Do Not Read Hua Lu Alone
Monthly Si Hua is more precise when you locate each transformation first and then ask who carries the resource, duty, visibility, or friction.
Four Different Jobs
Hua Lu opens resources, Hua Quan raises responsibility, Hua Ke increases proof and visibility, and Hua Ji concentrates a problem.
Palace Changes the Meaning
In Life it affects choice, in Wealth cash flow, in Career duties, and in Outside markets or exposure.
Examples
Wealth Hua Lu with Career Hua Quan can mean more orders and heavier delivery. Outside Hua Ke with Fu De Hua Ji can mean praise outside and worry inside.
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.
