The Mentor in the Travel palace
天梁迁移Tiān Liáng in Qiān Yí — also called the Migration palace
Purple Star editorial · Reviewed
The Mentor (天梁 Tiān Liáng) in the Travel palace (迁移, the Migration palace) — the outside world — relocation, opportunities abroad, how others receive you: You turn danger to safety abroad — difficulties away from home always seem to find a way out — and you carry a sheltering quality, well suited to going out in law, medicine, education or spiritual work.
The Travel palace is the outside world: relocation, life away from home, and how strangers receive you. A star here shows how you fare once you leave familiar ground.
What it means
In the Travel palace you turn danger to safety abroad — difficulties away from home always seem to find a way out — and you carry a sheltering quality, well suited to going out in law, medicine, education or spiritual work. With Hua Merit, your name travels far; with Hua Prosperity, sheltering fortune comes with it.
The shadow side
The road runs steady overall, with a wise elder's help never far off; there is little to guard against here beyond the star's usual pull to solitude.
The Four Transformations四化 Si Hua — four stars in your chart receive a special charge from your birth-year stem: Flow 禄 (ease), Power 权 (control), Merit 科 (recognition), Obstacle 忌 (friction). (四化) — Flow, Power, Merit and Obstacle — can sharpen or soften any of this depending on your exact birth year. Your own chart shows which are active.
