Zi Wei in the Parents Palace

Zi Wei is the Emperor Star, ruling over dignity and rank; its transformed energy is Honor. In the Life Palace it brings natural leadership, suited to large platforms and senior positions.

Summary

Zi Wei in the Parents Palace earns just two words from the old book: no harm. The bond with your parents rarely suffers damage or early separation; parents often have status and authority and expect much of you. With Tian Fu, Tian Xiang or Tan Lang and no malefic stars there is likewise no harm. Show some deference to superiors and elders. Fallen calls for more effort; with Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie the bond weakens and elders are hard to approach, so keep some distance; with Po Jun the distance comes earlier.

In one sentence

With Zi Wei in the Parents Palace, the old book says "Zi Wei, no harm": your bond with your parents is not thin, and they are respected and reliable.

Core reading

For Zi Wei in the Parents Palace, the old book gives only two words, "no harm," meaning your bond with your parents is unlikely to suffer harm or early separation; sharing a palace with Tian Fu, Tian Xiang or Tan Lang without malefic stars added likewise brings no such harm — this is the most important point for this palace. Your parents often have status or a strong presence and high expectations of their children; your dealings with bosses and elders also always carry a hint of hierarchy, so it's best to show some respect in your attitude. If Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie are added, the bond is diminished and easily grows distant; sharing a palace with Po Jun, this distance comes even earlier.
