Ju Men in the Parents Palace

Ju Men is the star of disputes and eloquence, ruling over debate and communication; its transformed energy is Darkness. In the Life Palace it brings a gift for words, suited to law and teaching.

Summary

Ju Men in the Parents Palace brings frequent verbal clashes with parents, elders and superiors; with malefic stars relations grow tense, so avoid direct confrontation. The old book says in a fallen position there is harm, sometimes leaving the family to be adopted as an heir, so a Fallen Ju Men calls for more effort. With Tai Yang harmony is scarce and the father bond depends on Tai Yang's brightness; with Tian Ji parents are clever and value learning; with Tian Tong parents are gentle, though malefic stars leave the bond incomplete.

· Complete Book of Zi Wei Dou Shu, Volume 2 · Parents: "In reading parents, take the Tai Yang star as the father and the Tai Yin star as the mother. Tai Yang in a Fallen palace signifies harming the father first; the Tai Yin star in a Fallen palace signifies harming the mother first." "If both stars are in Fallen positions, judge only by the person's birth time: born by day, the father survives; born at night, the mother remains." "Tai Yang in Temple, no harm; in a Fallen position, harming the father; adding Yang, Tuo, Huo, Ling, Kong or Jie, harming the parents early" "with Ju Men plus the four malefics, Kong and Jie, early harm; with Tian Liang, no harm."

· Complete Book of Zi Wei Dou Shu, Volume 2 · Parents (Tai Yin, Tian Liang and Ju Men entries): "with Tai Yang and no four malefics, both parents alive" "with Tai Yang, harm comes late; adding the four malefics, Kong and Jie, also early harm" "with Tai Yang, little harmony"

When sharing the palace with Tian Tong · 670 sample charts
In one sentence

With Tian Tong in the Parents Palace, your parents are gentle and easy to get along with.

Core reading

With Tian Tong in the Parents Palace, your parents are gentle and easygoing, relations are relaxed, and bosses are fairly approachable, with little sense of pressure. The book says that with Tian Tong sitting alone in this palace and in Temple (strong), the parent-child bond rarely runs into problems; sharing a palace with Tai Yin, both parents are alive and well; with Tian Liang, either there's no awkwardness between you or the ancestral estate can't be kept; with Ju Men, you don't get along very well. If Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie are added, your bond with your parents is incomplete; in the old days this was called "bowing to parents twice," meaning situations such as taking godparents, being adopted out, or being raised by others as a child.

Cautions

Zi Wei Dou Shu emphasizes seeing Yin and Yang together; below are neutral reminders based on the features of this chart — knowing what to watch for lets you turn danger into safety.

· Complete Book of Zi Wei Dou Shu, Volume 2 · Parents (Tai Yin, Ju Men and Tian Liang entries): "with Tian Tong, extremely beautiful" "with Tian Tong, perhaps retreating from the ancestral, no harm" "with Tian Tong plus the four malefics, harm; without malefics, no harm"
