How to read a Zi Wei chart: begin with the twelve palaces
A Zi Wei chart is most useful as an observation framework. The interface keeps the palace structure visible without flooding a first-time reader with terminology.
Begin at the center
Start with the core chart information and the spatial relationship among the twelve palaces.
Read each palace
Each palace shows only the necessary major stars and a concise prompt.
Open the explanation last
Expand the written basis when needed instead of carrying every technical term at once.
Bring the question into the present and create a reading you can revisit.
