〈疾厄宮〉
The Complete Book of Zi Wei Dou Shu, Volume 2: Placing the stars and the twelve palaces · Original text with translation
Introduction
This chapter comes from the palace-by-palace verdicts in volume two of the Complete Book of Zi Wei Dou Shu and covers the Health Palace, which shows a person's body, illnesses and misfortunes.
- General rule (segment 1): first see whether the stars of the Life Palace are Xian and whether Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong, Di Jie or Hua Ji guard or face it; then look at whether the stars of the Health Palace are benign or harmful, Miao, Wang or Xian, and judge the two together.
- Star by star (segments 2 to 22): for each star in the Health Palace, whether it brings 「災少」 (few misfortunes) or 「災多」 (many), and which kinds of illness: head wind, eye disease, disorders of blood and qi, heart-and-qi ailments, ailments of the lower body, hemorrhoids, sores, 'wind' diseases, and, with malefic stars added, 「傷殘」 (injury and disability) and 「破相」 (a scarred face).
- The Dou Jun (segment 23).
These disease names are the old ones. The translation renders them literally, and the notes give their rough meaning: 「頭風」 is headache and the like; 「血氣之疾」 is blood and qi out of balance; 「心氣疾」 is illness of the chest, heart and breath; 「下部疾」 is illness of the lower body, from the waist down; and 「瘋疾」 in old books mostly means wind diseases, such as stroke or leprosy, though the text does not specify. This is the classification of an old book, not a basis for medical judgment.
Miswritten characters in the base text: the 濃 in 「瘡癩濃血」 should be 膿 (pus); the 玫 in 「玫暗疾」 should be 致; the 免 in 「酒免之疾」 is probably 色, giving illness from wine and women; and the 「羊鈴」 of segment 22 should, by its position, be the Ling Xing entry. The text notes on each segment explain.
1先看命宮星曜落陷加羊陀火鈴空劫化忌守照如何，又看疾厄宮星曜善惡廟旺落陷如何斷之。
TranslationFirst look at whether the stars of the Life Palace are in Xian positions, and how Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong, Di Jie and Hua Ji guard or face it; then look at whether the stars of the Health Palace are benign or harmful, Miao, Wang or Xian, and judge accordingly.
The Health Palace chapter opens by saying: look at the Life Palace first, then the Health Palace. Stars in the Life Palace that are Xian and meet malefic stars or Hua Ji show the underlying constitution; the stars of the Health Palace decide the kind of illness. This is the Quan Shu's order for reading health, and a reminder not to judge from the Health Palace alone. The palace opposite the Health Palace is always the Parents Palace, and the old readers also tied one's inborn constitution to one's parents. The Quan Shu's disease names are mostly terms of old medicine; today they read as 'parts of the body or tendencies prone to trouble', and they are no substitute for a medical diagnosis.
2紫微災少，天府同亦少，天相同皮胎勞，如加破軍血氣不和，同羊鈴主有暗疾，加空劫主疢疾心氣疾。
TranslationZi Wei in the Health Palace: few misfortunes. With Tian Fu, also few; with Tian Xiang, 'skin and womb' wasting; if Po Jun is added, blood and qi out of balance; with Qing Yang and Ling Xing, hidden illness; with Di Kong and Di Jie added, fevers and heart-and-qi ailments.
- 皮胎勞
- Unclear; some read 皮胎 as a miswriting for 'spleen and stomach', giving wasting of the digestive organs. Translated literally.
- 暗疾
- A hidden illness that does not show outwardly.
- 疢疾
- 疢 is a fever; the phrase means illness in general.
Zi Wei in the Health Palace, 「災少」: with the emperor star in charge, the body has a sound base. With Tian Fu (Yin, Shen), also few; with Tian Xiang (Chen, Xu), 「皮胎勞」, wasting of the skin and the inborn constitution. With Po Jun added (Zi Wei with Po Jun in Chou or Wei), blood and qi out of balance; with Qing Yang and Ling Xing, hidden illness; with Di Kong and Di Jie, 「疢疾心氣疾」, fevers and heart-and-qi trouble. Of the three pairings named here, Zi Wei with Tian Fu is steadiest and Zi Wei with Po Jun the weakest. Overall health is not bad, but under heavy stress the heart, circulation and sleep deserve attention. See Zi Wei in the Health Palace.
3天機襁褓多災，陷地頭面破相，巨門同血氣疾，天梁同下部疾，太陰同瘡災，加羊火陷宮有目疾，四肢無力。
TranslationTian Ji in the Health Palace: many misfortunes in infancy; in a Xian position, a scarred head and face. With Ju Men, disorders of blood and qi; with Tian Liang, ailments of the lower body; with Tai Yin, sores; with Qing Yang and Huo Xing added in a Xian palace, eye disease and weakness in the four limbs.
- 襁褓
- Swaddling clothes: infancy.
- 下部疾
- Ailments of the lower body, from the waist down.
Tian Ji in the Health Palace, 「襁褓多災」: a frail early childhood. In a Xian position, a scarred head and face. With Ju Men (Mao, You), blood and qi disorders; with Tian Liang (Chen, Xu), 「下部疾」, illness below the waist; with Tai Yin (Yin, Shen), sores. With Qing Yang and Huo Xing in a Xian palace, eye disease and weak limbs. Tian Ji belongs to wood, which in Chinese medicine corresponds to the liver and the sinews, so later writers often link Tian Ji to the nerves and the limbs. See Tian Ji in the Health Palace.
4太陽頭風，太陰同加化忌，羊陀主眼目有傷，陷宮亦主目疾欠光明。
TranslationTai Yang in the Health Palace: head wind. With Tai Yin plus Hua Ji, Qing Yang or Tuo Luo, injury to the eyes; in a Xian palace, also eye disease, the eyes lacking light.
- 頭風
- Head wind: headaches and similar complaints.
Tai Yang in the Health Palace means 「頭風」: headaches and illness of the head. In the old view Tai Yang corresponds to the eyes and the head, so with Tai Yin (Chou, Wei) plus Hua Ji, Qing Yang or Tuo Luo, the eyes are injured, and in a Xian palace (Hai, Zi) there is eye disease as well. The sun and moon together in the Health Palace, in a Jia year when Tai Yang takes Hua Ji or a Yi year when Tai Yin does, is what the Quan Shu means by 「忌同日月則傷親損目」, Hua Ji with the sun or moon harms one's kin and the eyes (Qing Yang and Tuo Luo: Overview). When the sun or moon taking Hua Ji counts as good and when as bad, depending on its brightness, is discussed separately in The Nature of the Four Transformations. Seen today, care of the eyes and head is the priority. See Tai Yang in the Health Palace.
5武曲襁褓災迍手足頭面有傷，羊陀同一生常有災，天相同招暗疾，七殺同血疾，貪狼同廟旺無疾，陷地加四殺，眼手足疾痔疾瘋瘡。
TranslationWu Qu in the Health Palace: misfortune and hardship in infancy, injuries to the hands, feet, head and face. With Qing Yang and Tuo Luo, frequent misfortune all one's life; with Tian Xiang, hidden illness; with Qi Sha, blood ailments; with Tan Lang, in Miao or Wang, no illness, but in a Xian position with the four malefic stars added, ailments of the eyes, hands and feet, hemorrhoids, and wind sores.
- 災迍
- Misfortune and hardship.
- 瘋瘡
- Unclear; roughly, wind diseases and infected sores.
Wu Qu in the Health Palace: misfortune in infancy and injuries to the hands, feet, head and face. Wu Qu belongs to metal, and metal rules blade wounds and the bones, hence the emphasis on injuries. With Qing Yang and Tuo Luo, frequent misfortune all one's life; with Tian Xiang (Yin, Shen), hidden illness; with Qi Sha (Mao, You), blood ailments; with Tan Lang (Chou, Wei), no illness in Miao or Wang, and in Xian with malefic stars, eyes, hands and feet, hemorrhoids and wind sores. On a chart, though, Wu Qu and Tan Lang share a palace only in Chou and Wei, where both are always Miao, so the 'Xian' half of this line never actually arises for the pair. Wu Qu with Qi Sha in the Health Palace stacks metal on the general star, and the tendency to bloodshed is clearest there. See Wu Qu in the Health Palace.
6天同入廟災少，巨門同心氣疾，太陰同加羊火血氣疾，天梁同加四殺心氣疾。
TranslationTian Tong in the Health Palace: in its temple, few misfortunes. With Ju Men, heart-and-qi ailments; with Tai Yin plus Qing Yang and Huo Xing, disorders of blood and qi; with Tian Liang plus the four malefic stars, heart-and-qi ailments.
- 心氣疾
- Ailments of the heart, chest and breath.
Tian Tong in its temple: few misfortunes. Tian Tong is the star of blessing, so in the Health Palace the body mostly comes to no great harm. With Ju Men (Chou, Wei), heart-and-qi ailments; with Tai Yin (Zi, Wu) plus Qing Yang and Huo Xing, blood and qi disorders; with Tian Liang (Yin, Shen) plus the four malefic stars, heart-and-qi ailments. In old medicine, 'heart and qi' meant the working of the heart and the flow of qi; today it can be read as cardiovascular problems and trouble tied to mood and stress. Tian Tong takes Hua Ji in Geng years, so Tian Tong in the Health Palace calls for extra care in those years. See Tian Tong in the Health Palace.
7廉貞襁褓災瘡腰足之疾，入廟加吉和平，遇貪狼同，陷地眼疾災多，七殺破軍天府同災少。
TranslationLian Zhen in the Health Palace: misfortune and sores in infancy, ailments of the waist and feet; in its temple with lucky stars added, peaceful. With Tan Lang in a Xian position, eye disease and many misfortunes; with Qi Sha, Po Jun or Tian Fu, few misfortunes.
Lian Zhen in the Health Palace: misfortune and sores in infancy, trouble with the waist and feet. In its temple (Yin, Shen) with lucky stars, peaceful. With Tan Lang in a Xian position (Si, Hai), eye disease and many misfortunes: both stars are Xian there and both are peach-blossom stars, which later writers often read as illness tied to lifestyle habits. With Qi Sha, Po Jun or Tian Fu, few misfortunes: Tian Fu steadies it, and Qi Sha and Po Jun burn off Lian Zhen's fire. See Lian Zhen in the Health Palace.
8天府災少臨災有救，紫微同災少，加羊陀火鈴空劫有瘋疾，廉貞同加劫殺空亡，半途傷殘。
TranslationTian Fu in the Health Palace: few misfortunes, and rescue when misfortune comes. With Zi Wei, few misfortunes; with Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie added, wind disease; with Lian Zhen, plus Di Jie and other malefic stars and the void, injury or disability partway through life.
- 瘋疾
- In old books mostly wind diseases, such as stroke or leprosy; the text does not specify.
Tian Fu in the Health Palace, 「災少，臨災有救」: Tian Fu is what the Tian Fu chapter calls 「延壽解厄之星」, the star that lengthens life and dispels trouble (What Does Tian Fu Govern?), and the Health Palace is where that shows most. With Zi Wei, few misfortunes; with malefic stars, wind disease; with Lian Zhen (Chen, Xu) plus Di Jie, malefic stars and the void, 「半途傷殘」, disability partway through life. With Tian Fu in the Health Palace, the Parents Palace opposite always holds Qi Sha: a strong inborn constitution, but a tougher bond with the parents. See Tian Fu in the Health Palace.
9太陰廟旺無災，陷地災多主勞傷之症，女人主大傷殘，
TranslationTai Yin in the Health Palace: in Miao or Wang, no misfortune; in a Xian position, many misfortunes, with illness from exhaustion; for a woman, serious injury or disability.
- 勞傷
- Damage from overwork; old books also call it depletion.
Tai Yin in Miao or Wang: no misfortune; in Xian: many misfortunes, illness from exhaustion, and 「女人主大傷殘」, serious injury for a woman. Tai Yin belongs to water and stands for yin, blood and women, hence the special mention of women's charts. Tai Yin is Xian in Mao, Chen and Si, which Xingge marks. Exhaustion damage is wear from overwork. With Tai Yin Xian in the Health Palace, daily rhythms and hormonal balance need looking after, and gynecological care matters especially for women. See Tai Yin in the Health Palace.
10若太陽同加吉美一生災少，羊陀火鈴眼目疾，加空劫有瘋疾，天同同加羊陀，陷宮主加症同火鈴多災。
Translation(Tai Yin) if with Tai Yang plus lucky stars, few misfortunes all one's life; with Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing or Ling Xing, eye disease; with Di Kong and Di Jie added, wind disease. With Tian Tong plus Qing Yang and Tuo Luo, in a Xian palace, an 'added ailment'; with Huo Xing and Ling Xing, many misfortunes.
Textual note: 「陷宮主加症」 makes no sense as it stands and probably contains a miswritten character; the translation keeps it as written.
This continues Tai Yin: with Tai Yang (Chou, Wei) and lucky stars, few misfortunes all one's life; with malefic stars, eye disease; with Di Kong and Di Jie, wind disease. With the sun and moon together in the Health Palace, the eyes are the shared weak point. With Tian Tong (Zi, Wu) plus Qing Yang and Tuo Luo in a Xian palace, 「加症」, which the text note marks as not making sense. Of Tai Yin with Tian Tong in Zi or Wu, both stars are weak in Wu (Tai Yin Bu, Tian Tong Xian), so the bad case should be Wu.
11巨門少年膿血之厄，太陽同有頭瘋疽，天同同下部主有瘋症，加羊火酒免之疾，加忌有耳目之憂。
TranslationJu Men in the Health Palace: in youth, misfortune of pus and blood. With Tai Yang, head wind and abscesses; with Tian Tong, wind disease of the lower body; with Qing Yang and Huo Xing added, illness from wine and women; with Hua Ji added, worries over the ears and eyes.
- 疽
- An abscess, a deep infected sore.
Textual note: The 免 in 「酒免之疾」 is probably an error for 色; the translation follows 酒色, wine and women.
Ju Men in the Health Palace: misfortune of pus and blood in youth. With Tai Yang (Yin, Shen), head wind and abscesses; with Tian Tong (Chou, Wei), wind disease of the lower body; with Qing Yang and Huo Xing, illness from wine and women (following the text note); with Hua Ji, worries over ears and eyes. Ju Men's transformed qi is darkness, and hidden or concealed illness is its mark in the Health Palace. Ju Men takes Hua Ji in Ding years, so Ju Men in the Health Palace in a Ding year calls for care of the ears, eyes and mouth. See Ju Men in the Health Palace.
12天相災少面皮黃腫血氣之疾，紫微同災少，武曲同加四殺破相，廉貞同加空劫手足傷。
TranslationTian Xiang in the Health Palace: few misfortunes; a sallow, puffy face and skin; disorders of blood and qi. With Zi Wei, few misfortunes; with Wu Qu plus the four malefic stars, a scarred face; with Lian Zhen plus Di Kong and Di Jie, injuries to the hands and feet.
Tian Xiang in the Health Palace: few misfortunes, with 「面皮黃腫、血氣之疾」, a sallow, swollen face and blood and qi disorders. Tian Xiang belongs to water, linked to the skin, swelling and metabolism. With Zi Wei (Chen, Xu), few misfortunes; with Wu Qu (Yin, Shen) plus the four malefic stars, a scarred face; with Lian Zhen (Zi, Wu) plus Di Kong and Di Jie, injured hands and feet. Tian Xiang is always flanked by Ju Men and Tian Liang, so with Tian Xiang in the Health Palace, its neighbors the Wealth Palace and the Travel Palace hold Ju Men on one side and Tian Liang on the other. See Tian Xiang in the Health Palace.
13七殺幼年多災，長主痔疾，武曲同加四殺手足傷殘，廉貞同主目疾，加擎羊四肢有傷殘。
TranslationQi Sha in the Health Palace: many misfortunes in childhood; grown up, hemorrhoids. With Wu Qu plus the four malefic stars, injured or disabled hands and feet; with Lian Zhen, eye disease; with Qing Yang added, injury or disability in the four limbs.
Qi Sha: many misfortunes in childhood, hemorrhoids once grown. Qi Sha is the general star, so in the Health Palace it means a tendency to physical injury, and is also linked to illness of the bowel and lower body. With Wu Qu (Mao, You) plus malefic stars, injured or disabled hands and feet; with Lian Zhen (Chou, Wei), eye disease; with Qing Yang, injured or disabled limbs. The Qi Sha chapter says 「逢刑忌殺於遷移、疾厄，終身殘疾」 (What Does Qi Sha Govern?), lifelong disability when it meets punishment, Hua Ji and malefic stars in the Travel or Health Palace, which is consistent. See Qi Sha in the Health Palace.
14破軍幼年瘡癩濃血羸黃，武曲同目視疾，紫微同災少，廉貞同加羊火四肢有傷殘。
TranslationPo Jun in the Health Palace: in childhood, sores and scabies, pus and blood, thin and sallow. With Wu Qu, trouble with eyesight; with Zi Wei, few misfortunes; with Lian Zhen plus Qing Yang and Huo Xing, injury or disability in the four limbs.
- 癩
- Scabies and similar skin disease; also leprosy.
- 羸黃
- Thin and sallow.
Textual note: The 濃 in 「濃血」 should be 膿, pus.
Po Jun: sores, scabies, pus and blood in childhood, 'thin and sallow'. Po Jun's transformed qi is waste, so in the Health Palace its illnesses are the wasting kind. With Wu Qu (Si, Hai), trouble with eyesight; with Zi Wei (Chou, Wei), few misfortunes; with Lian Zhen (Mao, You) plus Qing Yang and Huo Xing, injured or disabled limbs. The Po Jun chapter says Po Jun 「在疾厄致尪羸之疾」 (What Does Po Jun Govern?), wasting and frailty in the Health Palace. Today that means heavy drain on one's energy, and a need to mind nutrition and rest.
15文昌獨守災少，加羊陀火鈴空劫災多，同諸吉星一生無災。
TranslationWen Chang guarding the Health Palace alone: few misfortunes. With Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie added, many misfortunes; with the lucky stars, no misfortune all one's life.
Wen Chang alone in the Health Palace: few misfortunes; with malefic stars, many; with lucky stars, none all one's life. 'Alone' here means Wen Chang sits in the Health Palace without a main star. The Quan Shu's Health Palace entry for Wen Chang is very simple, just good or bad with no named illness, which shows that the old readers did not treat Wen Chang as a star that governs disease.
16文曲災少加吉星一世無災，加羊陀火鈴空劫，坐陷宮災有。
TranslationWen Qu in the Health Palace: few misfortunes; with lucky stars added, no misfortune all one's life. With Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie added, and sitting in a Xian palace, there is misfortune.
Wen Qu: few misfortunes, none all one's life with lucky stars; with malefic stars and in a Xian palace, misfortune. Volume three's table puts Wen Qu's Xian positions in Yin, Wu and Xu, while Xingge, following the brightness table in volume two, marks only Wu and Xu as Xian, with Yin as Ping. The entry is built like Wen Chang's, with the extra condition of a Xian palace. Wen Qu belongs to water, and some later writers tie it to the urinary tract or kidneys, but the Quan Shu does not say so; here it speaks only of whether misfortune comes.
17左輔獨守平和，加吉星災少，見羊陀火鈴空劫常有災。
TranslationZuo Fu guarding the Health Palace alone: peaceful; with lucky stars added, few misfortunes; seeing Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie, frequent misfortune.
Zuo Fu alone: peaceful; with lucky stars, few misfortunes; with malefic stars, frequent misfortune. A helper star's role in the Health Palace is 'someone to look after you': help when illness comes. A reliable caregiver nearby, so that illness is dealt with in time.
18右弼獨守逢災有救，見羊陀火鈴空劫災多。
TranslationYou Bi guarding the Health Palace alone: rescue when misfortune comes; seeing Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong or Di Jie, many misfortunes.
You Bi alone, 「逢災有救」: throughout the Quan Shu You Bi is written as able to bear malefic stars, and in the Health Palace that means rescue when ill and help when misfortune strikes. With malefic stars, many misfortunes. Read beside the Zuo Fu entry, You Bi's 'rescue' is a little more active than Zuo Fu's 'peaceful'.
19祿存少年多災，加吉星災少，見羊陀火鈴四肢必傷殘，加空劫玫暗疾延生。
TranslationLu Cun in the Health Palace: many misfortunes in youth; with lucky stars added, few. Seeing Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing or Ling Xing, the four limbs are sure to be injured or disabled; with Di Kong and Di Jie added, it leads to hidden illness, and so life is prolonged.
- 延生
- To prolong life. Old books often say that an injury or illness can lengthen life.
Textual note: The 玫 in 「玫暗疾」 should be 致, 'leads to'.
Lu Cun in the Health Palace: many misfortunes in youth, few with lucky stars; with Qing Yang, Tuo Luo, Huo Xing or Ling Xing, injured or disabled limbs; with Di Kong and Di Jie, hidden illness that lengthens life, another case of the Quan Shu's idea of illness warding off disaster. With Lu Cun in the Health Palace, Qing Yang and Tuo Luo always sit in the Wealth and Travel Palaces, flanking it, so 'seeing Qing Yang and Tuo Luo' is almost a given, and the real conditions are Huo Xing, Ling Xing, Di Kong and Di Jie.
20陀羅幼年災，磨唇齒頭面，有傷破方可延壽。
TranslationTuo Luo in the Health Palace: misfortune in childhood; the lips, teeth, head and face are worn; only with an injury or a scar can life be prolonged.
Tuo Luo in the Health Palace: misfortune in childhood, wear to the lips, teeth, head and face, and 「有傷破方可延壽」, only an injury lengthens life. Tuo Luo rules delay and grinding wear, so in the Health Palace it means small, chronic, recurring injuries. Here again is the idea of 'a scar lengthens life': a small injury blocks a big disaster. In daily life: care of the teeth and mouth should start young.
21擎羊有頭瘋之症，或四肢欠力，頭面破相延壽，加吉星災少。
TranslationQing Yang in the Health Palace: head wind, or weakness in the four limbs; a scarred head and face prolong life; with lucky stars added, few misfortunes.
Qing Yang in the Health Palace: head wind or weak limbs, a scarred head and face that lengthen life, and few misfortunes with lucky stars. Qing Yang is the punishment star, the blade, so in the Health Palace it stands for physical injury and surgery. People with Qing Yang here have a higher chance of surgery or injury over a lifetime; safety precautions and regular checkups are the most practical response.
22羊鈴主一生災少，身體健旺伶俐。
TranslationLing Xing in the Health Palace: few misfortunes all one's life; a strong, healthy body and a quick mind.
Textual note: The base text has 「羊鈴主一生災少」. Qing Yang already had its entry in the previous segment, and this one stands where Huo Xing and Ling Xing belong, so it should be the Ling Xing entry, probably 鈴星. The chapter also has no entry for Huo Xing, so another possibility is a miswritten 火鈴. The translation follows 鈴星.
Following the text note, this entry is read as Ling Xing: few misfortunes all one's life, a strong, healthy body and a quick mind. It is a rare positive verdict for a malefic star in the Health Palace. Ling Xing belongs to fire, and fire rules vitality, so in the Health Palace it actually means plenty of energy. The note points out that the original may be 火鈴, and the chapter is indeed missing a Huo Xing entry. In today's words: lots of energy, with burnout to guard against.
23斗君遇吉身心安寧其年無災。遇凶殺本生人有畏忌其年多災。
TranslationWhen the Dou Jun meets lucky stars, body and mind are at peace and that year is free of misfortune. Meeting malefic and killing stars, whatever the native has cause to fear comes up, and that year brings many misfortunes.
- 斗君
- Dou Jun: the palace where the first lunar month falls within a given year; the months are counted from it.
In the year the Dou Jun reaches the Health Palace, lucky stars mean peace of body and mind; malefic stars mean 「本生人有畏忌」: the illness tendencies already in the natal chart are set off that year. As with the Dou Jun entry for the Spouse Palace, the stress is on the natal foundation deciding how heavy a year's events will be. A year when the annual luck reaches the Health Palace and meets malefic stars or Hua Ji is a good time to schedule a health checkup.
