Po Jun in the Parents Palace

Po Jun is the star of destruction and renewal, with thin ties to close family; its transformed energy is Depletion. In the Life Palace it brings pioneering change, suited to technical specialities.

Summary

Po Jun in the Parents Palace means a thin bond with parents and leaving home early; living apart, both sides do well. The book says early harm, avoided by changing one's name or being fostered; Volume 1 says scarring and harm. With bosses, frequent changes. Master Ni read Po Jun in Wu in Temple with auspicious stars as able to inherit the father's estate. With Zi Wei, no harm, and parents with status; with Wu Qu, resolute parents and a strict upbringing; with Lian Zhen, a thin bond avoided only with Tian Fu. Caution: with malefics the bond weakens, so actively care for parents.

Core reading

With Po Jun in the Parents Palace, the book says "Po Jun, early harm, leaving the ancestral home," meaning the bond with your parents is thin and you leave home early to stand on your own; Volume 1 also says "in the Parents Palace, scarring and harm," meaning this family tie leans thin and you easily obstruct each other. The remedy given is "changing the name, being fostered or adopted out to avoid harm," which in plain language means: by changing your name, or being adopted or fostered in another family, both sides actually fare well. Sharing a palace with Zi Wei, it's "no harm," meaning this mutual obstruction doesn't arise; sharing with Wu Qu or Lian Zhen, it comes even earlier. With Po Jun in Temple in the Wu palace plus auspicious stars, Master Ni calls it "the heroic star in Temple plus auspicious stars," "able to inherit her father's ancestral estate" — in that case it isn't read as separation. Your relationship with bosses likewise has ups and downs, and it's hard to stay long under the same person.

When sharing the palace with Zi Wei · 735 sample charts
In one sentence

With Zi Wei in the Parents Palace, the old book says "Zi Wei, no harm": your bond with your parents is not thin, and they are respected and reliable.

Core reading

For Zi Wei in the Parents Palace, the old book gives only two words, "no harm," meaning your bond with your parents is unlikely to suffer harm or early separation; sharing a palace with Tian Fu, Tian Xiang or Tan Lang without malefic stars added likewise brings no such harm — this is the most important point for this palace. Your parents often have status or a strong presence and high expectations of their children; your dealings with bosses and elders also always carry a hint of hierarchy, so it's best to show some respect in your attitude. If Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie are added, the bond is diminished and easily grows distant; sharing a palace with Po Jun, this distance comes even earlier.

Basis in the chart

· Zi Wei in the Parents Palace — your father or elders carry the air of the emperor star and have authority.

· Zi Wei meeting the six malefics in the Parents Palace — your father or elders are domineering and hard to get close to; keep some distance.
