Which star takes Lu 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 Lu 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 Mind Palace, this page describes your chart. Tap a star name to read about it in the Mind Palace.
| Year stem | Star that takes Lu | The flavor of Lu it brings |
|---|---|---|
| Jia years (ending in 4) | Lian Zhen | Charm and social skill open doors; romance runs high too. |
| Yi years (ending in 5) | Tian Ji | Ideas and change bring openings. |
| Bing years (ending in 6) | Tian Tong | Harmony and enjoyment: the Lu that feels most like good fortune. |
| Ding years (ending in 7) | Tai Yin | Patience and steady accumulation, with a bond to money and home. |
| Wu years (ending in 8) | Tan Lang | Socializing and talent bring chances, and desires grow with them. |
| Ji years (ending in 9) | Wu Qu | Hard cash and getting things done: the most tangible Lu. |
| Geng years (ending in 0) | Tai Yang | Giving and visibility pay you back. |
| Xin years (ending in 1) | Ju Men | Eloquence and expertise bring openings. |
| Ren years (ending in 2) | Tian Liang | Shelter and care; the old texts warn that gain can stir up disputes. |
| Gui years (ending in 3) | Po Jun | Change and new ventures open a fresh chapter. |
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 8.7% of people have the birth-year Hua Lu in the Mind Palace; the most common stars are Tian Ji (11.8%), Tai Yang (11.4%), Ju Men (10.7%). Hua Lu spreads fairly evenly over the palaces, and no palace is especially rare. The real differences lie in which star takes Lu, how bright that star is, and what other stars share the palace or sit opposite it.
Advice
Enjoy life, and keep a little back for the future.

A straight word: Hua Lu is a plus, not a promise
Hua Lu shows where affinity, ease and flow gather in your life. It is a tendency, not a guaranteed outcome. We do not predict marriage, children, parents’ fortunes, wealth or health, and we do not read the Health Palace. Everything on this site is for reference and entertainment and is not investment, financial or real estate advice.
