Tian Liang in the Property 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 Temple/Prosperous in the Property Palace brings ancestral property and a protected, well-founded home; the verse says blessings arise of themselves here. With Tian Ji you buy your own home, move often and grow rich late; with Tian Tong you step back before advancing, little at first and more later; with Tai Yang you inherit ancestral favour, strong at first then levelling in Temple, while Fallen with malefics leaves no property. Zuo Fu and You Bi make the home solid; Kong and Jie weaken protection and erode the estate.

Core reading
With Tian Liang in the Property Palace, the Complete Book says "Tian Liang in Temple/Prosperous, there is an ancestral estate," meaning in Temple (strong) there's property passed down from your ancestors; with Tian Tong in the same palace, first hard then easy; with Tian Ji, as long as Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie aren't met, there will always be property. Your ancestors' shelter is there and the family has depth. The verse also says Tian Liang "in Property or Siblings, gaining it, blessings arise by themselves," meaning falling in the Property or Siblings Palace, blessings come naturally.
The book has two more sayings about sharing the palace: with Tian Ji, "acquiring property, rich in later years" — the family estate grows thick only in later years; with Tian Tong, "retreating first then advancing" — step back first, then move forward.

In this Property Palace, you can inherit the blessings of your ancestors.
With Tai Yang in the Property Palace, the Complete Book says Tai Yang "dwelling in Property, receives the grandfather's blessings." The old book says in Temple (Temple = the star is strong) "inherits the ancestral estate, prosperous at first, later level," meaning you'll most likely receive the ancestral property, but it flourishes first and later levels off, so preserving it matters more than expanding; Fallen (weak) and meeting Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie, the land is "none at all," meaning no fields or houses — property cannot be kept. Sharing a palace with Ju Men, the Tai Yang entry says "flourishing" in the Yin palace and "retreating from the ancestral, yet not without property" in the Shen palace, while the Ju Men entry says "with Tai Yang, first nothing then gain" — the two views stand side by side.

· Tai Yang Fallen in the Property Palace and meeting Yang, Tuo, Huo, Ling, Kong and Jie — no land at all.
