Monthly Is a Trigger
A monthly cycle does not replace the natal chart. It shows which part of an existing pattern is easier to notice now.
The Three Layers
Natal structure gives the baseline, the annual cycle gives the main topic, and the month gives the near-term entry point.
When Signals Agree
If all three layers point to one palace, an issue may feel louder. If they point in different directions, keep the conclusion conditional.
Example
A professional Wealth Palace, an annual Career Hua Ke, and a monthly Outside Palace can describe a platform, exam, or client event rather than a random windfall.
A Practical Reading Order
Start with the concrete question, identify the main palace, add the opposite and the three supporting palaces, and then check the major and annual timing. End with an observable next step instead of a fixed prediction.
