Tai Yang in Spouse usually means a "little sun" partner — warm, cheerful, righteous; never a dull moment with them. But the sun can also "blind": they may be too dominant, too controlling, too face-conscious, leaving you feeling scorched. The key to Tai Yang in Spouse relationships is "distance" — too close and you get burned, too far and you can't feel the warmth.
Spouse palace shows partner traits and relationship patterns. Tai Yang here means a responsible, helpful partner with possible social standing. But Tai Yang's "universal love" may make you feel "you're good to everyone, so what am I?" Temple/prosperous Tai Yang means an accomplished, family-oriented partner; fallen may mean a busy, absent partner or all talk no action.
