative and descriptive of life in China at the time, where religion played
a major role in everyday life. The authorship of Fengshen Yanyi is attributed to Xu
Zhonglin (; ) (d. 1566) or Lu Xixing (; ) (d. 1601). Many of
the stars take on character roles within the novel, and it helps the student greatly by
improving the intuition and feel for the personalities.

CHAPTER 2. HISTORY
Chapter 3
Chinese Mythology
To fully comprehend the characteristics of the fourteen major stars in it is necessary
to have an idea historically, or mythologically which stars are linked to which characters.
This chapter provides only a brief introduction for the characters and do not substitute the
reading of Feng Shen Yan Yi.
3.1
Overview of Feng Shen Yan Yi
Creation of the Gods, written by Xu Zhonglin (the Yuan dynasty), published in the Ming
Dynasty (11368-1644), is the most popular and one of the best, if not also the best-written,
Chinese classics of mythical literature.
It begins with the grand pilgrimage of King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty (1700 B.C.1100 B.C.), the most notorious tyrant in Chinese legend, to worship the Goddess Nu Wa,
the creator of mankind in Chinese mythology, on her birthday. The beauty of the goddess
completely bewitched the monarch and sets him on fire with lust. His poem written on the
wall to express his deep love for the goddess infuriates her. She decided to punish the king
and bring an end to the Shang Dynasty. The novel culminates with the crowning of King
Wu of Zhou Dynasty (1066 B.C.256 B.C.) and the canonization of gods by his prime minister
Jiang Ziya.
However, the Chinese was a nation mostly composed of polytheists, who believed that
there were numerous gods in the Three Realms Heaven, World, and Hell-that rules over
everything in this world and created various deities to suit their varied desires and needs.
Most of the gods anti deities were posthumously canonized historical national heroes and
upright officials who were believed to have been heavenly deities sent to this world to deliver
mankind from misery. In fact the roots of many of such popular beliefs and legend are found
in Creation of the Gods.
Therefore, the novel is not simply a piece of literature, but very much an agglomeration
of folk beliefs and religion. It is in fact a valuable and indispensable tool in understanding
the Chinese folk culture.
Based on true historical events in ancient China three thousand years ago but given a major
mythical twist, Creation of the Gods (or more accurately Canonization of the Gods) tells
the story of the rebellion against, and the fall of, the degenerate and tyrannical last emperor
of the Shang Dynasty, the rise of the benevolent first emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, and the
subsequent canonization of the fallen warriors of both sides as gods in the Chinese pantheon.
31
32
CHAPTER 3. CHINESE MYTHOLOGY
Creation of the Gods mainly deals with the war between forces loyal to the dying Shang
dynasty and those of the rising Zhou dynasty. Warriors with magical powers are aplenty, and
Chinese readers should have no problem recognizing their beloved folk heroes and mythical
gods, including such colorful characters as the Third Prince Nezha with his three heads and
eight arms and his magical weapons (a lance, a ring, a coverlet and a pair of fire wheels) and
his brothers Jinzha and Muzha, the warrior god Yang Jian (also called the Little Sage Erlang
in Journey to the West) with his all-seeing mystical third eye, 72 magical transformations
and his immortal demon-subduing dog, Thunderbolt the thunder god, the four Heavenly
Kings (commonly seen as temple guardians in Chinese Buddhist temples) and Li Jing, the
pagoda bearing heavenly general. These characters also make cameo appearances in Journey
to the West.
3.2
Huang Feihu
Huang Feihu (Chinese: ; Pinyin: Hung Fih) is a major character featured within
the famed ancient Chinese novel Fengshen Yanyi.
Huang Feihu is the son of Huang Gun. He is renowned as the top general throughout
the whole Shang Dynasty. When Daji had effectively convinced the idiotic King Zhou that it
would be best to retrieve the two fleeing princes after slaying an official, Huang Feihu would
make his first true appearance.
When the princes had both been stolen by the giant Fang Brothers before Huang Feihus
very own eyes, Huang Feihu was pleased to see that the capital was still possessed of at least
a few truly justified individuals. Following this, the king, along with the Chao Twins (Chao
Tian and Chao Lei) would decide it best that Huang Feihu himself should pursue the Fang
Brothers who are present with the two princes. Thus, he heads out on his purple mystic
bull with the duel Dragon-Phoenix Sword given by the twins.
Huang Feihu was appointed as the Great Emperor of Mount Tai () in the end.
3.3
Bo Yikao
Bo Yi Kao (Chinese: ; Pinyin: BYKo) is a character in the Ming Dynasty

Chinese novel Fengshen Yanyi (Investiture of the Gods). In the book, Bo Yi Kao is the eldest
son of the Grand Duke of the West, Ji Chang.
From the prophecy revealed by the oracle bones, Jiang Ziya predicted that Di Xins
loyal and benevolent courtier, Bi Gan would die soon, thereby giving a charm to Bi. Before
long, Daji, the evil vixen told her husband that she had a heart attack and only a delicate
seven-aperture heart(Qiqiao Linglong Xin) could relieve her agony. No-one in the palace
had that kind of heart except Bi, who was given a heart by the goddess Nwa, when he
drowned once during his childhood. Bi, loyal as he is, swallowed the charm given by Jiang,
grabbed his heart and pulled it out of his body to be given to Di Xin. Bi did not lose his
life, nor shed a single drop of blood. Instead, he walked out of the palace and did what Jiang
instructed: go straight home immediately without looking back. If he succeeded in doing this,
he would recover after one day.
Yet upon the last few steps on reaching home, a female huckster yelled from behind Bi,
Hey! Cheap cabbages without stems (xin)!(i.e., Baoxin Cai, literally a vegetable with a
stem covered inside; xin, heart, rhetorically refers to the stem in this case).
3.4. DAJI
33
Bi, curious and unsuspicious, turned back and asked the huckster, How can there be
cabbages without stems? The old lady donned an evil grin and replied, Youre right,
sir. Cabbages cannot live without stems as men cannot live without hearts (xin).Bi shouted
in his loud voice, fell to the ground and died without knowing that the lady hawker was a
disguise made by the jade-made Pipa spirit. Thus, Jiang who was able to foretell Bis death,
could not prevent the tragedy from happening.
3.3.1
Role in plot
When Ji Chang went away to the capital Zhaoge and predicted that he would not come back
for seven years, Bo Yi Kao was chosen to be the next head of Mount Singing Phoenix. Once
the seven years were up, Bo Yi Kao left for the capital to retrieve his father.
Bo Yi Kao left with his three grand treasures as gifts to the king. Dressed in white
ceremonial robes as a sign of respect, Bo Yi Kao first met with Prince Bi Gan and was
allowed to meet with the king shortly afterwards. On his knees in respect, Bo Yi Kao said:
My father committed a crime against Your Majesty, and Your Majesty spared his life. We
are eternally grateful. I am here to beseech Your Majesty to let him come home, so that
our family can be whole again. We will be ever and forever singing your praise. With these
words, Bo Yi Kao gained the favor of King Zhou, and the sexual attraction of Daji.
Bo Yi Kaos lute-playing won the praise of the king but led Daji to wish for Bo Yi Kao to
become close to her, to be able to seduce her. Her attentions were firmly rejected by Bo Yi
Kao, however, who had quickly realized Dajis true intention. Due to his action, Dajis love
would turn into hatred. With the chance to perform two final songs with his lute as to save
his life from the kings wrath, Bo Yi Kao play with even greater skill. Stupidly however, Bo
Yi Kao threw the lute at Daji in a fit of anger, which caused his death. If Bo Yi Kao would
have simply played his lute and not resorted to physical action, he would have most likely
have lived. After Bo Yi Kaos execution his flesh was made into large meat cakes that were
sent to Ji Chang, his father, as a test.
3.4
Daji
Daji (; Pinyin: Dj) was a favorite concubine of King Zhou, the last king of Shang
Dynasty in China. Known for her beauty and cruelty that brought ruin to a dynasty, she is
often portrayed as an evil fox spirit in literature, such as the famed Chinese novel Fengshen
Yanyi.
According to historical record, Daji was the beautiful daughter of a noble family named
Su () in the state of Yousu (). In 1047 BC, Zhou, the king of Shang, conquered the state
of Su and took Daji as his trophy. By then, the king was in his sixties and had been in his
throne for forty years. He had been known as strong and heroic, an orator and well-versed
in music. Under his reign, Shang had become a powerful and prosperous state. He certainly
had his Achillesheel, namely, his infatuated love for women. Ever since Zhou had Daji as
his concubine, things began to change for the worse.
Zhou liked Daji so much that he tried every means to ingratiate himself with her. Daji
liked animals, so he built her a zoological Xanadu with a large collection of rare birds and
animals. She liked dancing and singing, so he ordered artists to compose lewd music and
choreograph bawdy dances. Forgetting about state affairs all together, King Zhou began to
spend all his time with Daji. He would gather three thousand guests at one party to enjoy
34
his pond of wineand forest of meat,which was cooked meat strips hanging from a
wood of trees. King Zhou would allow the guests to play a cat and mouse game in the nude
among the trees so that Daji could be amused. When a maid of honor, daughter of Lord
Jiu, could not bear the sight of such debauchery and protested, King Zhou had her slain, her
father ground up, and his flesh fed to the tyrants vassals.
Eventually Daji became a brute herself. It was said that her greatest joy was to hear
people cry in physical sufferings. Once, as she saw a farmer walking barefoot on the ice, she
ordered his feet be cut off so that she could study it and figure out the cause of its resistance
to cold temperature. In another occasion, she had a pregnant womans belly cut open so
that she could satisfy her curiosity of finding out what happened therein. To verify the old
saying that a good mans heart had seven openings,she had the heart of Bi Gan, an
honest minister, cut out and subjected it to her fertile scrutiny.
On top of all those atrocities, Daji was best known for her invention of a device of torture
called Paolao (): a bronze cylinder heated like a furnace with charcoal until the sides
were extremely hot. A large bronze cylinder covered with oil was placed on top of a pile of
burning charcoal. Prisoners were made to walk on top of the slowly heating cylinder. As
the cylinder became hot, the prisoners are forced to shift their feet to avoid the burning. In
turn, the oil made it difficult for the prisoners to maintain their stance. If they fell into the
charcoal, they would burn to death. The prisoners are thus forced to dance in agony and fear,
screaming in prolonged pain, while Zhou and Daji laughed at the tortured dances. Eventually,
the prisoners would fall into the charcoal and burn to death Daji would take great delight in
the painful cries of the condemned. By the order to execute Daji from Jiang Ziya himself,
she was executed by the King Wu of Zhou personally after the fall of the Shang Dynasty.
Daji is featured within the famed Chinese novel Investiture of the Gods (or more commonly
known as Fengshen Yanyi) as a major character. Daji is the first featured corrupter of the
Shang Dynasty in this novel. When Daji had first been featured however, she was simply
the average daughter of Su Hu. A major conflict arose because of King Zhous lust for the
beautiful Daji; Su Hu eventually allowed this desire to be fulfilled. During a strange wind
at night however, the original Daji was killed and replaced by an evil nine tailed fox specter
known as the Thousand-Year-Old Vixen. Within Investiture of the Gods, there is a specific
poem that tells the trickery of Su Hu and the replacement of Dajis flesh and blood with a
vixen that will fool the world to the very end. Thus following Dajis arrival at Zhaoge - the
capital of the Shang Dynasty - Daji would be considered as the greatest concubine under
King Zhou and would be the only true attention of the king.
Chaos soon spread throughout the Shang Dynasty because of the idiotic ways of the inept
king - the favoring of lust and wealth and shunning of the officials. A chapter in the two later
on in the novel, a renowned man by the name of Yunzhongzi would be the first man to act
against Daji by giving a magical wooden sword to the king that would make Daji sick and
ill and eventually die. Even after many loyal officials pleaded for change - as to avoid the
kingdoms death - Daji would always manage to grab hold of King Zhous colossal idiocy and
use it as a shield to kill the evil, including Mei Bo. Thus, following Dajis future in the
novel, she would even rise to the rank of queen and continue her mission - the destruction of
Shang Dynasty. But eventually defeated and exorcised by Jiang Ziya (Taigong Wang).
3.5. KING ZHOU OF SHANG

King Zhou of Shang
King Di Xin of Shang (Chinese: ), born Zi Shou (Chinese: ) was the last king of
the Shang Dynasty. His given name was Zhu (), and he is therefore also called Zhou Xin
(; Zhu Xn) or King Zhou (; Zhu Wng). He may also be referred to by adding
Shang (Shng) in front of any of his names.
3.5.1
Early reign
In the Records of the Grand Historian, Sima Qian wrote that Di Xin, in the early part of his
reign, had abilities which surpassed the ordinary man, was quick-witted and quick-tempered.
In legend, he was intelligent enough to win all of his arguments, and he was strong enough to
hunt wild beasts with his bare hands. He was the younger brother of Wei Zi () and Wei
Zhong () (both children of a concubine) and father of Wu Geng () and Lu Fu ().
His father Di Yi had two brothers, Ji Zi and Bi Gan. Di Xin added to the territory of Shang
by battling the tribes surrounding it, including the Dongyi to the east.
3.5.2
Late reign
In his later years, Di Xin was given over to drinking, women and a lack of morals, preferring these to the proper governance of the country, and ignored almost all affairs of state.
According to Sima Qian, he even hosted festive orgies and created songs with crude (erotic)
lyrics and poor rhythm. In legends, he is depicted as having come under the influence of
his wicked wife Daji (), and committing all manner of evil and cruel deeds with her.
In fictionalizations, including the novel Fengshen Yanyi, she was said to be possessed by a
malevolent fox spirit.
One of the most famous forms of entertainment Zhou enjoyed was the Alcohol Pool and
Meat Forest (). A large pool, big enough for several canoes, was constructed on
the Palace grounds, with inner linings of polished oval shaped stones from the sea shores.
This allowed for the entire pool to be filled with alcohol. A small island was constructed in
the middle of the pool, where trees were planted, which had branches made of roasted meat
skewers hanging over the pool. This allowed Zhou and his friends and concubines to drift on
canoes in the pool. When they thirst, they reached down into the pool with their hands and
drank the wine. When they hungerred, they reached up with their hands to eat the roasted
meat. This was considered one of the most famous examples of decadence and corruption of
a ruler in Chinese history.
In order to please Daji, he created the Cannon Burning Punishment (). One
large bronze cylinder covered with oil was placed on top of a pile of burning charcoal. Prisoners
were made to walk on top of the slowly heating cylinder. As the cylinder became hot, the
prisoners are forced to shift their feet to avoid the burning. In turn, the oil made it difficult
for the prisoners to maintain their stance. If they fell into the charcoal, they would burn
to death. The prisoners are thus forced to dance in agony and fear, screaming in prolonged
pain, while Zhou and Daji laughed at the tortured dances. Eventually, the prisoners would
fall into the charcoal and burn to death.
Zhou and Daji were known to get highly aroused after watching such victims. Victims
ranged from civilians and prisoners to high government officials, including Mei Bo.
In order to fund Zhous heavy expenses each day, extremely heavy taxes were implemented.
36
The civilians suffered greatly, and lost all hope for the Shang Dynasty. Zhous brother Wei Zi
tried to persuade him to change, but was rebuked. His uncle Bi Gan similarly remonstrated
with him, but Di Xin had his heart ripped out so he could see what the heart of a sage looked
like. When his other uncle Ji Zi heard this, he went to remonstrate with the kingly nephew
and, feigning madness, was imprisoned.
3.5.3
Fall
When Zhou Dynastys army, lead by the famous Jiang Ziya, defeated the Shang Dynasty in
the Battle of Muye, Di Xin gathered all his treasures around himself in the Palace, and then
set fire to his palace and committed suicide.
The name Zhou actually appeared after the death of King Zhou, a posthumous name.
This name was a representation of his actions of both dishonor and cold-heartedness. King
Zhou would go down in history as the worst example of a corrupted king in China.
3.6
Jiang Ziya
Jiang Ziya (Chinese: , Pinyin: Jing Zy, Wade-Giles: Chiang Tzu-ya) (dates of
birth and death unknown) was a Chinese historical and legendary figure who resided next to
the Weishui River about 3,000 years ago. The region was the feudal estate of King Wen of
Zhou.
3.6.1
Background
The last rulers of the Shang dynasty (16th - 11th century BC) was a tyrannical and debauched
slave owner who spent his days carousing with his favourite concubine Daji and mercilessly
executing or punishing upright officials and all others who objected to his ways. Jiang Shang
had once served the Shang king and had come to hate him with all his heart. He was an expert
in military affairs and hoped that some day someone would call on him to help overthrow the
king. He waited and waited till he was 80 years old, continuing placidly with his fishing in
a tributary of the Weihe River (near todays Xian) using a barbless hook or even no hook
at all, on the theory that the fish would come to him of their own volition when they were
ready.
3.6.2
Hire by King Wen of the Zhou
King Wen of the Zhou state, (central Shaanxi), found Jiang Shang fishing. King Wen, following the advice of his father and grandfather before him, was in search of talented people.
In fact, he had been told by his grandfather, the Grand Duke of Zhou, that one day a sage
would appear to help rule the Zhou state.
When King Wen saw Jiang Shang, at first sight he felt that this was an unusual old
man, and began to converse with him. He discovered that this white-haired fisherman was
actually an astute political thinker and military strategist. This, he felt, must be the man his
grandfather was waiting for. He took Jiang Shang in his coach to the court and appointed
him prime minister and gave him the title Jiang Taigongwang (Hope of the Duke of Zhou).
This was later shortened to Jiang Taigong.

Attack of the Shang
After King Wen died, his son King Wu, who inherited the throne, decided to send troops to
overthrow the King of Shang. But Jiang Taigong stopped him, saying: While I was fishing
at Panxi, I realised one truth- if you want to succeed you need to be patient . We must wait
for the appropriate opportunity to eliminate the King of Shang. Soon it was reported that
the people of Shang were so oppressed that no one dared speak. King Wu and Jiang Taigong
decided this was the time to attack, for the people had lost faith in the ruler. A bloody
battle was fought at Muye (35 kilometres from the Shang capital Yin, now Anyang in Henan
province).
Jiang Taigong charged at the head of the troops, beat the battle drums and then with
100 of his men drew the Shang troops to the southwest. King Wus troops moved quickly and
surrounded the capital. The Shang King had sent relatively untrained slaves to fight. This,
plus the fact that many surrendered or revolted, enabled Zhou to take the capital.
King Zhou set fire to his palace and perished in it, and King Wu and his successors as
the Zhou dynasty established rule over all of China. As for Daji, one version has it that she
was captured and executed by the order of Jiang Taigong himself, another that she took her
own life, another that she was killed by King Zhou. Jiang Taigong was made duke of the
State of Qi (todays Shandong province), which thrived with better communications and
exploitation of its fish and salt resources under him.
As the most notable Prime Minister employed by King Wen and King Wu, he was declared
the master of strategyresulting in the Zhou government growing far stronger than that of
the Shang Dynasty as the years elapsed. Thus making him known well as the most famous
Prime Minister of all in China.
3.6.4
Personal views and historical influence
An account of Jiang Taigongs life written long after his time says he held that a country
could become powerful only when the people prospered. If the officials enriched themselves
while the people remained poor, the ruler would not last long. The major principle in ruling
a country should be to love the people; and to love the people meant to reduce taxes and
corve labour. By following these ideas, King Wen is said to have made the Zhou state
proper very rapidly.
His treatise on military strategy, Six Secret Strategic Teachings, is considered one of the
Seven Military Classics of Ancient China.
Jiang Ziyas seventh generation descendant (his great-grandsons great-grandsons son)
was Jiang Chi (). Jiang Chi had a great-grandson named Shi (), who was given a piece
of land in Shandong province called Lu (). He took his surname from the land. All Chinese
with the last name Lu () can trace their ancestry back to Jiang Ziya.
Today, Jiang Ziya is regarded as one of the greatest strategists in both Chinese history
and the world, and is honored as the first famous general and progenitor of strategic studies.
In the Tang Dynasty he was even accorded his own state temple as the martial patron and
thereby attained officially sanctioned status apporaching that of Confucius.
3.6.5
In popular culture
He is a prominent character in the popular Chinese classic novel Creation of the Gods (
) or called Fengshen Yanyi. In this novel he is known well as Da Jis arch-rival, arch-nemesis
38
and the one who ordered her execution personally.

There are two xiehouyu about him:
* Grand Duke Jiang fishes - those who are willing jump at the bait (),
which means put ones own head in the noose[1]. * Grand Duke Jiang investiture the gods
- omitting himself (), which means leave out oneself.
In the scenario Chinese Unification of the Civilization IV: Warlords expansion pack,
Jiang Ziya is the leader of the State of Qi.
The protagonist of Hoshin Engi, Tai Gong Wang, is based on Jiang Ziya.
Jiang Ziya is also Da Jis arch-rival (Jiang Ziya never thought of Da Ji as his rival while
Da Ji herself always thought that Jiang Ziya was her rival) as Jiang Ziya can easily through
Da Jis plans.
Jiang Ziya is a playable character in Koeis Warriors Orochi 2. In the game he is alternatively referred to as Taigong Wang. A stark contrast to the historical accounts however,
would be that he is portrayed as a handsome young man, who is quite arrogant, although he
is still a divinely genius strategist and a good man at heart. He is often referred to by others,
namely Fu Xi, Nu Wa and Da Ji as boy. The reason for his radically improvised design may
be to emphasize his rivalry with Da Ji, whose character design depicts her as being young
and beautiful as well. Their clashes can be inspired loosely on the Fengshen Yanyi.
3.7
Bi Gan
Cai Shen (traditional Chinese: ; simplified Chinese: ; pinyin: Cishn; Wade-Giles:

Tsai2 Shen2) is the Chinese god of prosperity. He can be referred to as Zhao Gongming (Chao
Kung-ming) or Bi Gan (Pi-kan).[1] Though Cai Shen started as a Chinese folk hero, later
deified and venerated by local followers and admirers, Taoism and Pure Land Buddhism also
came to venerate him as a god.
Cai Shens name is often invoked during the Chinese New Year celebrations.[1] He is often
depicted riding a black Tiger and holding a golden rod. He may also be depicted armed with
any one of several iron weapons.
Several versions of Cai Shens political affiliation and subsequent deification are circulated.[1] It is unclear whether he is a genuine historical figure, though the vast majority of
stories agree that Cai Shen lived during the early Qin Dynasty. It is believed that Bi Gan
had a wife with the surname Chen (), or Chan in Cantonese. His son is Quan (). After Bi
Gan was assassinated, his wife and son escaped into the woods. His death eventually marked
the collapse of the Shang Dynasty. Later on, Quan was honoured as the ancestor of all Lins
by Zhou Wu Wang.
3.8
King Wu of Zhou
King Wu of Zhou (Chinese: ; pinyin: zhu wwng) or King Wu of Chou was the
first sovereign, or ruler of the Chinese Zhou Dynasty. Various sources quoted that he died at
the age of 93, 54 or 43. He was considered a just and able leader. Zhou Gong Dan was one
of his brothers.
King Wu was the second son of King Wen of Zhou. After ascending to the throne, King Wu
tried to accomplish his fathers dying wish: the defeat of the Shang Dynasty. King Wu used
many wise government officialsmost notably Prime Minister Jiang Ziya, a man evidentially
3.9. KING WEN OF ZHOU
39
declared as the master of strategyresulting in the Zhou government growing far stronger
as the years elapsed.
In 1048 BC, King Wu called for a meeting of the surrounding dukes at Meng Jin. More
than 800 dukes came to the meeting. In 1046 BC, seeing that the Shang government was in
a shambles, King Wu launched an attack along with many neighboring dukes. In the Battle
of Muye, Shang forces were destroyed, and King Di Xin of Shang set his palace on fire and
burned himself to death.
Following the victory, King Wu established many smaller feudal states under the rule of
his brothers and generals. He died three years later in 1043 BC.
He represents the star.
3.9
King Wen of Zhou
King Wen of Zhou (Chinese: ; pinyin: Zhu Wn Wng) named Ji Chang (Chinese:
; pinyin: JChng) (10991050 BC) was the founder of the Zhou Dynasty. He was the
son of King Ji of Zhou, the third son of King Tai of Zhou, and the favored grandson of his
grandfather. He was the nephew of Wu Taibo and Zhongyong, both rulers of the State of Wu
at one time.
This is the representative for .
3.9.1
Biography
The Zhou state was located in the Wei River valley in present day Shaanxi Province. At one
point, King Zhou of Shang, fearing Wens growing power, imprisoned him. However, many
officials respected Wen for his honourable governing. So they gave King Zhou many gifts, and
requested Wen s release. These gifts included gold, horses and women. Zhou agreed, and
Wen was released.
King Wen planned the conquest of the contemporaneous dynasty in power, the Shang
Dynasty, but he died before he could accomplish this.
His family name was Ji (Chinese: ; pinyin: j). He married TaiSi (Chinese: ;
pinyin: Tis) and had at least ten sons, two are Zhou Gong Dan and Zhou Gong Wu
(Chinese: ; pinyin: Zhu Gng W). His second son became King Wu of Zhou and
completed his fathers wishes by defeating the Shang army at their capital. He eventually
became the first king of the new Zhou dynasty.
King Wen is also known for his contributions to the Yi Jing, a manual of divination. King
Wen is attributed with having stacked the eight trigrams in their various permutations, to
create the sixty-four hexagrams. He is also said to have written the judgements which are
appended to each hexagram (the line statements are attributed to his son, the Duke of Zhou.
The most commonly used sequence of the sixty four hexagrams is attributed to King Wen
and is usually referred to as the King Wen sequence.

The Twelve Domains
Commentary These are the twelve domains of life that provides indepth insights
into. The word domain was chosen in place of palace or court because unlike face reading and
Fengshui, the Chinese word g

three terms are to be taken as interchangeable within the rest of the text. The may be
placed in any of the twelve frames, but the sequence of the twelve does not change.
is about reading the meaning of the stars when they are placed in the twelve domains.
In a nutshell, is only about two elements - the stars and the twelve aspects of
life. Mastering these two items, you master .
In Chinese, the word g
ong means both the twelve aspects of life, and the twelve positions
in a chart. For the different aspects of life, the term domain is suitably used, and for the
twelve positions in a chart represented by the twelve Earthly Branches, the term house will
be used; though the Branches will be mentioned directly instead. It makes the descriptions
more specific.
In a chart, the twelve domains go in a given sequence in anticlockwise manner. What we

need to establish is the position of the from birth month and birth time, and it can fall
into any of the twelve houses in a chart. The rest of the domains naturally fall into place,
after the Destiny Domain is placed.
The sequence goes: 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ,
8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , and 12 .
There is logic in the sequence. We grow up among siblings, fall in love, and have children.
Then after the main concerns are wealth and health, and then, how far we can go in travel.
When we are away from home, we rely on peers. We are what we do (career/business), and it

Parents Domain is being flanked by Self Domain and the Thinking Domain. Both
our behaviour and thoughts are influenced by our parents.
Personality decides much in life. It is because of certain special quality that a successful
person can scale great heights in life. It is also the lack of certain other quality that halts
him from going higher. Whether one handles the challenges in life well also depends on ones
personality.

4.1.1
The Destiny Domain and Body Domain

Destiny Domain
This domain manifests the subjects character, appearance and the general conditions and
environment of a persons job.

blueprint of the subjects destiny.
Four Corners
The Four Horses/Corners (, , , ) are the branches in the corner palaces of a
chart. They are often called the Four Horses because these Four Corners have to do with

Four Directions
The Four Directions (, , , ) are the branches in the palaces associated with the
four cardinal directions - North, East, South, and West respectively. These branches are

blossoms. are among the first flowers to bloom in China, usually around the end of
December until the spring rains destroy them in February. They are lovely, bright and lively,
4.1. THE DESTINY DOMAIN AND BODY DOMAIN

but do not last long. People with a lot of peach blossoms were not considered to have much
hope of living productively and responsibly, but in modern times these people can do quite
well in the arts and entertainments fields, where this kind of charisma can help them succeed.
Four Earths
The Four Earths (, , , ) are the branches associated with the Earth element. They
are sometimes called the Four Graves. Earth is heavy and not easily moved or changed, thus
those with their Ming in one of the Four Earths find it difficult to change and move as well.
They must work very hard to achieve and will do better if they move far from their birthplace
as early as is possible. Those with their Ming in (Heaven Net) or (Earth Net) get stuck
even more easily and need to break through their nets in order to succeed.

47
Commentary Beyond the twelve domains, there is a - A supplementary domain, or

the domain of main influence, but it is only found in only one of the six domains(note, not
all twelve) shown in the first slide.
48
4.2
The Siblings Domain
This domain manifests the relationship between siblings, the closest of friends as well as
business partners. We can also analyse the mothers character. Analysing with the 4 flying
stars, we can also deduce the mothers appearance as well as personality.
This represents the relationship between brothers and sisters. It also tells the characters of
brothers/sisters. This court describes your relationship to your siblings and close friends and
relatives. Are they instrumental to your well-being? Do you have many helpful, supportive,
or wealthier friends? Or do you live your life living on your own devices, and having to help
others instead?
4.3
The Spouse Domain
This describes the person(s) whom you have a serious relationship with. They may not
include casual love interests. Are you likely to be in a solid loving relationship, or are your
marriages most likely to all turn sour in the end, because of personality clashes, or extramarital
relationships? This represents the character of the spouse and relationship with spouse. This
palace can also predict whether marriage will end in divorce; whether there will be affairs.
House of spouse represents ones life partner and a chart does give you the answer
of the partners character, appearance and most of all whether she is supportive or not. It is
also possible to see if the relationship will affect ones quality of life. Generally, it is not ideal
for the House of spouse to be located at the four corners of a chart (, , , )
as it represents a relationship that is more prone to external influences and uncertainties.
4.4
The Children Domain
This domain also govern anything that is produced by the subject. In particular it is useful
for analysing the condition of a joint-partnership business.
This represents whether a person will have children or not; whether the children are good
or not; whether the children will be rich or not. This also represents the relationship a person
will have with his/her children. This also represents nieces and nephews. Children represent,
not only your children, but also people who depend on you. It can also be interpreted as
employees, or students (if you teach) and/or followers (if you are a preacher). Are they
plentiful, are they faithful? How will they do?
4.5
The Health Domain
This represents your health condition such as the kinds of diseases youll likely to encounter.
The overall health of this court describes the overall physical conditiion of your body. If it is
weak. It is an indication that one has to work harder to maintain good health. It indicates
the chances of getting mishaps as well.
4.6
The Wealth Domain
This represents your financial income whether a person will have steady income, or encounter
losses. This also tells whether income is from hard work or not.
4.7. THE TRAVEL DOMAIN
49
This is easily the most interesting court to many. It can be the most difficult one to work
on, because other courts also affect your wealth. E.g your marriage, children, career...etc can
all affect your wealth in one way or another. This court should be able to tell you how you
are most likely to gain financial wealth. It can also indicate what not to do, especially if an
individual has speculative tendencies.
The Karma Domain represents the source of the wealth. If the condition of the Karma
condition is good, then money making will be easy. But if the Wealth domain is in bad shape,
it is difficult to keep the money. Conversely, if the Karma domain is bad, and Wealth domain
condition is good, money making will take a lot of effort.
4.7
The Travel Domain
This domain documents the conditions of the external environment when we travel. It would
be best to have Benefactors in this domain, so that the subject can receive assistance when
we are outdoors. It is also necessary to access . If that domain is not good, the peers
the subject encounter are not going to be helpful.
This represents whether you will need to relocate to achieve success. It can also predict a
traffic accident.
This court affects the self court greatly because it is its opposite neighbour in the
chart. It describes your reputation. It describes how people perceive you to be; opinion of
your external self. How you are considered by others. It also describes your travel, migrations.
It can also indicate imminent accidents.
4.8
The Peers Domain
Documents disasters in human relationships, effectiveness of subordinates. This represents

the kind of peers, colleagues a person will have whether they will be helpful or not. It also
represents the relationship you have with your friends.
This court is related to the Siblings domain. Peers are your acquaintances, subordinates
at the offices, people you meet at clubs, etc. Ask the same kind of questions as in the brothers
court. The original meaning of Peers Domain in Chinese is outdated. means slave and
servant domain. Therefore, the old name is now without real significance. There is nothing
equivalent in modern Chinese to replace the old Chinese term either. Generally, the domain
describes the luck with people of the same generation/rank and the lower ranks, which include
friends, subordinates and servants altogether.
4.9
The Career Domain
Social status, suitable job. For students, this domain documents academic ability. This
represents the type of career that is most suitable for a person. It also determines the amount
of success you can expect from your chosen career.
Is your job your career? This court describes the state of your career. Are you good at
what you do. Are you successful at work? Why? Are you doing a job that suits your talent?
50
4.10
The Property Domain
Documents the family conditions when the subject is young whether family is peaceful, quarrelsome, well-to-do etc. This domain also represents the store of wealth. This represents the
property, inheritance, investments a person will own.
This describes you physical living environment to a certain extent. It also describes
your businesses, anything that you possess that is significant in value. It generally points to
relatively illiquid assets and possessions.
4.11
The Karma Domain
People with and here are a little more lazy and less motivated. This represents
the moral, spiritual, emotional aspects of a person. This tells us whether a person will live
peacefully or not.
Governs the length of life. It represents how much credits we have carried over from the
previous life and weighs upon us in terms of this lifes happiness and thinking.
This court is about your karma. Your aura. What really makes you feel happy. What are
the principles you hold. Hows your mental state of mind? It represents thinking and general
well-being of the subject as well. In , the depicts the traits in a personality
that are apparent or easily known when a person is interacted. Thinking Domain shows those
traits that are hidden from the eyes. For instance, a person may appear to be generous (Self
Domain) but in essence stingy (Thinking Domain). A more critical application will be for
checking ones integrity. Looking at only Self Domain and not Thinking Domain does not give
a complete personality profile - such is the importance of the Thinking Domain. Thinking
Domain is the most misunderstood. The Chinese term means the domain of virtue
and blessing. You would know that it is a transliteration when you see such a description in
English. The domain describes mental activities, thoughts, and those parts of a personality
that may not be manifested in apparent behaviours. It is only appropriate that it is called the
Thinking Domain in English. It does mean that in order to study a personality completely,
we have to look at both Self and Thinking Domains. Happiness, thinking.
4.12
The Parents Domain
This represents our parents and our family backgrounds.

Later in life it describes your superiors, clients, customers and your relationship with
them.
This court describes your parents when you are young, and later on it describes your
superiors, e.g. bosses, customers etc.

Domain Interactions
This chapter provides the introductory materials for interpreting the combined influence of
stars in .
5.1
Court Relationships
Although the 12 domains in are clearly defined, and they do specify clearly the
different aspects of our life for specific interpretations, we are to break the boundaries of the
12 domains for observations if we are to bring our analysis skill to a higher level for complete
results.
Hence, first of all, there is the technique of reading the entire matrix () of a certain
domain to assess its indications comprehensively. Though it may not always be accurate to
give a weight to the four domains concerned, let us use these figures to illustrate the point.
Observing Sanfang Sizheng is a basic technique in ZWDS. Sanfang means the three directions,
and Sizheng (the four positions that bring) the complete set up. I call Sanfang the Triangle,
and Sanfang Sizheng together as the Matrix.
These are generic terms, therefore for every domain, or every house, that we are looking
at, it has its own Sanfang Sizheng, the Matrix. It necessitates that the complete assessment
of a domain has to be done by looking at all four domains. Sanfang includes the domain in
reference, and the two domains in fifth positions when going both clockwise and anticlockwise
manner. The Self Domain Triangle thus, includes Self, Wealth and Career Domains. Sizheng
includes the Triangle and the domain opposite of the reference domain. Hence, the Self
Domain Matrix includes the abovementioned three, and the Travel Domain.
Take a closer look at the Matrix for every domain and you can see how the different
aspects of our life defined in ZWDS influence each other.
The main Matrix in a chart is naturally the Self Domain Matrix, and it determines the
main trends in our life - or you may term it as how lucky are we in life. Even as far as
a thousand years ago when ZWDS was first created, the rule of observing the Matrix has
already reflected how one is being gauged in life and in a society. Look at the main Matrix,
what we are in a society is determined by our personality (Self Domain), what kind of job we
have (Career Domain), how much money we have (Wealth Domain), and how well we can do
away from home (Travel Domain). The domain in question takes about a 50% to 60% share
in interpreting its meaning, depending on how many stars, and what they are in it. Then the
opposite domain plays about 25% weight, and the two apexes in the wings (of Sanfang - the
53
54
CHAPTER 5. DOMAIN INTERACTIONS
Sanhe triangle) take about 12.5% each.

Ultimately, however, we should realise that the interpretation of the 12 domains in
is like reading a life, which means that every aspects of our life is in fact interconnected,
though some aspects are more important than others.
In , we do emphasise the importance of the main matrix of , ,
and . But who is to say that is less important, or for that matter, or
?
Therefore, after getting well versed with the definition of the 12 domains, and the technique
of observing , we have to keep in mind that every domain may affect the overall
outcome of an interpretation.
For instance, with the right (or wrong?) conditions, a bad Peers Domain may affect the
outcome of an expected achievement interpreted from a good matrix.
Conversely, a good may rescue a lacklustre matrix if one is in a business
that serves children.
Therefore, it is an art to take the full view of the chart to have a comprehensive analysis
for the purpose of maximising the information available.
The stars within the courts affect the properties of the life aspects. And the stars in
related courts can also affect the life aspects in lesser ways.
Stars in courts that are located in trinity to each other, affect each other.
Stars in opposite courts also affect each other.
Hence one can conclude that some aspects of your life are related.
E.g. Self is related to your and (trinity courts), and related to your
(opposite court). Which is logical, because these are the courts directly influenced by you.
Commentary This shows the key interpretation technique of . One will never
understand the true power of if one does not get familiarised with their applications.
5.1. COURT RELATIONSHIPS
55
Commentary First, the Mirroring Technique from Zhong Zhou Sect. It is used when a
domain is found to be void of the 14 Major Stars (from the Emperor to the Forward
General Pojun). Regardless of how many other stars are present in a domain, when a domain
is void of any of the 14 Major Stars, we have to use the stars present in the opposite domain.
All the stars in the two groups of 73 stars (32 plus 41, in yellow fonts in the slide) found in
the opposite domain must be mirrored into the domain to be interpreted. Merely mirroring
the first 14 Major Stars, as it is widely taught, is wrong.
56
Commentary The next three slides illustrate the Mirroring Technique. The Siblings
Domain in the chart is void of Major Stars. The pair of Trouble Stars - Turmoil Star
and Turbulence Star , are found to be placed in the and respectively.
They are not the 14 Major Stars, but part of the 32 Main Stars. They are the Adverse Stars
that are the most menacing to human relationships.
Commentary In this chart, on the surface, three human relationship domains are negatively affected (in red) but not all five domains, if we do not mirror Turbulence Star Lingxing
into the Siblings Domain which is void of the Major Stars. It therefore means
that the and are not affect by the pair of Trouble Stars. This is the wrong
interpretation result.
5.1. COURT RELATIONSHIPS
57
Commentary When we mirror Turbulence Star into the Siblings Domain according
to the correct application of the Mirroring Technique, we will have the correct interpretation
result that all human relationship domains in this chart are ruined by the stars. The two that
suffer the most impacts are the and , the latter because of the flanking effect.
Commentary Next, look out for the locations of stars that come in pairs. When a pair
of stars are found in the Matrix, they give synergy. In this illustration, the Left Deputy
58
and the Right Deputy each affects the domains where they are placed, but the domain
represent by the star symbol gets the most benefits.
Commentary This means that the interpretation of a chart must not be done
on individual domains only. In this illustration, Domain directly shows what industry
or what sector is good for the subject, whether it is appropriate for him/her to take up a
business or stay employed. However, his/her luck with money () also has a major
influence on the job/business he takes on, while his/her personality () also plays a vital
part in his/her rate of success in certain fields of job/business.
5.2. COMPREHENSIVE TRENDS

Comprehensive Trends
Commentary - These four domains form - the Matrix. They reveal the aggregate
strength (luck) of destiny we have in this life.
5.3
Wealth Level Analysis
60
Commentary - To assess how wealthy one can be, we have to also include the interpretation
of Estates Domain as it represents wealth beyond liquid cash.
5.4
Empty Domain
When a domain is void of Major Stars, it is considered weakened in the sense that the person
has less control of the events relevant to that domain, as compared to another who has stars
there. Next, we read all the Main and almost all of the Secondary Stars (refer to my other
thread for the grouping) present in the opposite house.
5.5
Earth Branches of the Domains
The earthly animals in the chart have fixed locations while the location of the 12 palaces
discussed above depends upon the date of birth of the person. Thus, the Life Palace could
be in the Tiger square or Horse square or in any other squares.
About EB, Its how it affect the stars in the palace as every stars has its ying or yang
polarity and its interaction with the palace. Also the stars characteristic like Tai-yan which
like to be in the Day* palaces Yin, Mao, Chen, etc. Tai-yin in the night palaces, Shen,
You, xu, etc.This all would affect stars brightness or dimness, whether it could bring out its
potentials or stifen it.
About Stems and Branches - The Five Elements of the Branches sometimes do come into
play beyond only for Taiyang and Taiyin. For instance, Tanlang the Pleasure Star is about
attraction luck, taohua. When it is being placed in Chen/Xu/Chou/Wei - the Four Tombs
(Earth), its taohua nature is being reduced because the star is being constrained there.
Otherwise, the Stems are used mainly for deciding the position of the flying stars for
periodic charts.
A palace is affected or is most influenced by the adjacent palaces, the opposite palace and
the related harmony palaces.
Looking at the chart can say that the Life Palace is influenced by:
the adjacent palaces (Parents and Siblings Palaces) the opposite palace (Travel Palace)
the related harmony palace (Career and Wealth Palaces)
Do you not agree that the life of a person is shaped by the persons parents and siblings?
The way you are brought up by your parents will determine how you become in society. This
will lead to the type of career you will pursue and whether the chosen career will lead to
generating your income be it stable income or not or whether you need to move away from
your birthplace to make a living.
When there are no major stars in a palace thats being analyzed, the major stars in the
opposite palace is then examined as if the stars there are actually in the palace being analyzed.
This is because the opposite palace is like a mirror image of the palace being analyzed. These
two palaces have the strongest influenced on each other.
If you are analyzing the Happiness Palace, the palaces that have influenced to it are the
Wealth Palace (opposite), the Marriage and Travel palaces(related harmony), the Property
and Parents palace (adjacent).
Peoples luck change as time goes by. Some enjoy several years of good luck. Some suffer
bad luck year after year. This is because the palaces rotate around the chart.
5.5. EARTH BRANCHES OF THE DOMAINS
61
Like the four pillars of destiny, a person has 10 year luck chart and annual luck chart.
A persons first 10 year luck chart is the same as the original natal chart. The second 10
year luck chart has the Life Palace either occupying the Parents Palace or Siblings Palace
depending upon the polarity of the person (yin male/female or yang male/female). The other
palaces move one place following the Life Palace. This rotation in the chart causes our luck
to change.

Chinese Terms
Chinese literature distinguishes several ways for stars MEETING each other in the
chart; this section is aimed at addressing that issue. Usually, when stars are said to meet in
the english treatise, they are to be taken to mean stars that are present in the Matrix. Those
able to read the chinese text will note what follows. Advanced material distinguishes between
the following positional interactions of the stars:
zuòsh
ou Sitting. It refers to the presence of a Major Star in a domain.
tongd`
u Placed together. It refers to stars present in the same domain.
tongg
ong Same house. It also refers to stars present in the same domain.
zhào Shining (onto). It is the short form, and the combined meaning, of (gongzhao)
and (huizhao). See the next two entries.
gòngzh`
ao Shining on each other. It refers to stars in opposite houses.
hu`zh`
ao Meeting. It refers stars present in Sanfang, or the Sanhe Triangle.
or xi
angji
a or ji
a Flanking, clipping. It refers to the resulting effect of the stars
present in the adjacnet house on either side of any particular house/domain.
jiàn Seeing (each other). It refers to stars present in the Matrix, or .
chong Clashing. It means the interaction of stars in the to create or activate an
effect. Its meaning is different from that used in Ziping Bazi, because it can mean an
auspicious effect in . See the next two entries.
chongq Activating (an effect). It usually means an auspicious effect, but not always so.
chongp`
o Destroying (an effect). It always means producing an inauspicious effect, and
refers to the presence of an Adverse Star or a bad effect star spoiling a good formation.

The Fourteen Major Stars
The 14 Major Stars are the closest to the North celestial pole and were regarded as
the most essential stars. These fourteen stars form the North and South Dipper in ancient
chinese astronomy. As a group, they are diversified in their traits, each with their distinctive
attributes. In order to fully understand and have a feel for these stars in reading, it will be
helpful to personify the stars to get an intuition for the stars personalities.
These 14 Major Stars sets the general scene for interpretation. Each star can be perceived
as a major character in a performance, governing different aspects of our lives depending on
which domains they influence. The impact is felt across the entire life, with different emphasis
and effects in different time frames.
Every Major Star has a varied and diversified range of characteristics. They are just like
people. We do not find an absolute saint or a total evil that often among us, do we? One
observation on how they manifest themselves is how bright they are. Otherwise we must
not take a single facet of their qualities as their only characteristics. Therefore, Tanlang the
Pleasure Star has as much positive qualities as negative qualities.
That being said, traditionally, meaning in classic texts, Jumen the Dimming Star and
Pojun the Forward General usually get more negative comments than others. This is because
the old Chinese society prefers humility and settledness, which are not exactly the qualities
that these two stars excel in. Conversely, Tianfu the Finance Minister traditionally gets the
most praises as it represents stability.
(Polaris) Emperor
As the first star and the leader of the pact, Ziwei can be likened to a ruler, the ultimate in
power. The Emperor (or King, depending on your culture) is most apt for describing its traits.
( Sagittarii) Heavenly Strategy in Chinese
The word Tian, meaning Heaven, which is found in many other stars too, is simply a noble
way to name something in Chinese. Tianji is a star of many ideas and thoughts, but lacks
the stature of a leader, therefore it can be likened to the advisor who serves the Emperor.
Sun
Symbol - humane, idealistic, bright, with many ideas to contribute, extreme, and active.
67
68
CHAPTER 7. THE FOURTEEN MAJOR STARS
Person - for a man-representing his father, himself, his son, his male friend, and superior.
for a woman-representing her father, her spouse and her son. It also represents politician,
guardian, and principal. Body - eyes, face, blood and intestines.
Moon
Symbol - soft, romantic, clean, and observant. For a male subject -represents his mother,
his spouse, his secretary and his daughter. for a woman-represents her mother, herself, and
her daughter. It also represents fortuneteller, prostitute, and moonlighter. Body - skin, the
womb, and urethra.
(27 Ysgr) Heavenly Treasury in Chinese
Symbol - real, self-assertive, splendid, and neat. Person - treasurer, distributor, and planner.
Body - stomach.
(Merak) Great Gate in Chinese
Symbol - analytical, creative, researching, self-reliant, talkative, controversial, and suspicious. Person - lecturer, broadcaster, lawyer, geometrician, psychoanalyst, performing artist
and thief. Body - mouth and throat.
(Alkaid) Broken Army
Symbol - impatient, innovative, risk-taking, forward, and confronting. Person - pioneer, sailor,
mountaineer, and front-liner. Body - reproductive organs and excretory organs.
(Mizar) Defence Minster
Symbol - straight, unbiased, strong-willed, systematic, and impassive. Person - martial artist,
inspector and banker. Body - nose, respiratory organs, and lungs. A direct translation from
Chinese will mean military music. Wuqu is about righteousness, action oriented, and steadfastness.
Contentment
Tong means agreement, thus it represents peacefulness and harmony. The star is about taking
life easy, being passive and non-antagonising, and hence, contentment is acquired easily. It
possesses the traits of going for comfort and pleasure in life.
(Alioth)
Symbol - recalcitrant, free thinking, sentimental, seeking self-improvement, and a little psychopathic. Person - justice, soldier, traveller, masseur, risk-taker, and prisoner. Body intestines and pimples. It is very difficult to use one name to personify its diverse qualities.
In fact, Lianzhen in Chinese - chastity and honesty hardly give a clue to what it actually
means. Perhaps perceiving as a consummate politician may be apt, where the outward
colourful predisposition belies a potentially wicked inner nature. This star is primarily about
emotions, money, and blood, but more about the indulgence in feelings and emotions. Although all of them carry a diverse range of traits, some of them are more complex than others.
Lianzhen is basically artistic, passionate, and very emotion-driven, and it can represent luck
with reference to wealth, blood or feelings. Moreover, Lianzhen is also very sensitive to other
Major Stars and Main Stars (the supporting cast of Auspicious Star, Adverse Stars, and the
Enhancers) present, therefore, sometimes, merely looking at Lianzhen alone cannot reveal
69
enough information. Lianzhen is one of the two major stars that experience the greatest shift
in gamut when found in a good versus a wanting star field.
(Dubhe)
Symbol - generous, impatient, spontaneous, amorous, selfish, risk-taking, entertaining, and
day dreamer. Person - entertainer, teacher, priest, guest relations officer and gambler. Body
- genitals. Tanlang carries a very wide range of qualities too. While it may be the most
materially/physically indulgent, it has also the quality to be very spiritual. Tanlang is one
that has the most natural inclination to metaphysics too. With Lianzhen, it is one of the two
major stars that can exhibit bipolar behavior - it can also be selfish and accommodating at
the same time.
(40 r sgr) Prime Minister
Symbol - faithful, humane, friendly, cultured and with very good sense of aesthetics. Person
- premier and high standing official. Body - lower part of body. In terms of personality, can
indicate inherent clashes within oneself, confusing between being powerful and powerless at
the same time. It is also the Major Star that is the most sensitive to San He flanking effect the aggregate influence by the stars placed in the immediate houses on its left and right.
Great Sage
The Great Sage carries a either a nature of provision or punishment. It can also be known as
the Problem Solving Star as it can attract many problems like a magnet.
The rich spread of the personalities embodied by Major Stars of spans a rich
gamut, and provides an interesting and sufficiently rich backdrop with which we can paint
the destiny of a person. The following sections provide a detailed analysis of each stars
character, and with forms the foundational analysis for a student to perform chart
analysis.
70
7.1
Zi Wei Emperor
The representative of this star is the eldest son of Zhou Wen Wang (), Bo Yi().
Heavy, strong and full appearance. The subject is honest, modest, polite and frank. Though
at the same time the subject is pretentious and easy to be affected by the words from other
people. The one is capricious, suspicious, narrow-minded, acts impetuously rather easily.
, of Earth element, is the leader of all the stars; the chinese name for this star is
the basis for the name of this numerological system. Where it falls in the subject chart represents one area of main focus; where the subject may also come across as demanding and
imperial.
It represents dignity and esteem. Likening to an emperor personifies the quality of high
ambition, far-sightedness, pride, power and might. It represents a strong character person in
Self Domain. It is one of the two natural leaders among the 14 Major Stars. However, its
capacity to lead shall depend on other stars present in the Matrix ().
To appreciate how the star structure in affects , imagine a Chinese Imperial
court. For the Emperor to realise his vision and plans, he will need his team. The constitution of the team affects the Emperors effectiveness and ability to rule. With this in mind,
we can classify the matrix into four grades, by looking at what stars are present in the Matrix.
The most esteemed structure consists of a court filled with good officials in the matrix. It
indicates an Emperor who is strongly supported. Preferably with stars that occur in pairs are
both present, for instance, the Left Deputy and the Right Deputy both appearing
in the Matrix. It is equally good when the pair-stars are placed in the two adjacent houses
on either side of the domain. The placements of pair-stars in the two adjacent houses create
the Flanking Effect, which exerts great influence to the domain concerned too. A team as
such paves the way for an illustrious and brilliant career for the Emperor.
Next, we have the grade of a capable ruler. It is an Emperor who finds Auspicious Stars
(good officials) and Inauspicious Stars (bad officials) both present in the Matrix. However,
the Auspicious Stars have to outnumber the Adverse Stars. The presence of imperial subordinates ensures that the ruler is capable of achievements.
An isolated Emperor is one who gets no subordinates at all. This means that both the
Auspicious Stars and the Adverse Stars are absent in the Matrix. It is like an Emperor who
roams the wilderness alone without any accompanying officials. For a personality, this indicates one who holds pride, vision and ideology dearly, but without any assistance, these
dreams cannot be brought to fruition.
7.1. ZI WEI EMPEROR
71
The worst grade is a despotic ruler occurs when his imperial court is void of Auspicious
Stars for assistance, but rather, many or all of the Adverse Stars are present in the matrix.
There can be some achievement in life, but they will be overshadowed by many failures, or
drastic failures. In , it indicates the negative personality traits typically associated with
a person in power, such as arrogance, prejudice, being extremely opinionated, dominating
and generally unreasonable.
In summary, does not fear the effects of adverse stars, rather it is the lack of able
assistants to carry out his grand visions that is worrying.
The less appropriate domains to be placed with the Emperor are the interpersonal
relationship domains, because it generally means that the opposite party will be stronger and
more capable than the subject will. A good in these domains nevertheless means that
the opposite party can be relied upon. But a bad Ziwei in these domains indicates that the
opposite party can be extremely authoritative. Logically, therefore, it is the worst for Peers
Domain to have a bad Emperor Star because one would never possibly exert control over
his/her subordinates.
in the Domain means the ability to spend like a king. It does suggest generosity
towards others too. However, whether one is really rich or merely appear to be rich shall
depend on other stars.
If it falls into , there is a tendency to marry someone that wants to be treated like
a king or queen!
7.1.1
Characteristics of the Star
Appearance
1. The figure is heavy, strong and full appearance. Favoured colours are purple and yellow.
2. The one is experienced, modest and polite. He is smart but cannot insist personal idea
firmly. He has no insistence but likes to dominate everything.
Characters
1. Restrict and reconcile, solve the distress
(a) Restrict and reconcile: It can reduce the influence of the Sha stars.
(b) Solve the distress: It can solve the distress of bad things. It can increase good
lucky to change the disadvantageous matters.
2. Toleration: It can solve the distress for the things that you wish not to meet.
Thinking
Eternity The light of the Dipper is not apparent, yet it is eternal and immobile. It always
guides the lost away from dangerous place. Even though a comet has strong light, it
can only get a blink of praise.
Modesty Since time immemorial, those who boasted shooting will die in shooting; boasted
in swimming will die in swimming. The bamboo is praised for modesty though it is
hollow.
72
Haughtiness is an emperor star. If the subject is too presumptuous and considers

himself to be an emperor, his happiness and luck cannot be lasting. People should
have high and valued wish, lay the basis for future relationship and enjoy the lowest
happiness and fortune. This is the best way for that one.

73
Destiny Domain
1. Possesses special skill or potential.

2. The possibility of the miscarriage or dystocia for the subject is greater then other people.
In , a good Emperor is magnanimous and rules with elegance, while a bad Emperor
leads a deteriorating and degrading life. However, a common trait is that an emperor carries
emotions of extreme proportions. Imagine that an emperor is capable of showering someone
with all the imperial favour, while equally capable of executing someone he abhors. People
with this star in their Ming palace love praise and demand loyalty. They can be conceited
and easily influenced, which can make them permissive and tolerant. They have tender egos
but will often not disclose their feelings.
is a dominant star, but it possess little of its own character. It is heavily dependent
on the influence of other stars personalities.
The location of the is key to identifying one of the dominant areas of the subjects
life. Which aspect is most important to you? Which aspect of your life consumes you most?
Who overshadows you? Normally people with in their tend to be known for their
work. Others, will be known for their famous parents, or famous kids, while others are known
for their successful businesses....etc.
People with in tend to have these set of qualities:
1. Natural leadership capabilities. How they use their leadership and what kind of leaders
they make will largely depend on how the is affected by the other stars.
2. Normally the dominant person in the family, often the most accomplished.
3. Big ambitions, and thrive on challenges.
4. Are capable, and reliable and competent especially in what they like to do.
5. Tend to have big ego.
6. May lead a solitary life, like a monk or priest. This depends on the location: e.g if
located in or courts.
Like all rulers, its effectiveness depends on the characters and personalities of the other
stars in his vicinity. He is very much dependent on the arrangement of the other stars in the
same or related courts:
1. with and/or are, is effective, and successful. His life is easy because of
support. Without them, he will have to do without much support, in isolation.
2. with , he can get very successful and prosperous.
3. The wealth of has a significant effect on . Related to , has the capacity
to create wealth.
4. at Court, he is loved by people, and romantic.
5. at or courts, he might be a hopeless romantic, or an isolated leader, like monk or
priest.

6. With inauspicious stars like and , he tends to be unreasonable and unfair.
7. in and courts, with good transformations, his success will be outstanding.
8. in and courts, he tend to be disloyal, and flirtatious.
9. in and Courts, he can be rich if is wealthy. Otherwise his power hungry
character will be reckless and brittle.
10. in and Courts, he will have natural leadership qualities, but has a strong ego and
craves power. Whether he uses his power in a good or bad way depends on the influence
of other stars.
11. in and Courts, with good stars and influences, this can be a chart of a high ranking
politician, or business person, otherwise it influence the person to be aggressive due to
frustrations and power-hunger.
7.1.3
Siblings Domain
If has good associations with other constellations, much help and support will be derived
from them. subject may become the sort that lives off others, and/or may hav a nagging feeling
of lagging behind. Siblings may be helpful but want to be treated like the emperor/empress
and so may not get along.
1. Has an elder brother.
2. When the star meets , will have three to four brothers.
7.1.4
Spouse Domain
Spouse dominates the household. Spouse is capable, and independent, but relationship depends on influence of . If has good influence, subject may benefit from your spouse
leadership abilities, otherwise he may suffer from having a tyrannical partner. The subjects
spouse wants to be treated like an emperor or empress. This can cause dissatisfaction for the
subject.
1. For a male subject: wife is virtuous and has the sense of responsibility.
2. When the star meets , the subject enjoys a happy relationship with the spouse.
3. When the star meets , it means the marriage might have obstacles.
7.1.5
Children Domain
As in Brothers and Peers Courts, the Children / employees / followers / students will be
strong, capable, successful, domineering. Relationship with them depends on the influence
of positive or negative stars surrounding. Few children. They have poise, but are difficult to
teach because they have their own ideas. Daughter first and then get a son.

Wealth Domain
Money can come from status, power. Subject likes to spend. Whether or not the subject will

7.2. TIAN JI HEAVENLY MACHINE
7.2
77
Tian Ji Heavenly Machine
()
The representative for this star is Jiang Ziya(), who was military strategist for King
Wen() and assisted King Wen with conquering his states. Jiang Ziya was known for his
kindnesss, wisdom and gentle nature. He has long and thin face and moderate figure. He is
not tall but not short. Yet, he is quick-tempered, oversensitive and sentimental.
Tianji, of Wood element, represents kindness and rules the Siblings Domain. This star
is chiefly about wit, adaptability, and changes. For a person, it means the most intelligent,
and possibly the most learned, among the Fourteen Major Stars.
A Tianji person is quick witted, learns fast and thinks fast, and is capable of multi-tasking.
He is an analyst, a planner, and a strategist all in one. However, it does not possess the stature
of a leader. An ultimate leader does not need to be intelligent, but he must be decisive, strong,
and steadfast. Tianji the Chief Advisor represents the opposite. For this reason, it is not
advisable for Tianji to go into traditional business, especially in sole-proprietorship.
Other than the fundamental observation of how bright it is, the main assessment for Tianji
the Chief Advisor is whether it gets to meet the Status Star and the Reputation
Star. They provide it with many opportunities in life, in addition status and reputation. A
wise brain needs the right opportunities to shine and gain recognition.
A principle of is balance. Therefore, it is not that appropriate when Tianji the
Chief Advisor gets to meet the Literacy Star or the Eloquence Star. Wenchang and
Wenqu represent talent and intelligence too. combined with and is considered
unbalanced. However, it is fine if it is placed with Tiancai , and and , because
these stars represent talent in special skills.
As is not as strong as a true leader, it is considerably negative when it gets to meet
the Adverse Stars and the Negative Enhancer. These stars would expose its weaknesses,
including indecisiveness, fickle-mindedness and inconsistency. You can notice well that these
descriptions are the negative manifestations of those same qualities that we have talked about.
The Adverse Stars would also make life considerably hard for a person, as compared with
for people of the Major Stars of more steely nature.
Since the Chief Advisor is about changes, it is basically not too appropriate to be
placed in Wealth Domain and Properties Domain. Changes means impermanence, and thus
the connotation of coming and going nature, and it is not the best description for wealth and
assets.
The coming and going nature, manifests in the Peers Domain too, therefore, it pays for
78
a business person to take note of this characteristics, as one must be prepared for the quick
turnover rate of subordinates. In Siblings, Love and Offspring Domains, it also means that
the counterpart is witty and adaptable. For and Offspring Domains, it also usually
means few in number. However, the meaning of changes may not bid well for Love Domain
and .
One of the following descriptions would surely manifest when Tianji the Chief Advisor
is placed in the Domain: The job entails multi-tasking or is of a multi-responsibility
nature; often-changing jobs or professions; holding more than one job at a time.
The star is a dynamic, thinking star. It is seldom sitting still. In the Courts that
it sits in, it causes change. Often the changes are minor, but disruptive. in a palace
indicates much change and instability.
The best way to deal with , is to go with its flow, by taking measures against early
long term commitments, or avoiding jobs that are too routine.

3. Hiding the talent and ability is the prelude of success. The one must brew his energy
and take the frustration as a test. He should conserve energy and build up strength for
using in the future.
It is the easiest to understand the characteristics of Taiyang because we can associate it

with the real astral body. In , , of Yang Fire element, represents status and
honour.
Think of the sun in our solar system, and we can visualise several basic traits of Taiyang.
We know where it is positioned exactly according to the time of the day every day. Its position
cannot be changed, and this implies steadfastness. All life forms on earth have benefited from
its heat and light, and this implies that Taiyang is more of a provider than a taker. Everyone
on earth does not always appreciate the heat given by the sun in the day, and this implies
that Taiyang will always have some detractors.
The primary assessment of the Sun is its brightness according to its position in
relation to the time (hour) represented by the twelve Earthly Branches of the twelve houses
in the chart. It is bright when it is placed in houses from to , because the Earthly
Branches of these houses represent daylight hours. It is dim when it is placed in houses from
to , because the Branches here represent nightfall. The previously mentioned basic traits
of Taiyang are fully valid for it in the daylight houses, and especially pronounced in and
(houses because it is the brightest here. To enjoy the brightness and status of the Sun fully,
a person has to be born in daylight hours too. Otherwise, these descriptions are somewhat
reduced for someone who is born at night.
For a Taiyang placed in dim positions, its steadfastness remains present though not as
apparent. However, the other two traits are reduced to a lower degree because it is not giving
as much light and heat at night: Life is less of a burden because it is providing less; and it
has fewer detractors because it attracts less attention. But the catch here is that Taiyang the
Sun in dim houses gets less recognition too. Again, a person who is born at night is worse off
for a dim Sun, than one who is born in the day.
As the other ultimate leader besides the Emperor Star, the grades of the Sun is
also assessed according to how many aides it has in the basic structure, and whether both
the Auspicious Stars that come in pairs are present together in the Matrix. When a bright
Taiyang has perfect combinations of supporting casts, it can be even more outstanding than a
Ziwei that has them. This is because it is the basic nature of Taiyang the Sun to shine, while
7.3. TAI YANG SUN
85
Ziwei the Emperor is not as much exposed due to its high self esteem and pride. However,
the presence of Adverse Stars can cause bad results from being outstanding.
And, again identical to the Emperor Star, it is best to place it in Domain, which
indicates a bright and shining career. This is especially so in and houses. , however,
is not its best position because the star is more about status and reputation than wealth.
Whether in Self or Wealth Domain, Taiyang the Sun always indicates some form of financial
burden or bearing extra financial duty, because the star is about giving/providing. Estates
Domain is not suitable either because the Sun is continuously on the move, however, this
nature is good for Domain, and it indicates that one gets recognition easily overseas.
In relationship domains, Taiyang the Sun always suggests that it is easier to have frictions
with male counterparts, namely, husband for a woman, and father, son, and male friends for
both genders. It may be at a minimum when the Sun is in bright houses, but it is obvious
when it is in dim houses, or when the person is born at night.
The Sun The symbolism of the Sun is expansive and expressive, but can also indicate
an area where we are boastful and blunt.
People with in the tend to have these set of qualities:
1. independent, open-minded, and status conscious.
2. elegant, benevolent, and has an air of sophistication, in courts where is bright and
associated with helpful assistant stars.
3. less elegant, more hungry for recognition and calculative, in courts where the is
dim.
4. tendency to be extravagant and showy, and most likely to stand out from the crowd.
5. display the better star qualities when born in the daytime 3am-3pm.
6. tend not to have good relationship with the father; especially so for those born at night.
7. can expect a degree of fame / status and fortune, if born in the daytime, in bright court
and surrounded by good helper stars.
is an described as showy, benevolent, generous, Masculine, Open-minded, Elegant.
Influenced by other stars can change the character of this star. Tai Yang can be generalized
like so:
1. with positively artistic stars like and , he elegant and generous. He is well
regarded by others as a shining example. In bright courts, he can hold high status.
2. with more destructive stars like , , his actions are always seen in a negative
light; he will face difficulties, and will go about in any way to gain attention.

8. : His is over confident, extravagant. It can be good or bad depending on the other
stars.
9. : He is being influenced by , which is his opposite. He tends to be unpredictable
and uncertain about how to react to situations.
10. : enthuisiatic and talkative. He is brighter in the Yin Court, there hell be more
effective with his actions and words.
11. : He is bright. With good influences, his powers will shine.
12. : He is dim. Fame is not likely though he can be successful monetarily. He is also
less generous and more extravagant.
The is the Sun. It is warm, sophisticated, generous. Its power is its ability to project
itself and get famous. In courts where this star is dim, and/or affected by harmful stars, it is
likened to be a sun on a cloudy day - ineffective.
To a certain extent, represents husband and/or father to a female, and self to a male
subject.
, , and are harmful to . Their influence may bring about undisciplined sex and substance abuse, overspending, vanity and poor relationships.
The best way to deal with , is to allow its strengths to flourish. If it is not strong,
use the qualities of the neighboring stars in the structure to help it along.

The representative of this star is the successor of Wen Wang(), his son Chou Wu Wang(
). He is the god of fortune and handles wealth, bravery and longevity. Yet it is a star
of widowed nature, so it is not good for a woman. The one will have white face, wide forehead, rough brows, hard hair, sturdy character, honesty and personal loyalty, straightforward
temper, new ideas at any time, systematization in work.

special power will appear and is benefit to the wealth.
(e) Si Hua (is sensitive to Si Hua)

benefit in military service
benefit in civil service
can earn the money but cannot save it

III Logic 1. If the star meets in the same palace, the one will have good wealth; if
the star meets , then the one will be bankrupt. The one is firm in behavior and does not
hesitate in making decisions. The one seldom reminds the passing things, but looks into the
future. So it will be benefit for him to have correct judgement, if not he will fail. The key
point is that he needs a brain trust and good friends.
2. If the star is in the palace, the one will be hurt by villains. Please pay attention
to making friends.
3. The big reason that influences wealth is the happiness and luck, the second reason is
will and career. Losing great fortune will influence the strategy and thoughts for the future.
No fortune, no happiness. To start an enterprise or take up an occupation must depend on
your wealth and then match up with interest, will and the background of expertise.
The star is the finance manager. It is also metal, which had a brittle character. Other
stars will affect its attitude towards money making. If structure is good, hell be skilled at
investments. Otherwise he may get reckless and lose everything. He may even get into a
violent situation if structure is too brittle. In some instances, military career is suitable.
also has a special quality of being multi-skilled. This is especially so in the presence
of Puo Jun and/or and . In this case, he can make a career in creative occupations
like performance arts.
7.4.3
Destiny Domain
is the hardworking army general. This star can accumulate wealth through labour. These
people can have successful careers but, like a general, they make decisions on their own and
prefer to give orders, not take them. They are workaholics, can be cold-hearted, and find it
difficult to maintain close relationships. They are opinionated and strong. Women with
in their Ming Gong often lead their husbands and are competitive with men. (1)The one
can own fortune by working hard. The job must relate to economics and metal. (2)Suitable
for the job of military, police the Military Minister is one of the three wealth stars, and
also one of the three fighters. This is because it is of Metal property, and weaponry and
ancient coins were both made of metal.
Although it does represent wealth, as a fighter, is quick and vigorous, and it is action
oriented. The other two wealth stars are Tianfu the Finance Minister and Taiyin the Moon.
Tianfu is conservative while Taiyin is quiet and it focuses more on planning, therefore, among
the three wealth stars, Wuqu is more likened to be a businessperson - one who takes action
and acts fast for acquiring wealth. Therefore, we can understand that it is best to be placed in
Domain, and it is the star that benefits best from the presence of Lucun the Treasurer
or Hualu the Flow Enhancer. With the presence of Tiankui the Status Star and Tianyue the
Reputation Star, while provided that there are no Adverse Stars present, Wuqu in Self Domain
indicates the capacity to be a powerful figure in the finance world. Without the presence of
Lucun the Treasurer, Hualu the Flow Enhancer, and other Auspicious Stars, quick thinking
and quick actions do not assure successes for Wuqu the Military Minister.
On the other hand, quick and vigorous nature could easily be the cause of disastrous
failures when finds Adverse Stars present in its Matrix. Therefore, it is the Major Star
that gets greater negative impact from Huaji the Negative Enhancer and Adverse Stars more
than other Major Stars does.
As a wealth star, it is good to be placed in the Domain and the Estates Domain
too. In Career Domain, an auspicious represents business acumen and assures success in
7.4. WU QU GENERAL
91
business, or the financial sector.

The inappropriate domains to place are the Domain and the interpersonal
relationship domains. The English name I have given serves to remind that it is more apt for
the Military Minister to stay in the imperial court near where the emperor is, which means
that one needs to strive harder when away from home when it is placed in the Travel Domain.
The tough character and quick nature of Wuqu is another reason, for it suggests that tact is
lacking when interacting with others.
And, its tough character is the main reason the Military Minister is an inauspicious
star in interpersonal relationship domains. Its worst placement is in the Love Domain. Here,
it definitely needs the presence of Auspicious Stars to reduce or alter the negative effect in
order to have a fine relationship and an ordinary marriage.
The Army General, Dance represents military authority. In your palace,
this star can bring prosperity and a successful career. However, those with this star in their
first house can be the type who gives orders easier than taking them!

4. For female

5. Si-Hua
or the one will be active and aggressive.
the one might be lazy than before, though it brings edible and salary
though the one will be busy, yet the one is not afraid of malignant deity. So the
one must be an optimist.
III Logic
1. Good fortune: No matter smart or fool, the god might arrange good ways for them.
When a new one does not how to carry out, the god will give him good fortune to help
him. To skillful people, the good fortune will be withdrawn, and the technique will be
increased to supply the shortage of good fortune.
2. Intelligence: Some artists have plenty of spirit life but shortage of substance. It is not
easy to have good fortune and intelligence at the same time. Common people have
thick happiness, the ingenious people have thin happiness. The intelligent star such as
and , it is absolutely not hua-lu.
3. and disasters: Happiness might hide disasters and disasters must be the dependence of happiness. Do not be arrogant and do bad thing due to having authority,
otherwise the disasters might come.
4. Content: means not content to the reality. Happy is he who is content. Then he
will not be insulted in lifetime. For the salary, commanding officer, or elders, content
still is the suitable for the one facing to these people.
Tiantong is one of the two Major Stars that are well liked by the traditional Chinese
society because it is peaceful and non-antagonising. It is of Yang Water and it represents
blessings, or blessedness. The other Major Star that gets all the praises is Tianfu the Finance
Minister. In a feudal society, an element in the society must be conforming and not rebellious.
Tiantong the Contentment Star is not so much about being a conformist, but it definitely is
easy going.
For the 14 Major Stars other than the Sun and the Moon, which need no explanation in their names, I have preferred to personify the rest when giving them English names.
However, out of the twelve stars, there are four that are not easy to do it. If I were to stick
with naming Tiantong as an officer, it can be likened to one who takes charge of dining and
entertainment for the Emperor. Obviously, there is no common name in English for such an
appointment, but from the description, it will help one to remember that Tiantong is about
going for fine taste and pleasure in life, and not about fighting for achievements in life, or to
conquer life. And, by adding the English word contentment, one would have a good grasp of
its basic traits.
97
Basically, Tiantong the Contentment Star is the least driven to go for high achievements
in life, unless what the person enjoys doing much does provide room for achievement. This
implies that a Tiantong person has to go into trades that he/she loves in the first place. It
could be food and beverages, hospitality trades, beauty trades, the music industry, and so
on, and I realise that an area in the modern world could allow many young Tiantong people
to be accommodated: the computer gaming industry.
Some classic texts described a Tiantong structure that is placed with Lucun the Treasurer
and Hualu the Flow Enhancer as excellent. I beg to differ, if it is not a structure that comes
with Tiankui and Tianyue, the pair of Auspicious Stars that brings great opportunities. If
Tiantong the Contentment Star person is blessed with double Lu (Lucun and Hualu) but
not Tiankui and Tianyue, the subject can become too indulgent in emotions and hobbies,
without determination or any fighting spirit. Rather, it is good to have an Adverse Star in its
structure to provide it with stimulant and drive. Alternatively, a better Tiantong is one that
is attached with Huaquan the Power Enhancer, and the combination makes a person more
pragmatic.
A special feature of Tiantong when it is placed in the Self//Triangle (Sanfang) is that there are many chances in life to strike out into some hobby business from
scratch, and I call it the start-anew nature.
In interpersonal relationship domains, the blessedness of Tiantong indicates generally
good bonding with the counterparts, except in Love Domain, where its start-anew nature
may also rule, suggesting bad omen for marriage. Thus, Tiantong the Contentment Star in
Love Domain does not give a straightforward analysis.
The star is a happy-go-lucky star. It lacks direction and a sense of urgency to get
anything done, or to control anything. Often people with the in their main Courts, like
Self, , , find it difficult to come to terms with the fact that good things come
with adversity.
This is because while harmful transformation by , and harmful stars cause him stress
and difficulties, they also help make this star more disciplined and better able to progress.
Good stars and transformations make him happy, but he may not get anywhere in life and
develop unhealthy habits, like promiscuity, substance abuse...etc.
also makes it difficult to stick to commitments, so late marriages is advised, or if the
marriage has recovered from a bad patch, chances are, itll be good later on.
is good in the Karma Court. Its nice to have a stress-free mind!
1. emotionally volatile.
2. opportunistic, pleasure seeking.
3. capable (especially in the case of females), gentle, easy going.
4. longevity; in the presence of helpful stars.
5. lazy and complacent, unless in the presence of harmful stars like and , or
transformed by . These stars and transformation are harmful, but makes less
complacent.
6. A good structure surrounding the Self court may indicate a lack of ambition, pleasure
seeker.
98
is an described as emotional, pleasurseeking, happy-go-lucky, lacking ambition, sentimental Influenced by other stars he can use his mental abilities for different motives.
can be generalised like so:
1. with positively artistic stars like and , artistic, flirty, very sensitive and emotional. If there are no harmful stars around, he gets lazy and complacent.
2. with more destructive stars like , , bucks up and is more thoughtful.
3. , at his darkest, can be overly emotional.
4. at and court, he is a bright star. He is able to enjoy life and make use of opportunities. However, if there is a transformation to , or / Huo Ling he may face
difficulties of an emotional nature; but that may make him more hard working at the
same time.
5. in court, he is happy, pleasure-seeking, unless confronted with harmful stars.
6. in court, he can expect hardship; partly due to lack of motivation to do much, especially early in life. If faced with , he can make up for it later in life. Some say it
may be better to take on a military career in this instance.
7. in and courts, life can be difficult in early life. It can improve later on if the
structure changes with transformations. Overall it will not be easy probably because of
emotional setbacks.
8. in and Courts, he may start off on a slow footing, but can expect to develop over
time.
9. in and Courts, he may tend to be lacking in determination to work on his goals.
With the transformation to Hua Guan, he may be able to gain more control over his
attitudes to make things happen.

, of Fire property, is the most complex star among the fourteen Major Stars because
its traits vary most widely. The Chinese words Lian and Zhen mean honesty and chastity, but
it takes stringent conditions for to live up to these meanings. For a start, there must not
be any Adverse Stars in its matrix. Next, it matters much what dual Major Star combination
does it form (these would be discussed in dual star chapters).
At the other end of the spectrum, Lianzhen is also the Secondary Peach Blossom - the
capacity to captivate the opposite gender, and it is about indulging in emotions, hence, the
Star of Passion. If you have grasped these characteristics of Lianzhen, you would comprehend
why it represents Confinement/Imprisonment (hua qi wei jian) in the classic text. For a
person who has not the highest grade of Lianzhen in Self Domain, he/she is always easily
trapped/confined/imprisoned by his/her emotions.
A person can be gracious and often exudes humour and friendliness, but he/she may
be very rigid with principles. Thus, do not expect a Lianzhen person to bend the rules easily
for you even if you are the best of friends.
In addition to emotions and about passion, Lianzhen the Passion Star can also mean
money or blood. To make it even more complicated, it can be a combination of any of the

These stars make things obvious. Whatever the stars they associate with, they make them
agressive, brash, show-off.

In most cases, the effects are negative, since aggression normally leads to turbulent relationships, speculation, loss of wealth, litigations...etc.
In some cases, however, these stars help things to move on fast, bringing about fame,
authority.
Analyse the major stars associated with them. Are they too agressive, then their effects
are negative. If the major stars are too passive, lazy, or too subdued, then and can

Fire Star is one of 6 misfortune stars, represents driving force. Like a fire-like

key to taming the Fire star is to stabilise and control the combustion.
Personality characteristics of Fire star: efficiency, positive and forthright, the

courage to go anew. The courage to try and accept new things.
Siren
Tyrannical. Siren is also one of Dou Shus 6 misfortune stars. It represents quick assertive
actions. Operations often involve the use of sound to contribute to actions. When actions
are positive, it would seem like a pleasant theatrical performance. Yet when negative, it
feels forced and tyrannical. Though known for speedy action, it requires a complete plan
for implementation. When there is a lack of these, projects are typically started but never
completed.
Siren characteristics: able to act swiftly and act in a positive, quick, witty and decisive,
has the courage to face challenges and difficulties. Capable of working beyond preconceived
ideas, accept new things and ideas. Personality may be predisposed to use voice and art to

When Lian Zhen has Flow, it might be negative or positive as it may mean increasing wealth
through the involvement of hazardous/dangerous activities. Naturally the ambition, courage,
and fool-hardiness would increase (Po Jun with Power Enhancer). There would be showy
execution of wealth accumulation as the activities are hazardous/dangerous. Adding everything together, an easily self-confused but extreme witty, agile star having flow; plus the
increase in fool-hardiness and showy execution, would easily lead to political disagreements
(people just want to oppose - Tai Yang Hua Ji).

Lots of movement or strategizing to create wealth (Tian Ji with Flow) and given the capacity
to do more problem-solving and/or become more harsh with principles (Tian Liang with
Power). This movement and capacity makes one become as famous as a confident and powerful
person (Ziwei with Fame). But too much of movement, strategizing, problem-solving, and
fame would easily attract opposition, make one extremely emotional, and/or result in wealth
losses (Tai Yin with Negative).

Tian Tong with Flow may increase the contentment-seeking/spiritual-fulfillment and also can
mean a good renewal. There is some stability after the renewal and many ideas are put forth
strongly to achieve spiritual fulfillment (Tian Ji with Power) . As it is spiritually-fulfilling,
there is an outwardly expression of thoughts and/or things look good only at the surface-level
(Wen Chang with Fame). But a renewal or a fixation on contentment-seeking may result in
conflicting emotions and/or bad relationships with others (Lian Zhen with Negative) as it
may take very long to achieve spiritual-fulfillment.
There is a lot of focus on achieving self-satisfaction in terms of money/wealth (Tai Yin with
Flow) and it the process can be arduous (Tian Tong with Power). The focus on achieving
self-satisfaction in wealth matters may result in being known for coming up with great ideas
and plans, but the consequence would be that people might find the subject contentious with
so much plans and/or being embroiled into disputes due to the arduous process and focus on
self-satisfaction (Ju Men with Negative).
For ZZP, Wu stem Four Enhancers would be Tan Yin Yang Ji.
More focused on pleasure-seeking and networking (Tan Lang with Flow), there is an
increased reinforcement of planning and using strategies to work with people to achieve outcomes (Tai Yin with Power). There will be impressive displays to attract attention (Tai Yang
with Fame) and there might be bad thinking and/or inability to change or frequent changing
because of the pleasure-seeking behaviour (Tian Ji with Negative).
180

More direct actions to increase wealth (Wu Qu with Flow) and there is a increased use
of networking to establish contacts (Tan Lang with Power). One would be well-known for
solving problems as one it will be brimming with ideas (Tian Lian with Fame), although
the execution part may draw verbal disputes and/or just plainly bad execution (Wen Qu with
Negative). Wen Qu with Negative also means dark omens or backstabbing or even things
not-seeming what they are....so it is a sign of caveat emptor.
For ZZP ZWDS, Geng stem would be Yang Wu Fu Tong.

A Sun that shines brightly with flow may draw lots of opposition (Tai Yang with Flow)
and the way it is being achieved is through straightforward and direct delegation (Wu Qu
with Power). Wanting to provide for all, the appearance of being responsible appears (Tian
Fu with Fame). This leads to inner discontentment as there may be a lot of giving and action
but only for others but not for self (Tian Tong with Negative).

Verbalizing contentiousness to increase wealth (Ju Men with Flow) and a forceful push in
human relations (Tai Yang with Power). The use of verbal skills is very apparent and wellknown (Wen Qu with Fame). But there may be bad thinking or lack of black-and-white as
all focus is on verbal agreements/negotiations (Wen Chang with Negative).
For ZZP ZWDS, Ren stem would be Liang Di Fu Wu.

An increase of solving problems to increase wealth (Tian Liang with Flow) makes one very
come up with ambitious plans and/or become very pushy (Ziwei with Power). This display
of problem-solving makes one very reliable (Tian Fu with Fame), although one would meet
up with problems with money as the strategies may have to between sticking with principles
and being practical (Wu Qu with Negative).
Very bold and ground-breaking attempts in investments (Po Jun with Flow) and that would
means being very outspoken in speech to sell the ideas (Ju Men with Power). These plans
are very well-thought and appear extremely detailed (Tai Yin with Fame). These attempts
may be an all-or-nothing gamble and/or impulsive as there is a tendency to be greedy (Tan
Lang with Negative).
10.17
Additional Insights
Heavenly Stem influences both the Flow Enhancer and the Treasurer (Lu Chun).
With the emphasis on the Major Stars in the Self domain meeting Hua Lu and Lu Chun;
the Heavenly Stems of Jia, Yi, Bing, Ji, Xin, and Ren gives Hua Lu and Lu Chun to the
respective Major Stars in the template of Zi Wei + Tian Xiang in the Chen and Xu houses.
10.17. ADDITIONAL INSIGHTS
181
Similarly, Wu Heavenly Stem gives Hua Lu and Lu Chun to the template of Zi Wei + Po
Jun in the Chou and Wei houses.
Ding and Geng Heavenly Stem gives Hua Lu and Lu Chun to the template of Zi Wei +
Qi Sha in the Si and Hai houses.
Gui Heavenly Stem gives Hua Lu and Lu Chun to the template of Zi Wei + Tian Fu in
the Yin and Shen houses.
From ZZP perspective, it seems like only two Major Stars are unaffected/untouched by
the Enhancers, which are Tian Xiang (Seal Minister) and Qi Sha (Field Marshal). Maybe
Qi Sha is more affected internally (they usually appear cold on the outside but with burning
passion in the inside). Tian Xiang is more affected by environmental factors than solely by
itself.
Also, it seems like Lu Chun and Hua Lu can never in the same domain (without mirroring)
in the Mao, Chen, Wu, Wei, You, Xu, Zi, and Chou houses. Perhaps something to do with Zi
Wei + Tan Lang for Mao, Wu, You, and Zi? Suppose this is the case, there will be differences
in analysis when Lu Chun and Hua Lu resides in the Self domain compared to flanking
from left and right e.g. Lu Chun in Career while Hua Lu in Wealth.
Perhaps the permutations have to be tracked back to how the 60 Jia Zi Na Yin influences the Ming Gong (Self Domain) placement in ZWDS. IMHO, from there maybe we can
understand how the formulas were derived from the XTBG and 60 Jia Zi.

successes.

Twelve Stages of Birth

They seem to denote the phase of the energies in the domain as well as enhance/reduce
the effects of the stars. For e.g. Guan Dai in Career domain usually means the subject
starts his/her career early, Shuai/Bing/Si in relationships can weaken affinity within those
domains, Jue is the worst in the relationship domains as it means extremely little affinity, Mu
in Career can mean hidden potential or acting behind the scenes, Mu Yu can be challenging
for maintaining monogamy in love relationships (Mu Yu may be a good phase for change and
beginning anew), although Di Wang is very powerful and means peak - it also means that this
power will topple or diminish when this phase passes, Lin Guan can be good for promotions
or getting new projects, Tai is the most vulnerable point but also the opportunity for new
beginning, Zhang Sheng/Yang are generally auspicious phases for growth.
As with any other analysis, we have to see the interaction of all stars when
analysing Zhang Sheng Shi Er Shen. It is very useful when looking at the Base chart to see
which phase the subject starts in, and the phases that the subject goes through in Decade,
Annual, and Liunian.
Chang Sheng Growth : This indicates an exceptional level of competence and excellence
in ones youth, who will also be privileged to be born into an affluent family, with wealthy
parents.
Mu Yu Bath : This is a Killing Star, whose effects are akin to that of a baby being
bathed in a bath tub. It speaks of someone who is helplessly controlled by others. A man
under the effects under the effects of this Star is susceptible to facing failure and loneliness in
life, as well as the possibility of death in the fasmily. A woman, meanwhile, may suffer from
ill fortune affecting her own family, as well as her husbands family. Worse still, her firstborn
may not survive its childhood.
Guan Dai Youth/Attire : This indicates that when a person reaches his/her twenties,
the time has come to tie the knot, start a business, or attain stability in his/her career.
He/she may have to work hard initially, but will eventually succeed and become wealthy by
middle age. Networking with helpful persons will play a pivotal role in ensuring this persons
success at an older age. Nevertheless, those born into affluent families will be able to inherit
when the time comes.
Lin Guan Officer/Coming to Age / Di Wang Prosperity Peak : These are positive
indicators that when a person reaches his/her forties or fifties, he/she will enjoy a good
reputation, which is accompanied by status, authority and wealth.
Shuai Weakening/Aging / Bing Sick/Sickness / Si Death : These are the harbingers

CHAPTER 12. TWELVE STAGES OF BIRTH
of ailments, poverty, loneliness and even death, when a person reaches his/her seventies or
eighties. However, such negative effects can be negated and neutralized with the presence of
the Wealth Star.
Mu Grave/Tomb : This is akin to a burial chamber or crypt where the dead are buried
with their precious, earthly possessions. It usually indicates miserly or stingy individuals.
Jue Extinction/Repose : Unfortunately, all hope is lost, with no help in sight.
Tai Conceived/Womb : Despite the fact that it is still in its infancy or flailing stages,
a new development or life brings about renewed hope.
Yang Nourishing/Gestation : Once a new development or growth has stabilized, nurturing
and attending to it carefully will bring about positive changes in ones life.

Assessing Personality
In , depicts the traits in a personality that are apparent and displayed when
the subject is interacted with. The documents what goes on in the mind; the traits
that are hidden from the eyes. For instance, a person may appear to be generous () but
in essence stingy (). A more critical application will be for checking ones integrity.
A complete profile is therefore established by looking at both the as well as .
we can have a minimum of 64 and a maximum of 98 possible types of personalities, depending
on how stringent we go with the star brightness requirement. The main influencing domain
of is . It represents the values the subject holds.
Personality decides much in life. It is because of certain special quality that a successful
person can scale great heights in life. It is also the lack of certain other quality that halts
him from going higher. Whether one handles the challenges in life well also depends on ones
personality.
While we are not always able to jump to specific conclusions about the life of another
person in terms of the consequences of the trends in the chart, analysing a chart
remains as one of the quickest means to assess a personality.
With the information of a personality profile clearly established, it can help one to maximise his/her potential and to minimise mistakes, especially when it is acquired well before
one makes a vital decision.
For instance, it is going to be a grave mistake when a Lianzhen-Tanlang child is told to take
up engineering courses. Requirements in such courses and a Lianzhen-Tanlang personality
are incompatible. It is the worst scenario for an uninhibited Lianzhen-Tanlang personality to
be restrained by hard and cold minute details in engineering.
Likewise, it is going to be dreadful to a kid when he/she is forced to learn ballet.
Either the parents or the kid, or both parties will be frustrated when it is discovered later
that the kid has no natural talents for such performance arts.
On the business scene, the sales of products like a computer is better handled by a
person who is more capable to convince with rationality and logic, while a fashion piece
may be easier sold by a or salesperson who is more capable to appeal to the hearts.
These are just a few simple examples to illustrate how we can use the age-old knowledge
to maximise life.
As we can use it to profile a personality well, becomes an effective tool to study
the level of compatibility between two or more people too. This can be applied not only
on relationship studies but also for corporate or business establishments to maximise human

It is not uncommon to find children taking up a career or study choice because of their
parents wishes. If their personality traits display an artistic tendency, then a career/ study
choice to the contrary will not be beneficial to the person.
Commentary These are the two domains we should interpret together to understand a
personality completely. Thinking Domain is the most misunderstood of all the twelve because

virtue or karma, but they do not mean those when it comes to . The shows the

Commentary Personality analysis. This is a chart of a young engineer. Lianzhen and

Tanlang are about Peach Blossom luck and represent talent. When they are found to be
in a combination like this, however, it indicates a free soul who prefers to wander than to
get tied down, to express freely than to be meticulous, to be creative than to follow rules.
Together with the pair of Interference Stars, Dikong and Dijie flanking the , this quality
is even more exaggerated. Do they fit the description of an engineer? The young man is
already very frustrated with his daily work two years into the profession. This is a result of
wrong guidance from the parents who wanted their children to have their (parents) choices
of professions. What should he do now, especially in a society that is very restrictive? From
the chart we can deduce what his true talents are, and it would be recommended for him to
indulge in those artistic talents over the weekends. This aims to balance his life.

Commentary Personality analysis. This is the chart of the younger sister of the engineer,
who is about to make a choice of study course. The mother wanted her to be a teacher, but

Assessing Marriage
15.1
Introduction
In Marriage assessment, destiny forecast is about assessing whether the male benefits the
female, vice versa, as well as whether the male clashes the female and vice versa. San Ming
Tong Hui says that For a male, the brighter the better, while for females, it appears better
to be weaker. Softer nature begets prosperity, while a stronger nature begets calamity. This
is compatible with the arguments of Yin-Yang theory. If the female is strong and bright,
while the male is dim and weak, we call this Yin-Yang inversion and directly violates the
Laws of Yin-Yang and naturally leads to disaster. Under this basic argument, the assessment
of the male and female chart is therefore not the same, just as in Zi Ping Bazi. Assess the
females Spouse domain as well as males main star on the Female side, while for the male, it
is necessary to perform a complete chart-wide assessment.
Zi Wei Dou Shu as one of the ancient art of numerology, has therefore its own art and
way of assessing Marriage destiny. To assess where the marriage is headed, assess the basic
Marriage domain of both persons as well as their associated Matrix for good and unfortunate
stars for predictions.

The Spouse Domain

CHAPTER 15. ASSESSING MARRIAGE
The Spouse Domain describes what a person likes to see in the spouse, as well as the mental
states of the; this domain documents the character, appearance and the relationship with the
spouse. In assessing the relationship, it is most important whether the spouse is supportive
or not.
It is also possible to see if the relationship will affect the subjects quality of life. Generally,
it is not ideal for the Spouse Domain to be located at the four corners of a chart
(, , , ) as it represents a relationship that is more prone to external influences and
uncertainties.
This domain can also predict whether marriage will end in divorce and indications of
external affairs.
Indications of Third Parties

If you notice that your palace contain or then it is possible that your spouse
might have more opportunities with other women.
Common Star Combinations in Spouse Domain

:

A male subject gets a virtuous wife that can be a good mother. A female subject marries
a prestigious person of high social standing. Harmonious relationship. Disturbances in

Assessing Affinity
To assess affinity, compare the Annual Spouse domains of the two persons, followed by assessing the Decade and Destiny spousal domains for the big picture.
15.4
Assessing Compatibility
To assess the compatibility between the personalities of the couple, first look to the Destiny Domain master star and assess the compatibility between the to stars of the person.
Assess the Decade and Annual Destiny master stars then after. If the Destiny master stars
are compatible, the couples relationships are pleasant and feel close to each other, so too
does the effect of the Decade Destiny master stars.
If the Decade master stars are in conflict, the couple is not exactly suitable for each other,
quarrels and fighting are common, until separation or death.
Yin-Yang Theory
The Yin-Yang Theory is a rather a good way to fit people together, though society is now
more balanced in the way of power-distribution tolerance between the two genders.
Suitable combinations of stars typically come from the same matrix e.g. Sha Po Lang, Ji
Yue Tong Liang, etc.
Very fated matches with 80% same structure and stars within the Basic Spouse matrix
of the subject that fits the Basic Self matrix of the subjects partner.

Assessing Twins
A commonly asked question of Destiny consultants, whether with the intention to provoke
dispute, or out of a genuine desire to learn is: How do you read charts for twins? Since the
times are the same, does it not imply a same destiny?.
Psychology has long answered the behavioural issues between twins. Though genetically
predisposed to have the same diseases, actual documentations of twins have showed that
beyond that, they do not share much else in common by way of life. So then, is there any
need at all in to change the chinese hour for the later twin? We do not need to fudge
the time parameter, but we perform one of the following operations.
1. After we have made the chart according to the input, the elder twin takes the original
chart. With all the positions of the stars intact in the chart, we shift the domains using
the Siblings Domain as the Destiny Domain for the younger twin.
Therefore, the younger twin has the positions of the twelve domains move one space
like a dial in anticlockwise manner.
2. OR: The younger twin takes the original chart. The elder twin takes the chart with the
positions of the twelve domains rotated one space clockwise. The stars are not rotated
along with the domains.
Choose whichever is suitable for that particular pair of twins. I must emphasize that
throughout the entire treatise the stance we take has always been about obtaining accurate
practical results rather than a theoretical argument about which would be correct.
With the above method it is immediately apparent, merely from the charts,that
the personality and the trends in life for twins are never the same.

Decade and Annual Charts

More often than not, on the first analysis - if your charting is right and you have recorded
your birth data correctly - you might see things that dont fit. Remember when you are
looking at your natal chart, you are seeing your life as a whole. That is many years squeezed
into 12 boxes.
Next, check the Decade chart. Where is the 10-year Self court located? What are the new
transformations for these decade? Where are the flying stars?
The Decade chart presents the life situation for a particular decade. It governs the
medium-term happenings and changes in the subjects life. While the natal readings still
hold true, this decade has its interesting events. Enjoy the good things, ignore the bad...no
dont ignore the bad, just bear them in mind, take steps to avoid the pitfalls but dont mope
over them.
If you wish, you can try to analyse the 1-year charts. These describe the small changes,
the ups and downs we face day to day.
Annual readings are not suitable for use in long-term planning. There is no need to analyse
them for detail, but very useful to get a feel for what is to come in a coming year, or trying
to assess the reasons behind certain accidents etc.

17.2
Annual Chart
For annual, note down the earthly branch of the year in question. Use the court with that
year branch as the Destiny Domain, the other domains are rotated accordingly.
17.3
Monthly Chart
Go anticlockwise from Annual Destiny domain the birth month, followed by clockwise the
number of Shi Chen to birth hour.
17.4

Dual Stars
The six stars led by , followed by , , , , are placed in an anticlockwise sequence. Eight others are led by , followed by , , , , ,
and are laid out in a clockwise sequence. Due to the given positional relationships
between the two leaders, the two sets of Major Stars cross path to form 24 possible dual
Major Stars combinations.
Since the relative positions of the stars in the two series are fixed, there can therefore only
be 38 possible types of Major Stars for a domain - the sum of the 14 single stars and their 24
possible pairs.
