Wealth Palace
財帛 · cái bó
Overview
The Wealth Palace (財帛宮) describes earning capacity, spending patterns, and the person's relationship with money. This palace is about cash movement — how money comes in and how it goes out. It does not alone determine total net worth; that requires reading the Wealth Palace alongside Property (accumulated assets) and Career (income source). A person with the Military Star here approaches money very differently from someone with the Harmony Star, even if both end up with similar account balances.
What This Palace Governs
Income, spending habits, financial management style, relationship with money, and material earning capacity.
