Love Luck That Looks Great, Yet Trouble After Trouble

AI translated from the original Chinese.

Ms. L is beautiful but dresses simply, and has dated only two people. Her first love had emotional problems and was violent; the man she married was excellent in every way, but after many years of marriage he had an affair. She wanted to understand whether she should divorce, and so came for a reading.

Opening the chart, this chart's 紅鸞 (Hong Luan) and 天喜 (Tian Xi) seem to have the six auspicious stars concentrated, so why was her love luck poor both times? The key, in fact, lies in the partners she met.

The usual reading of 紅鸞 and 天喜

1. 天喜 sits in the 丑 Palace and sees the "six auspicious stars": 左輔 and 右弼 (Zuo Fu, You Bi), 昌曲 (Chang Qu) and 魁鉞 (Kui Yue) are all there. This can speak of the partner
2. 化祿 ● shows strongly in the 丑 Palace. Generally, there will be many suitors, and the partner she finally chooses will be quite outstanding.

So from the chart, Ms. L easily finds partners who are smart, funny and quick-witted. And in fact her spouse did show these qualities.

But why the affair, then?

"Evil patterns" damage an excellent pattern

武曲 and 貪狼 (Wu Qu, Tan Lang) are exalted in 丑 and see the six auspicious stars, but:

1. 貪狼 seeing 昌曲, if catalyzed by auspicious stars, may form the "nimble and adaptable pattern," but in this chart 化忌 × also damage the 丑 Palace, so when it also sees malefics, it becomes the "政事顛倒格" (affairs-of-state upside down pattern).
2. 武曲 and 貪狼 in 丑 see 擎羊 (Qing Yang), 陀羅 (Tuo Luo) and 鈴星 (Ling Xing). Add the 武曲, 貪狼 and 昌曲 of the 丑 Palace, and isn't that the "鈴昌陀武格" and the "政事顛倒格"? Moreover, 鈴星 with 武曲 is also called the "lonely widow pattern." At most we can say the malefics come from outside, so the destructive force isn't especially great. But an evil pattern is an evil pattern after all, and still has negative effects.

So the marriage in this chart is envied by all on the surface, but in truth it hides bitterness she can't speak of. Ms. L later decided to file for divorce; at the very least, since her husband was the one who had the affair, she ought to receive more compensation.

Conclusion

Looking on the bright side of a chart, there are of course still good readings, but being too optimistic makes people overlook the ill patterns hidden within.

In my reading experience, many people at the time of the reading, perhaps because "what they're asking about is going very well" or because "they don't want to admit failure," will firmly deny a poor result, even declaring outright that the fortune-teller is inaccurate.

But a reading is mainly about predicting the future. Everything in progress is time-bound and continuous. So telling someone the result is only to urge them to cut their losses in time. If they still cling to their delusion, and only admit the reading was right once things can't be undone, it's too late.

In the next two articles, we'll bring in the data of her first love and of her spouse, to see more closely why they treated her this way.
