Tian Fu NatureYou are steady and good at holding what you build, thorough and quietly confident. Holding firm is your strength; now and then, dare to move.

What the Quan Shu says about this palaceZi Wei and Tian Fu depend wholly on the help of Zuo Fu and You Bi; Qi Sha and Po Jun owe their savagery solely to Qing Yang and Ling Xing.“Tai Wei Fu” ›To trace it to the source: Zi Wei is the imperial seat, and (the person it governs) is born with a solid and weighty face. Tian Fu is a venerable star, and it too gives a pure and mild build.“Xing Xing Fu” ›Zi Wei (in the Life Palace) is stout and full; Tian Fu full of vigour. Lu Cun and the Lu master should also be solid and weighty.“Xing Xing Fu” ›My Quan Shu (28 lines on this palace) ›

Where the chart lines up

Showing in New York in 1964

In September 1964 (nominal age 33), Valentino went to the United States to present a collection at a charity ball at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York. Jacqueline Kennedy could not attend, so he sent a model, a sales representative and a selection of key pieces to her Fifth Avenue apartment; she ordered six haute couture pieces. In the annual Four Transformations of 1964, Lian Zhen (Li) takes Hua Lu (Transformation of Wealth) into his natal Travel Palace. The Travel Palace covers going out, and Hua Lu stands for gains, which lines up with this trip to America.

Welcomed by New York society

In the 1970s Valentino spent a great deal of time in New York, where he was embraced by society figures such as Vogue editor-in-chief Diana Vreeland and the artist Andy Warhol. In his chart, the Friends Palace holds Tian Liang (Miao) with Hua Lu. The Friends Palace covers friends and one's social circle, and Hua Lu stands for good connections, which lines up with the welcome he found in New York society.

His parents backed his studies in Paris

Valentino was already interested in fashion in primary school, and later, with his parents' support, he went to Paris, where at 18 he studied at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the École de la Chambre Syndicale. When he opened his fashion house in Rome in 1960, he again had the backing of his father and a business associate. In his chart, the Parents Palace holds Tai Yin (Wang). Tai Yin is often read as care and nourishment, and the two are worth setting side by side.
