Tian Liang in the Siblings Palace

Tian Liang is the elder and sheltering star, able to turn misfortune into good; its transformed energy is Shelter. In the Life Palace it brings compassion and kindness, suited to law and medicine.

Summary

Tian Liang in the Siblings Palace shows mature, steady siblings, an older one like half a teacher who can pull you through critical moments; the Complete Book says blessings arise of themselves here. Partners are also steady companions. When Fallen, invest more effort in siblings and partnerships. With Tian Ji siblings are clever but each has their own ideas, so partnerships suit the short term; with Tai Yang a sibling of standing, great help in Temple, while Fallen you should test partnerships small first; with Tian Tong siblings are harmonious and partnerships productive.

In one sentence

Your older siblings are mature, like half a teacher.

Core reading

Among your siblings are mature, steady ones; older brothers and sisters have an elder's air and can pull you through at critical moments. The Complete Book's verse on Tian Liang says "in the Property or Siblings Palace, gaining it, blessings arise of themselves," meaning with Tian Liang in the Property or Siblings Palace, blessings come naturally — exactly this protection. Partners are also mostly mature and steady, companions who can shoulder things together. But the book puts it more concretely: in Temple (strong) there are two siblings who get along harmoniously, or possibly many who aren't full siblings and don't get along. Further seeing Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie, the old book has just one word, "few": even fewer siblings.
