The fourteen main stars
Tian Xiang (天相): The Minister
Tian Xiang is the seal of trust: fairness, service and the gift of coordination.
Strengths
- fairness and diplomacy
- reliability
- organization
Room to grow
If you usually go along with what others want, say your own preference first in the next discussion.
Tian Xiang in the twelve palaces
Tian Xiang in the Life Palace
You are fair and measured, care about appearances and harmony, and are good at finding balance between people.
Tian Xiang in the Siblings Palace
You are often the fair-minded coordinator among siblings or partners; do not always give way to keep everyone happy.
Tian Xiang in the Spouse Palace
You are considerate and reasonable in love and value respect and fairness; saying what you prefer at key moments helps your partner know you.
Tian Xiang in the Children Palace
You are fair and patient with children and students, and your work is balanced and complete; inviting different opinions makes them more creative.
Tian Xiang in the Wealth Palace
You keep your finances balanced and orderly, usually soundly; double-check before guaranteeing a loan or entering a partnership.
Tian Xiang in the Health Palace
You look after everything else and neglect your own rhythm; time that nobody can interrupt reduces stress a lot.
Tian Xiang in the Travel Palace
You are well liked in orderly, cooperative settings and often find helpful people away from home.
Tian Xiang in the Friends Palace
You are popular among friends and often make introductions or mediate; watch out for saying yes to too many favours.
Tian Xiang in the Career Palace
Coordination, administration, people management, law or service work suits you; you keep teams running smoothly.
Tian Xiang in the Property Palace
You want a home that is tidy, presentable and orderly, and you value harmony with family.
Tian Xiang in the Wellbeing Palace
You feel at peace when things are fair and relationships calm; learning to say no to the unreasonable lightens you.
Tian Xiang in the Parents Palace
You usually get on well with elders and bosses and know when to step forward or back; beyond respect, make room for your own ideas.
Where Tian Xiang is bright or dim
| Branch | Zi | Chou | Yin | Mao | Chen | Si | Wu | Wei | Shen | You | Xu | Hai |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brightness | Exalted | Exalted | Exalted | Subdued | Favored | Favored | Exalted | Favored | Exalted | Subdued | Favored | Favored |
Brightness follows the table of the Complete Book of Zi Wei Dou Shu. A bright star shows its nature easily; a dim one asks for more effort, not for worry.
Tian Xiang and the four transformations
Tian Xiang takes none of the four transformations in any year, so it is read through its palace and the stars beside it.
A question for you
Where could a little more balance help today?
