Self-Transformation Ji Versus Natal Ji in the Friends Palace

Two Ji labels need separate sources before any partnership interpretation.

Two Ji labels in the Friends Palace do not automatically mean betrayal. A natal transformation and a self-transformation are calculated from different stems. Confirm the star, palace and source of each mark before giving it a meaning.

Check the software layer

Some chart apps color incoming, outgoing and self-transformations alike. Record the birth-year stem first. Then test whether the palace stem transforms a star already in that palace. A manager rewriting handoff documents and partners lacking shared account access have different practical problems.

Reading order

Separate the natal layer, palace-stem layer and current cycle. Use written roles and permissions to address actual cooperation friction. Terminology differs among schools, so label the method used.
