How the opposite palace is pulled in
Ji clashes with the opposite Children Palace: how things are at home easily affects how you get along with the next generation.
When you read the birth-year Hua Ji, always look at the opposite palace too. Tradition says "Ji clashes with the opposite palace": the palace Ji sits in is what you care about, and the palace it clashes with is what gets pulled along. Further reading: Hua Ji in the Children Palace.
Which star takes Ji in your birth year
The birth-year Four Transformations are set by the heavenly stem of your birth year: people born in a Jia year get Hua Ji on one star, people born in a Yi year on another. The table lists the star for each of the ten stems. If that star sits in your Property Palace, this page describes your chart. Tap a star name to read about it in the Property Palace.
| Year stem | Star that takes Ji | The flavor of Ji it brings |
|---|---|---|
| Jia years (ending in 4) | Tai Yang | You give a lot and are not always understood. |
| Yi years (ending in 5) | Tai Yin | A busy mind; feelings tend to turn inward. |
| Bing years (ending in 6) | Lian Zhen | Emotional clashes and battles over principle. |
| Ding years (ending in 7) | Ju Men | Loose talk and misunderstandings. |
| Wu years (ending in 8) | Tian Ji | Overthinking and second-guessing decisions. |
| Ji years (ending in 9) | Wen Qu | Slips in speech or paperwork. |
| Geng years (ending in 0) | Tian Tong | You want an easy life but rarely get a break, and can feel low. |
| Xin years (ending in 1) | Wen Chang | Take extra care with documents and contracts. |
| Ren years (ending in 2) | Wu Qu | Pressure around money and responsibility. |
| Gui years (ending in 3) | Tan Lang | Wanting, and worrying about gain and loss. |
Zi Wei Dou Shu changes year on Lunar New Year’s Day, so if you were born in January or February, check your lunar year first. The year stem follows the last digit of the Western year (1984 and 1994, for example, are Jia years).
What we measured
How we counted: our engine cast one Zi Wei chart for every day from 1960 to 2005, with the birth hour drawn by a fixed-seed random sample, 16,802 charts in all. This shows how chart structures are distributed; it says nothing about anyone’s fortunes.
In our sample, about 7.9% of people have the birth-year Hua Ji in the Property Palace; the most common stars are Wen Chang (12.1%), Wu Qu (12.0%), Tan Lang (10.7%). Hua Ji spreads fairly evenly over the palaces, and no palace is especially rare. The real differences lie in which star takes Ji, how bright that star is, and what other stars share the palace or sit opposite it.
Advice
Handle family matters one at a time instead of carrying them all at once.

A straight word: Ji means care, not doom
Hua Ji marks what you care about most, hold on to hardest and pour the most into, and that is often where you grow the most depth. We do not follow the reading that "Ji means bad luck." We do not predict marriage, children, parents’ fortunes, wealth or health, and we do not read the Health Palace at all. Everything on this site is for reference and entertainment; base big decisions on your real circumstances.
