Choose your birth date and city first

Use the clock time at your birthplace. If you know the minute, choose the window containing it. For an estimate, make sure your remembered range stays within one option.

Unsure which window to choose?

We use your birth date and city to correct to true solar time before assigning the Ziwei birth period. You need to place your birth within one window; knowing only a traditional period name may not be enough. Adjacent options can correspond to the same chart.

What is Purple Star Astrology?

Zi Wei Dou Shu — Purple Star Astrology — is a Chinese astrological system that turns your birth moment into a chart of twelve palaces: a celestial map of your life. Instead of five elements, it places over a hundred symbolic stars into twelve life areas — self, wealth, career, marriage, health and more. It's a framework for self-understanding and life planning, not fortune-telling.

Four Key Palaces

The chart has twelve palaces; these four carry the questions people ask most:

SELF

Life Palace

Your core personality and the overall tone of the chart — the anchor of the whole reading.

WEALTH

Wealth Palace

How you earn, spend and relate to money — your natural financial style.

CAREER

Career Palace

Your professional path: what kind of work suits you and how you build a name.

LOVE

Spouse Palace

Your relationship pattern — the partner you attract and the way you love.

The Major Stars

Every chart is built from symbolic stars. Five of the most influential:

Emperor

Leadership · dignity

Sun

Visibility · giving

Moon

Sensitivity · nurture

General

Finance · resolve

Advisor

Insight · strategy

Your chart is calculated from your exact birth time and place, then written up palace by palace in plain language. Enter your details above and see yours.
