The 14 Main Stars

命

Stars are energies. Drop one into a palace and the placement reads itself.

How to read a chart

Two questions answer almost any placement.

A chart is just stars sitting in palaces. Each star is an energy — a what. Each palace is an area of life — a where. Read the two together and any placement opens up.

The stars — the energy

What it does.

The Purple Star in your Spouse palace = someone who leads and protects, in your marriage.

Purple Star · Spouse palace

someone who leads and protects

in your marriage.

That's the whole method. Brightness, the Four Transformations, and the stars that share a palace add nuance — but every reading starts from this energy, in this area.
