Terms in this palace · Tap for a plain explanation

You are tough and willing to charge ahead and fight for things.

In this position, that becomes a pattern for building wealth.

Stars
Lian Zhen NatureCool outside and warm within, you have principles and real charm. You do best when your passion goes into the right things.
Qi Sha NatureYou have drive and nerve, the boldness of the General Star. Before you charge ahead, know your way back.
PersonalityYou're quick-tempered and your moods show on your face. Think things through once more before deciding, and you won't keep going back and forth.
Lian Zhen and Qi ShaClassical texts say Qi Sha sharing a palace with Lian Zhen points to losing one's life on the road. Today, it means putting traffic and travel safety first, and choosing to be a little late over rushing.“Tai Wei Fu”
Life Master Wu QuDeep down you are practical and hardworking, and you believe only results count. Leave some room for feelings too. Your Life Master sits in your Career Palace, so your thoughts often circle around work.
Patterns
Sha Po Lang (Killings, Breaker, Wolf)Your Life Palace sits on the Sha Po Lang line: life moves in big swings and you rarely sit still. Change is your fuel, but always leave yourself a way back.Classic pattern
Clash from OppositeQing Yang clashes in from the Travel Palace opposite: things are easily thrown off by outside events in your own life. Leave some margin on big decisions.
Transformations
Trines: Lu · JiShining in from the Career Palace (Po Jun Hua Lu) and the Wealth Palace (Tan Lang Hua Ji): resources back you up; when things stall over there, they stall here too.
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 CareerYour energy naturally goes into work, and it flows better the more you do. Look for a role you can grow in long-term.
Ji to FortuneYou often wrestle with your own thoughts and think a lot. Find something that lets you switch off.
Minor Stars
Tian XingYou are principled, follow the rules and hold yourself to a high standard. Self-discipline is a strength; just do not be too hard on yourself.
Tian GuiYou are easily appreciated, and someone often gives you a hand at key moments. Make the most of every chance to be seen.

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

Skipping graduation at UCLA

In 1965 Morrison graduated from UCLA's School of Theater, Film and Television with a bachelor's degree in cinematography. He refused to attend the graduation ceremony and went to Venice Beach in Los Angeles instead, and the university later mailed his diploma to his mother. In his chart, the Life Palace holds Qi Sha (Miao). Qi Sha is often read as making up one's own mind and not following convention, and the two can be read together.

Forming the band in the summer of 1965

In the summer of 1965 (nominal age 23), Morrison and Ray Manzarek, whom he had met a few months earlier while studying cinematography at UCLA, became the first two members of the Doors; Manzarek was impressed by Morrison's poetic lyrics, claiming that they were "rock group" material. He was then in the Decade Luck for nominal ages 16–25 (1958–1967), and in the decade's Four Transformations You Bi takes Hua Ke (Transformation of Fame) and enters his natal Friends Palace. The Friends Palace covers friends and companions; the two are worth setting side by side.

Six studio albums that all sold well

After forming, the band spent two years in obscurity before shooting to prominence with the US number-one single Light My Fire. Morrison recorded a total of six studio albums with the Doors, all of which sold well and many of which received critical acclaim. In his chart, the Career Palace holds Po Jun (Ping) with Hua Lu (Transformation of Wealth). The Career Palace covers career and Hua Lu is gain; the albums' success can be read against this.
