Tan Lang in the Health Palace

The old book says Zi Wei in the Health Palace means few calamities; which organ to watch depends on the earthly branch of the palace with the most concentrated malefic stars in the whole chart.

Your Health Palace holds Zi Wei. When the Complete Book discusses Zi Wei in the Health Palace, it first says "few calamities." But the Health Palace is only a reference; you cannot assume all is well just because it is Zi Wei.

As for which organ needs more attention, Master Ni does not look at the star's element, nor only at the Health Palace alone: whichever palace in the whole chart has the most concentrated and worst malefic stars, he maps that palace's earthly branch to an organ (Zi gallbladder, Chou liver, Yin lungs, Mao large intestine, Chen stomach, Si spleen, Wu heart, Wei small intestine, Shen bladder, You kidneys, Xu pericardium, Hai triple burner); if two palaces are both bad, look at both. Reading the spleen and stomach because Zi Wei belongs to Earth is a path he does not take.

To read health you must also look together at the Life Palace and the ten-year Decade Period you are passing through. In the decade when the Decade Period reaches the Health Palace, the body is the first thing to watch. In daily life keep a regular routine, eat until seventy percent full, drink less, get regular checkups and follow medical advice.
