Zi Wei Dou Shu

Zi Wei Dou Shu, Purple Star Astrology, is a Chinese natal chart system developed during the Song dynasty. It positions 14 major stars — centered on the Purple Star, Zi Wei — across 12 life palaces covering character, wealth, relationships, career, health, and travel. The chart is calculated from birth year, month, day, and hour, making accurate birth time essential. Among Chinese divination systems, Zi Wei produces the most structurally detailed natal reading — closer in form to Western natal astrology than to BaZi, though the underlying logic is entirely different.
