Qi Men Dun Jia for 婚姻: classical favourable pattern
What 婚姻 consultations look for in a chart
Look for 六合 spirit (the harmony spirit) landing on a relevant palace — classically the strongest indicator of relational success. Pair with 休門 for peaceful introductions, 生門 for the start of formal commitment, or 杜門 for private courtship. Sun Wonder 乙 supports romantic introductions; Star Wonder 丁 supports intellectually-aligned partnerships. 太陰 spirit indicates supportive female allies in the matter.
Avoid marriage formalisation if 死門 / 驚門 land on the relevant palace, or if 玄武 / 白虎 spirits dominate. 天柱 star warns of dispute / division; 七赤 / 二黑 transit pattern overlays warn of romantic-rupture or illness register affecting the partnership.
Why generic Marriage & Relationships guidance fails
The favourable components above describe the pattern to look for in a QMDJ chart, but a real consultation reads the actual chart cast for your specific time-and-place question. The same favourable pattern can land in a chart configuration that is highly favourable for one consultant and inactive for another — depending on which palaces are activated for the question, what dun period is operating, and the consultant's own chart context. Master Sean Chan’s QMDJ forecasting consultation casts the chart for your specific question and reads it chart-aware rather than from a generic pattern lookup.
Practical priorities
Identify the favourable pattern for 婚姻 — the gates, stars, spirits, and stems listed above are what an experienced QMDJ practitioner looks for when consulting on this purpose.
Cast the chart for your specific question. The QMDJ chart is time-specific — the favourable pattern is only useful if it actually appears in the chart cast at the moment you consult.
Book a forecasting consultation via QMDJ forecasting service for chart-aware reading. Generic favourable-pattern reference is no substitute for an actual chart consultation.

Can I use the QMDJ calculator to read this myself?
The free QMDJ calculator plots the current chart for any time of day. You can use it for self-study and to identify what the current chart pattern looks like. However, reading the chart against your specific question — knowing which palace is your consultation's relevant palace, how the dun period modulates the reading, and whether classical patterns are activating for your question — is the work of a chart-aware consultation rather than a calculator.
