Hai is better than Si: authority heaviest, also hardest

Tianfu in Si/Hai in the Life Palace: opposite is Ziwei and Qisha, Wealth in Chou/Wei has no main star, Career is Tianxiang. The Southern Dipper main star faces the Northern Dipper main star—this group has the most authority among Tianfu placements. Tianfu is like a warehouse keeper, cautious and preserving; opposite Ziwei and Qisha gather killing qi into authority, preservation is washed thinner, the person is competitive, loves to hold authority, bold yet careful, manner still gentle. In stability, suddenly meeting noblemen, the path opens wide. Hai is better than Si: Tianfu belongs to earth, Hai is water, earth controlling water, the person is more modest and steadier; Parents and Property stars sit bright, the home is more harmonious, life more even, yet drive is less than Si. Si is fire, fire generating earth, the person is more willing to charge, yet fire blazing and earth dry, impatient, ups and downs large. Career Tianxiang in Mao/You is in fall, the seal has no force, authority is easily stuck; even with progress it is harder, suited to being a deputy in a large institution or to public teaching, not to starting a business.

Teacher Ming's reading: Tianfu in Si/Hai in the Life Palace

Students, do not first take heaviest authority as best for being the boss. I think Tianfu in Si/Hai, Southern and Northern Dipper main stars facing, preservation is washed thinner: the person is competitive, loves to hold authority, bold yet careful. Meeting noblemen in stability, the path opens wide. Career seal has no force; suited to being a deputy or to public teaching, not to starting a business.

Yi, Bing, and Wu years share much the same key: Lu filling the warehouse is what lets wealth-authority be used. If your year is not listed, do not panic—first learn this star group's temperament.

Difference between Tianfu in Si and in Hai

Career Tianxiang in fall drags Life into extra toil

Tianxiang in Mao/You is in fall, the seal has no force, authority is easily stuck; even with progress it is harder. Tianxiang meeting malefic stars again, or clamped by punishment and Ji, makes being number one even harder—suited to being a deputy.

Hai is steadier than Si; Si is more willing to charge and also more impatient

Hai earth controlling water: the person is modest, work is steady; Parents and Property stars are both bright, the home more harmonious, yet drive is less than Si. Si fire blazing and earth dry: more drive, also more impatient, ups and downs large.

Opposite Ziwei and Qisha: authority and desire both heaviest

Southern and Northern Dipper main stars facing gather killing qi into authority, preservation is washed thinner. The person is competitive, loves to hold authority, bold yet careful, manner still cautious. Meeting noblemen in stability, the path opens wide.

Study points: Tianfu in Si/Hai in the Life Palace

  1. Most likes the six auspicious stars coming to court. Wenchang, Wenqu, Tiankui, Tianyue, Zuofu, and Youbi coming together: the chest is wide, able to stand alone, name and money keep up. Without the six auspicious stars, the person easily isolates; stacking Dikong and Dijie, even less help.
  2. Tianxiang clamped by a wealth star and a shade star can patch a weak seal. Mao/You Tianxiang in fall most likes being clamped, or having Zuofu, Youbi, Tiankui, and Tianyue come to support. Once the seal is steady, Tianfu plants its feet; gain and development are both larger, work can be planted, authority can be held.
  3. Meeting Tiankui and Tianyue suits finance. Tianfu holds wealth-authority, already skilled at investment and money management. Meeting Kui and Yue again, more suited to finance and economics units, a better match for unfolding; money and authority both can be used—more on-point than opening a shop on one’s own.
  4. Lucun in the same palace fears being clamped by Qingyang, Tuoluo, Huoxing, and Lingxing. Though Lucun is liked, front and back it will be clamped by Qingyang and Tuoluo, and drive easily shrinks. Clamped by Huoxing and Lingxing again: round on the surface, means hidden inside, life easily capsizes, the field cannot be kept.
  5. Dikong and Dijie arriving is an empty warehouse. The person is withdrawn and suspicious, rapport is poor. Even with wealth stars and talent, business is not advisable; money that comes is easily ruined, the path more rugged. An empty warehouse most fears being used to open a company—opening easily ruins it.
  6. Wealth and Fortune meeting Wuqu or Tanlang Hua Lu: the warehouse is thick. These two stars Hua Lu shining in: the warehouse is richer, the chest wider, the person does not look so petty, the field can open, nobility can show; with a thick warehouse the person also counts less.
  7. No Lu is an empty warehouse. Lucun or Hua Lu must be met before the warehouse has something in it, and wealth-authority can be used. Without Lu, the person easily withdraws, the warehouse is empty, the nature easily shrinks, and the path narrows with it.

Teacher Ming's reading: how to read Tianfu in Si/Hai

To wrap this up. Tianfu in Si/Hai: authority heaviest, also hardest. Opposite Ziwei and Qisha gather killing qi into authority. Tianxiang in fall, authority is easily stuck. Most likes the six auspicious stars coming to court; Tianxiang being clamped can patch a weak seal. No Lu is an empty warehouse; Dikong and Dijie arriving empties it further.

I think three lines are enough for students to remember. First, the warehouse needs Lu before wealth-authority can be used. Second, the seal is weak; suited to being a deputy, do not grab the first chair. Third, meeting Tiankui and Tianyue, finance is more on-point than opening a shop on one’s own.
