Qing Yang in Zi Wei Dou Shu: Drive, directness and competition
Qing Yang is a Sha star with a hard, straight, fast nature: strong drive, a readiness to compete, blunt speech, and an easy tendency to clash with people.
What Qing Yang is
The classics say many negative things about Qing Yang; this site does not adopt them. A modern reading: Qing Yang gives you nerve and drive, and its lesson is learning when to brake.
- Strong drive, quick to act
- Blunt and ready to compete
- Highly competitive
How Qing Yang is placed
Qing Yang is placed by the birth-year stem and is tied to Lu Cun: Qing Yang is always one box forward from Lu Cun and Tuo Luo one box back, so the pair flanks Lu Cun on both sides.
| Year stem | Qing Yang in | Tuo Luo in |
|---|---|---|
| Jia | Mao | Chou |
| Yi | Chen | Yin |
| Bing | Wu | Chen |
| Ding | Wei | Si |
| Wu | Wu | Chen |
| Ji | Wei | Si |
| Geng | You | Wei |
| Xin | Xu | Shen |
| Ren | Zi | Xu |
| Gui | Chou | Hai |
The table was worked back from real charts cast by this site’s engine, the same rules as the chart tool. Zi Wei changes years at Chinese New Year, and births after 23:00 count as the Zi hour of the next day. Qing Yang never falls in Yin, Si, Shen and Hai.

The other auspicious and Sha stars
A straight word: a Sha star is a quality, not a verdict
The six Sha stars show where qualities such as drive, delay, haste or emptiness land. This site does not adopt the negative verdicts of the classics and does not read the Health Palace. Many people’s strengths and breakthroughs are ground out precisely in the palace of a Sha star. Everything here is for reference and entertainment and is not investment or financial advice.
