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 Spouse Palace, this page describes your chart. Tap a star name to read about it in the Spouse Palace.

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.
