Major stars are archetypal tones
The fourteen major stars act like archetypes. Ziwei emphasises leadership and integration, Tian Ji strategy and movement, Tai Yang visibility and service, Wu Qu discipline and finance, Tian Tong softness and comfort, and Lian Zhen desire and boundaries.
No star is purely good or bad. A star's expression depends on palace placement, brightness, supporting stars, malefics, and the Four Transformations.
Read combinations, not labels
Qi Sha, Po Jun, and Tan Lang often indicate change, ambition, and breakthrough. Tian Fu, Tian Xiang, and Tian Liang often emphasise order, protection, and institutional support. Ju Men can be eloquence or argument, depending on context.
A mature reading asks how the star's strength can be used and how its shadow can be managed.
