Flying Lu and Flying Ji from a Palace Stem

Flying Lu is where I give, flying Ji is where my heart hangs; the two ends together are a matter coming and going.

What This Question Is Really Asking

Some see only flying Lu and invest without the Ji result; others see only Ji and are frightened; read both for the full picture.

The Underlying Logic

Palace stem flying Lu: active investment, connection and gain direction.

Flying Ji: attachment, debt and result direction.

Lu is cause, Ji result.

Landing palace stars set the concrete form.

A Step-by-Step Way to Read It

1. First set Tai Ji and choose the palace
2. Find that palace stem
3. Read flying Lu landing for investment direction
4. Read flying Ji landing for result direction
5. Use Lu-turns-to-Ji one more step
6. Combine landing star nature for concrete direction

Three Common Mistakes

Mistake 1: Seeing only flying Lu without Ji

Mistake 2: Seeing only Ji without Lu

Mistake 3: Not setting Tai Ji, direction lost

Back to Your Own Chart

Flying Lu and Ji read the investment and result ends. Read together and trace Lu-turns-to-Ji, and you know why you give and what finally lands.

Reading Order

1. Cast the natal chart first and locate the palaces and major stars tied to flying Lu and flying Ji before judging anything
2. Open the triple-direction of those palaces and count the auspicious, malefic and assistant stars separately
3. Check where the natal Four Transformations land to set the chart's baseline tone
4. Read the decade-limit transformations to see whether the flying Lu and flying Ji line is activated in this stage
5. Then read the annual transformations and the year's palace to pin down this year's trigger and timing
6. Layer natal, decade and year before concluding, then decide how to act rather than labeling good or bad
