Someone smooths your words and vouches for you.

Terms in this palace · Tap for a plain explanation

Someone smooths your words and vouches for you.

Your reputation and income both stand firm. Ju Men Hua Ji sits here too, so there is always one knot in this area that's hard to let go of.

Stars
Tai Yang NatureYou are warm and love looking after people, giving without keeping score. When you shine this much, save some light for yourself.
Ju Men NatureYou speak plainly and love getting to the bottom of things, spotting what others miss. Soften how you say it, and there is less friction.
Auspicious Stars PresentBenefactors connect you and point you to opportunities. Work built on expertise or speaking suits you.
Off-CenterClassical texts also say an off-center Tai Yang meeting the dark star means poverty and low standing beyond words. Today, it means saving money to a plan, and not getting carried away by a passing enthusiasm.
Partner TiesTai Yang sinking west meets Ju Men, and classical texts say a woman here has incomplete ties with a partner. Today, it means putting more into the relationship and keeping gossip out.“What Does Tai Yang Govern?”
Life Master Lian ZhenYou carry a firm inner yardstick and strong emotions. When principle and passion live side by side, you shine. Your Life Master sits in your Health Palace, so your thoughts often circle around body and mind.
Patterns
Ju Ri Tong Gong (Gate and Sun Together)Tai Yang and Ju Men in Shen hold your Life Palace, the setting sun lighting the dark: your words carry weight, but act before you talk, and do not let your tongue get ahead of your ability.Classic pattern
Transformations
Ju Men Hua JiYou tend to swallow your words and go over them again and again, arguing with yourself. Separate facts from imagination, and don't let doubt eat up your strength.
This part follows the Flying Star school: where this palace's stem sends its transformations. It is a different method from the classical reading above.
Lu to SiblingsThe palace stem sends Tan Lang Hua Lu into your Siblings Palace: when things go well here, the benefits show up with your peers too.

The Life Palace is about: Who you are at the core: your temperament and innate makeup. Every chart reading starts here.

Where the chart lines up

From the school chorus to studying voice

In her last two years of high school, Coretta was the leading soprano of the senior chorus; she then went on a scholarship to the New England Conservatory to study voice, earning a degree in voice and piano. After her marriage she also gave concerts, using song to tell the story of the Montgomery bus boycott. In her chart, the Life Palace holds Ju Men (Miao) with Hua Ji. Ju Men corresponds to the mouth and the voice, and Hua Ji is where thought and effort must go. Years of practicing her singing fit this star.

Taking "obey" out of the wedding vows

On June 18, 1953, Coretta and Martin Luther King Jr. were married on the lawn of her mother's house. She had the vow to obey her husband removed from the ceremony, which was unusual for the time. In her chart, the Spouse Palace holds Tian Tong (Xian) with Hua Quan (Transformation of Power). Hua Quan corresponds to taking the lead and having views of one's own. Deciding for herself on the wording of her wedding vows matches this palace.

Ten days in South Africa, 1986

In September 1986, Coretta made a ten-day visit to South Africa, meeting Allan Boesak and Winnie Mandela; she called her meeting with Winnie Mandela "one of the greatest and most meaningful moments of my life." Back in the United States, she urged Ronald Reagan to approve economic sanctions against South Africa. In 1986 (nominal age 60), her annual Life Palace moved to the natal Travel Palace. The Travel Palace covers going out and being away, and this year's long journey to South Africa lines up with that annual position.

CNN commentator and a theology course

In 1979 and 1980, Coretta and Noel Erskine co-taught a course on "The Theology of Martin Luther King, Jr." at the Candler School of Theology at Emory University; on September 29, 1980, Ted Turner announced her signing as a commentator for CNN. In her chart, the Career Palace holds Wen Qu (De). Wen Qu corresponds to eloquence and literary flair. Work done through teaching and commentary lines up with this star.
