Tian Ji in the Property Palace
Tian Ji is the star of intelligence, ruling over agility and quick thinking; its transformed energy is Goodness. In the Life Palace it brings a clever, adaptable mind, suited to advisory and planning roles.
Summary
Tian Ji in the Property Palace usually means the ancestral estate isn't kept; you buy your own home and move often, as the Complete Book says: retreating from the ancestral, founding anew. With Tian Liang you acquire property and are wealthy later, ending with property if no malefics appear; with Tai Yin, self-acquired and prosperous; with Ju Men, fields in Mao, but in You the estate isn't kept, first large then small. Caution: with Kong and Jie the family estate is hard to build and renting may beat buying; when Tian Ji is Fallen, property needs more effort.
