Po Jun in the Property Palace

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.

◆ This palace's main star 【Po Jun】 is Fallen and lacks energy; in property and real estate you need to actively invest more effort and cannot rely on instinct alone.

The family estate flourishes, most of all the part you acquire yourself.

For Zi Wei in the Property Palace, the old book's verdict is "flourishing, self-acquired, prosperous," meaning the family estate thrives, and the most prosperous part is what you buy with money you've earned, while what your ancestors left is not the main thread (sharing a palace with Po Jun, the Zi Wei entry says "with Po Jun, retreating from the ancestral," while the Po Jun entry says "with Zi Wei, there is a ready-made family estate" — the two stand side by side); sharing with Tian Xiang, the Zi Wei entry says "with Tian Xiang, there is a ready-made family estate," while the Tian Xiang entry says "with Zi Wei, self-acquired" — the two stand side by side; the book also says "gaining Zuo, You, Chang and Qu." You care about style in your home, and property can be one of your main ways of saving. Adding Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie, it becomes able to buy but unable to keep; acquire property steadily, and don't jump into several at once.

· Zi Wei in the Property Palace — the home has an imperial air, signifying abundant ancestral property or a noble self-acquired residence.

· Zi Wei meeting Zuo Fu and You Bi in the Property Palace — help from the ancestral estate; family fortune flourishes.

· Complete Book · Volume 2 · Property: "Zi Wei, flourishing, self-acquired, prosperous; adding Yang, Tuo, Huo, Ling, Kong or Jie, acquiring and losing; with Po Jun, retreating from the ancestral; with Tian Xiang, there is a ready-made family estate; gaining Zuo, You, Chang and Qu."

· Complete Book of Zi Wei Dou Shu · Volume 2 · Property, entry on Po Jun: "Po Jun in the Zi or Wu palace keeps the ancestral estate flourishing, but sees advances and retreats; adding Yang, Tuo, Huo or Ling, retreating from the ancestral, little land; with Zi Wei, there is a ready-made family estate; with Lian Zhen, first broken, then acquired; with Hao or Ji, none at all."

Wu Qu specifically governs wealth and property; real estate is your key asset.

· Wu Qu in the Property Palace — property is your treasury; you value practical function.

· Wu Qu sharing a palace with Huo Xing or Ling Xing — the Complete Book's entry on Wu Qu in Property says "meeting Huo or Ling together is extremely beautiful, land flourishes" (this phrase follows "with Tan Lang, acquiring late"; the original does not make clear whether it applies only when Wu Qu and Tan Lang share a palace); for Wu Qu and Tan Lang together, the Tan Lang entry separately says "meeting Huo or Ling, keeps the ancestral estate and creates its own, but fire may burn the house." These views stand side by side.

· Complete Book · Volume 2 · Property: "Wu Qu alone in a Prosperous position inherits the grandfather's great estate; in a Fallen position, only after retreating does one succeed; with Po Jun and Da Hao, family property is squandered, and even if one has it, it doesn't last," "with Tian Xiang, first loss then gain; with Qi Sha, the heart is unwilling; with Tian Fu, keeps the established family estate; with Tan Lang, acquiring late; meeting Huo or Ling together is extremely beautiful, land flourishes; with Kong and Jie, gains and losses."

· Complete Book · Volume 1 · On What the Wu Qu Star Governs: "Wealth and property are its special domain"

· Complete Book of Zi Wei Dou Shu · Volume 2 · Property, entry on Po Jun: "Po Jun in the Zi or Wu palace keeps the ancestral estate flourishing, but sees advances and retreats; adding Yang, Tuo, Huo or Ling, retreating from the ancestral, little land; with Zi Wei, there is a ready-made family estate; with Lian Zhen, first broken, then acquired; with Hao or Ji, none at all."

Ancestral property is hard to keep; you'll most likely have to acquire your own.

The old book on Lian Zhen in the Property Palace: "Lian Zhen breaks the ancestral," meaning the ancestral estate can't be kept and you'll most likely have to acquire your own home; sharing a palace with Qi Sha you also buy your own; with Tian Fu you can take over a ready-made family estate; with Tian Xiang "first nothing, then gain," meaning first you have none and later you do; with Tan Lang there is ancestral property, but it isn't kept long. The overall trend is that ancestral property is hard to keep and you mostly rely on acquiring your own.
