Where the chart lines up
The most generous man in the world
The English playwright Watts Phillips, who knew Dumas in his later life, described him as "the most generous, large-hearted being in the world". In his chart, the Body Palace falls in the Travel Palace, which holds Tai Yang (Bu). The Travel Palace covers being out among people and dealing with others; Tai Yang is a star that shines, gives off warmth and shares its light. Being open-handed with people lines up with this star.
Source ↗His first staged play, 1829
On February 10, 1829 (nominal age 28), Henri III et sa cour, the first of Dumas's plays to be staged, opened at the Comédie-Française, attended by the Duke of Orléans, the future king. The play was very well received and is regarded as an important work in the development of French Romantic drama. In the annual Four Transformations of 1829, Tian Liang (Xian) takes Hua Ke (Transformation of Fame) and enters his natal Career Palace. The Career Palace covers career, and Hua Ke is reputation and being seen, which lines up with this play winning him recognition.
Source ↗Writing with a team of writers
Dumas depended heavily on assistants and collaborators, among them Auguste Maquet. He set up a writing studio whose writers produced hundreds of stories, each one under his personal direction, editing and additions. In his chart, the Friends Palace holds Wu Qu (Li) with Hua Ji (Transformation of Obstruction). The Friends Palace covers friends and collaborators, and Hua Ji is where effort and attention are needed. His personally overseeing his collaborators' drafts fits this position.
Source ↗A separate writing studio beside the mansion
In 1846 Dumas completed his mansion, the Château de Monte-Cristo, at Le Port-Marly outside Paris, and built a separate building beside it as his writing studio. In his chart, the Property Palace has Wen Chang (Li). The Property Palace covers the residence and the family home, and Wen Chang is the star of documents and the written word. Setting aside a building next to the house just for writing echoes this star.
