People with Wu Qu and Tan Lang in the Health Palace usually have decent energy and endurance, but tend to deplete the body through entertaining, late nights and desire; rather than waiting for trouble, moderation and checkups are better done early.
What This Question Is Really Asking
The question is what to watch with Wu Qu and Tan Lang in the Health Palace. Understand it reads health tendencies, then see the metal and wood natures, practice moderation early, and do not treat the stars as a medical diagnosis.
The Underlying Logic
Wu Qu in the Health Palace, metal governs breathing, the nose, teeth, bones and metal injuries, and a firm character can endure, yet also tends to force through, bump into things and ignore small wounds.
Tan Lang there governs desire, entertaining, alcohol, the reproductive and urinary systems and the liver, with strong energy, yet also depletion from overuse, entertaining and lack of restraint.
Together they mean metal plus wood: with Lu, Quan, Ke and auspicious stars and a disciplined life recovery is strong; with malefics and Ji and unchecked Tan Lang, chronic metabolic, reproductive, urinary or breathing problems can follow.
The lesson is desire with restraint and endurance with rest: manage entertaining, late nights and desire, take regular checkups, seek prompt proper care for lasting symptoms, and treat the stars only as tendencies.
