Getting to Know the 18 Auxiliary Stars

Auxiliary stars do not define temperament the way main stars do, but they decide where a main star sends its force and how smoothly it gets there. The same Zi Wei, with Zuo Fu and You Bi alongside it or standing alone, describes two different lives.

Some of these eighteen bring support, others create resistance. Resistance is not the same as misfortune. It is usually what forces a person to build real capability. Each one is described below.

Wen Chang Star Wen Chang Star Clear reasoning and a respect for structure. Capability built through writing and logic. Read this star Wen Qu Star Wen Qu Star Sensitive and quick to inspiration. Talent that runs through feeling and expression. Read this star Zuo Fu Star Zuo Fu Star What gets taken on gets finished. Reliability accumulates one delivery at a time, and reliable people gather around it. Read this star You Bi Star You Bi Star Connects people and efforts through gentleness. The help arrives without announcing itself. Read this star Tian Kui Star Tian Kui Star The visible benefactor. Work becomes legible to the people above, and visibility brings scrutiny with it. Read this star Tian Yue Star Tian Yue Star The quiet benefactor. Unshowy, working through behind-the-scenes support that tends to clear the path where it matters.

Opportunity comes out of staying in motion. Read this star

An auxiliary star has to be read inside the whole chart. Which palace it lands in, and which main star it shares that palace with, changes what it is saying entirely.
