Fixing the Chart Again: The Role of the Minor Stars

AI translated from the original Chinese.

Fixing a chart is a real hassle: if the hour is wrong, the results are completely different.

The night before last I received a client's birth data in advance, and as luck would have it, the birth time again fell on the boundary between two hours. Unlike the previous article, where the difference was only 17 seconds, this time it was 2 minutes. To be precise, the birth time the subject gave was the 2nd minute of the 卯 (Mao) hour.

In this situation one would normally read the chart for the 卯 hour. But the problem is the same as in the previous article: destiny begins with the baby's first breath in this world. So if the doctor delivered the subject in the last minute of the 寅 (Yin) hour, and the birth time was recorded in the 2nd minute of the 卯 hour, what then? To be careful, let's fix the chart.

Drawing a chart takes the year, month, day and hour. The key to deciding between a 寅-hour birth and a 卯-hour birth lies in the "minor stars" that move with the hour, namely:

地空, 地劫 (Di Kong, Di Jie); 文昌, 文曲 (Wen Chang, Wen Qu); 火星, 鈴星 (Huo Xing, Ling Xing)

The 寅 Hour Chart:

丑 Palace: 天府 + 地劫 + 擎羊

• 天府 (Tian Fu): governs seeking wealth; its element is Earth.
• 擎羊 (Qing Yang): in the 丑 Palace it gives the ability to get things done.
• 地劫 (Di Jie): in a strong palace it has a diluting effect; in a weak palace, a turbulent one.

So 天府 + 擎羊 + 地劫 shows an attitude that is not proactive about seeking wealth.

The 卯 Hour Chart

丑 Palace: 天府, 鈴星, 擎羊

• 天府: governs seeking wealth; its element is Earth.
• 擎羊: in the 丑 Palace it gives the ability to get things done.
• 鈴星 (Ling Xing): in a strong palace it shows as quick-wittedness.

So 天府 + 擎羊 + 鈴星 shows a very proactive attitude toward seeking wealth.

Comparing the 寅 and 卯 Hour Charts

• 寅 hour chart: 天府 + 擎羊 + 地劫, not proactive about seeking wealth.
• 卯 hour chart: 天府 + 擎羊 + 鈴星, very proactive about seeking wealth.

The same chart, the same 天府, yet different minor stars produce different effects. Sometimes I even feel that destiny is controlled by the minor stars.

Once we find where the charts differ, to fix the chart we can ask: "Is your attitude toward making money proactive or passive?" If the answer is "proactive," the 卯 hour is more likely; if "passive," the 寅 hour is more likely.

To fix this chart I actually spent a lot of time analyzing the differences between the two. Then, before we met, the subject messaged me: "Sorry, I gave you the wrong birth time. I wasn't born in the 2nd minute of the 卯 hour, I was born in the 22nd minute."

... ... So the 卯 hour chart was right, and the subject is indeed proactive about making money. Ha.
