What it means
In the Marriage palace love is changeable and often unconventional — several relationships, perhaps, or an age gap with the spouse. Give each other plenty of freedom or the bond cannot last. With Hua Prosperity it 'breaks, then builds': after upheaval the relationship finally comes right.

Under Hua Ji, the relationship can be destroyed outright and the marriage carries high risk of upheaval — prepare yourself for it in advance.
