The Sun in the Property palace
太阳田宅Tài Yáng in Tián Zhái — also called the Estate palace
Purple Star editorial · Reviewed
The Sun (太阳 Tài Yáng) in the Property palace (田宅, the Estate palace) — home, real estate, family assets: The home is bright and open, full of yang energy, and suits someone with a public life.
The Property palace is home and holdings — the house you live in, real estate, and family assets. It is also the traditional treasury, so a star here speaks to what you keep.
What it means
In the Property palace the home is bright and open, full of yang energy, and suits someone with a public life. Exalted, family assets are ample and the ancestral line carries lustre.
The shadow side
Fallen, the household is unsettled and relations with the father or family carry tension. There is a classical warning that under Hua Ji the male relatives — father, husband, son — are the ones most affected.
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.
From the classics
「太阳落陷,劳而无获」
A fallen Sun labours without reward — in its weak seats the Sun's effort outruns what it earns back.
