XinggeThe Chancellor you know
You probably know someone with this star.
Tian Xiang transforms into the Seal, the official seal of old China: once stamped, it is an endorsement. A friend with a strong Tian Xiang is the group's mediator. When two sides argue, they listen to each separately, then find a version everyone can accept.
Four spectrums
The spectrums are our modern way of drawing the stars. The method is public; it isn't from the classical texts.
What the classics say
The minister star: fair, cooperative and image-conscious, shaped by the stars on either side.
Classical keywords: Transforms into the Seal; the seal star. Coordination, fairness and service, shaped by its surroundings. How it fares depends on the palaces on either side.
In the twelve palaces
The same Tian Xiang says different things in different palaces.
Life Palace
You are fair, cooperative and care about appearances, a natural coordinator. You often hold things together for others and end up worn out.
Spouse Palace
In love you protect your partner's dignity, and you tend to meet people who are reasonable and care about appearances. Beyond looking good together, say what you really feel.
Wealth Palace
Your money comes steadily, through expertise and a good reputation. You don't chase sudden riches, and you rarely take big losses.
Career Palace
You suit supporting roles such as staff, administration, legal or HR work; you make a great second in command. Make sure your contributions are seen too.

Siblings Palace
You are the peacemaker among your peers, and relationships are steady and supportive. Remember to say where you really stand.
Children Palace
You are fair to your children and your team, and the people you train have good discipline. Leave them room to try things themselves.
Health Palace
You tend to take on other people's problems, and fatigue builds up quietly. When you are tired, put it down; you don't have to get everything right.
Travel Palace
Out in the world you are well liked and have helpers, and you suit connecting people and acting as a bridge. Opportunities often come back through the connections you make.
Friends Palace
Your friends tend to be decent people, and you are happy to help them. While you give, keep some strength for yourself.
Property Palace
Your home is neat and presentable, and you have standards for how you live. Living comfortably matters more than looking perfect.
Fortune Palace
You are perceptive and care about the quality of daily life, and you are only comfortable when others are. Put yourself at ease first so your consideration can last.
Parents Palace
You get along smoothly with your elders, and your upbringing taught you a sense of proportion. Beyond knowing your place, keep your own voice too.
These are readings for Tian Xiang alone in a palace. With other stars beside it, the reading changes.
