Hearing Zi Wei in Life, many think "lucky." Zi Wei is the chief of the fourteen main stars, the emperor star. People with it in Life naturally have presence — opinionated, big-picture, proud, competitive. But have you noticed many Zi Wei in Life people don't live easily? They want to manage everything and do it well, but their people can't always keep up. The key with Zi Wei in Life isn't "how strong" but "does anyone help."
Zi Wei is yin earth, the chief of the Northern Dipper, transforming to dignity. People with it in Life have an innate sense that "I should be the core." Used well this is leadership; used poorly it's control. Zi Wei fears isolation most — without Zuo Fu, You Bi, Kui, Yue, it's an emperor without ministers, high up but doing everything alone. So reading Zi Wei in Life, first look not at Zi Wei itself but whether it has a "team."
