Tai Yin in the Children 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 【Tai Yin】 is Fallen and lacks energy; in the bond with children you need to actively invest more effort and cannot rely on instinct alone.

Your children are clever and quick-witted, but not many. Meeting malefic stars, the old book says "no sons at all."

· Tian Ji in the Children Palace — your children are clever, nimble and active.

· Complete Book, Volume 2 · Children: "Tian Ji in Temple/Prosperous, two, or many born of concubines; with Ju Men, one; with Tian Liang in the Yin palace, two or three; in the Shen palace, more girls than boys, only one son; with Tai Yin, two or three; adding Yang, Tuo, Huo, Ling, Kong or Jie, no sons at all." (Note: Tian Ji and Tian Liang share a palace only in Chen and Xu, and in the Yin and Shen palaces Tian Ji must share with Tai Yin, so the original conditions "with Tian Liang in the Yin palace" and "in the Shen palace" don't match actual charts; to be investigated.)

· Ni Haixia, Heavenly Records episode 19, 26:32: "If it's Tian Ji and Ju Men, it's a big zero — with these two in the Children Palace there are none; siblings yes, but no sons"

· Ni Haixia, Heavenly Records episode 17, 08:33: "The Tian Liang star is a Yang star representing a male; the Tian Ji star is female, representing Yin, representing a Yin star"

· Complete Book, Volume 1 · What Does Tai Yang Govern: "If the Children Palace gets Ba Zuo, plus auspicious stars in a Temple/Prosperous position, it signifies giving birth to noble sons with no small authority."

Your children are gentle and kind; the parent-child relationship is relaxed. This star is strong — many children.

With Tian Tong in the Children Palace, your children are gentle and kind, the parent-child relationship is relaxed, they're close to their parents, and the home atmosphere is warm. When Master Ni discusses the Children Palace he says "with Tian Tong, one"; the Complete Book gives other numbers according to Temple/Fallen and stars sharing the palace — the two views stand side by side, and this platform takes Master Ni as primary. The Complete Book says Tian Tong in Temple means "five sons with nobility," about five children, and one who amounts to something. Adding Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie, the Complete Book says "seeing harm, few sons to see you off at death."
