Zi Wei Dou Shu: The Most Advanced Form Of Chinese Astrology
Zi Wei Dou Shu紫微斗数 | 帝王学与三大神数之首
Zi Wei Dou Shu is known as “The Study for Kings”.
It forecasts your life in a level of detail no other methods can.
Zi Wei Dou Shu’s Precision & Prowess
What Is
Zi Wei Dou Shu?
Zi Wei Dou Shu is a much more complex method of forecasting involving a vast array of stars. Each name you see represents a star from asterisms we can see in the sky. The main stars used are from the Big Dipper and Sagittarius constellation.
Zi Wei Dou Shu is the culmination of thousands of years of observations of the cosmos and the astronomical prowess of the ancient Chinese, combining Yin Yang, 5 Elements, and the 8 Trigrams into a single system. It has also been argued that Zi Wei Dou Shu was influenced by other civilizations, namely Jyotish astrology.
Like other methods, it forecasts one’s life, but can go a step further and to reveal the root cause, areas it will impact, and external factors influencing a particular aspect of life.
Zi Wei Dou Shu has 12 Sectors/Houses, each representing an area of your life. Each sector can represent a multitude of things and not just what its name suggests:
- Life Sector (命宫)
- Siblings Sector (兄弟宫)
- Spouse Sector (夫妻宫)
- Children’s Sector (子女宫)
- Wealth Sector (财帛宫)
- Health Sector (疾厄宫)
- Travel Sector (迁移宫)
- Friends Sector (交友宫)
- Career Sector (事业宫)
- House & Assets Sector (田宅宫)
- Karmic Sector (福德宫)
- Parent’s Sector (父母宫)
An in-depth reading involves looking at 3 layers of one’s chart chart: 1) Natal Chart 2) 10-Year Phase Chart 3) Annual Chart.
By looking at where the stars land, the interactions between the sectors, and the three layers, a practitioner can accurately forecast what life has in store for you.
A Zi Wei Dou Shu reading is included in a consultation package and all three methods I know will be applied.
Understanding The Differences
Zi Wei Dou Shu
(紫微斗数) vs BaZi (八字)
Although Zi Wei Dou Shu and BaZi are two inherently different systems of forecasting one’s life, the stories they paint about your life will be congruent. Any form of astrology is the study of nature’s laws, and these laws are independent of human bias and perception.
Zi Wei Dou Shu is a form of Chinese horoscopy which uses the “Big Dipper”(Ursa Major) constellation and the “Milk Dipper” from the Sagittarius constellation as reference points. BaZi, while still deeply rooted in astronomy, focuses on the study of ‘qi‘ (气), expressed through Yin Yang & The 5 Elements.
Both astrological techniques have their pros and cons:
- Zi Wei Dou Shu allows one to go into much more detail, but with more intricacies comes a more cumbersome process of analyzing the chart.
- BaZi may lose out on some details that Zi Wei Dou Shu can catch, but the signs are much clearer to identify.
Regardless of the method used, both Zi Wei Dou Shu and BaZi can give you valuable insights into your path ahead.
Both techniques will be applied during the consultation, so you won’t be losing out on anything.
Really. Get To know Me.
What Makes Me Different
Hard as it is to believe, I am a self-taught practitioner and BaZi consultant. Life naturally pushed me towards this field.
I studied straight from the source material from feudal China, such as 《渊海子平》，《子平真诠》，《穷通宝鉴》，《滴天髓》and 《三命通会》。 My analyses of BaZi charts are deeply rooted in Chinese metaphysics theory instead of unreliable new-age interpretations.
I’ve clocked more than 4,000 professional readings which all personalized, unique, and with a 7-day Q&A that goes deep into the specifics. My studies of the Chinese classical texts and the sheer number of consultations clocked makes the depth of my experience and knowledge is unparalleled in this field.
If you have done a BaZi consultation with anyone else, I hope you’ll get a much better experience with me and walk away feeling you’ll never need another practitioner again.
What’s most important is that I come from a place of respect and appreciation for what our ancestors developed. So I hope to uphold the integrity and standards of this field. Rest assured that I will put a lot of care into the consultation and getting your chart right because if I don’t, people will get harmed – and I would not want that to happen.

During The Consultation
Different methods will be combined
As Zi Wei Dou Shu is extremely complex, it will act as a supplement to your BaZi reading. I will still bring in some Zi Wei Dou Shu concepts and technicals to assure you how I arrived at a conclusion.

Quick Snippets Of Information
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you combine different methods?
Combining methods gives you a better consultation. It gives you a more holistic understanding of whatever you’re asking and helps you appreciate what our ancestors came up with. It also makes me more efficient and helps to make sure my analysis is on the right track as all methods should pain the same picture.
Why will the report be from a BaZi angle and not Zi Wei Dou Shu?
Zi Wei Dou Shu is a lot more complex and it will be much harder to break it down in layman terms such that you can understand it. As such, it will be a supplement, which means I’ll still touch on some technicals so that you’ll understand how I arrived at my conclusions. Just focus on your questions and leave the rest to me.
What does your consultation cover?
It depends on your questions. Just have a think about what you wish to ask and indicate that in the request form. You’ll have the Q&A to clarify anything you need to.
What do your reports feel so technical?
I want the client to have some form of understanding of their own chart, and adding a bit of the technicals gives them the assurance that I am not saying things flippantly.
How does your Q&A segment work?
The Q&A used to be conducted complimentarily and in the form of goodwill, but it is now a paid segment. You can opt-in for it for an additional $200.
This segment comes after you receive the initial report, where you can clarify anything you wish, and we can zoom into more details of your situation if necessary.
The Q&A will last seven working days. For simplicity, expect a maximum of seven formal email replies from me, assuming one email exchange between us daily. I usually need 2 to 3 working days or 4 to 6 working days during a peak period, as I’ll be busy clearing my queue and processing your questions so that I can give thoughtful replies.
How should I ask my questions?
Please ask no more than 8 questions when you first fill-up the form. There is no standard template on how to ask them. Just take the process seriously and have some focus areas because your initial report will be based on these questions.
Your Q&A will also revolve around these questions that you put in the form, so please don’t suddenly ask about your grandparents during the Q&A when you know it’s not a pressing concern in your life right now.
You also have a part to play in how much you get from the consultation. The better your questions, the better I can leverage what I know and give you the insights you need.
Why are your fees so expensive?
There is no objective way of answering this. What may be expensive to you is actually reasonable to others, especially to those who have come for a consultation with me and recognized the insights and value I can bring.
I would actually throw the question back at you and make you ask yourself what price would you put on making good decisions that can potentially change the outcome of your life or help you avert calamitous times. To me, that’s worth way more than a few hundred dollars and sometimes even priceless.
My fees are factored by a combination of reasons, such as how much I value my time, where I see myself stand within the industry, and the scarcity of my time as my reach grows.
If I may be blunt, there are tons of charlatans out there charging way higher than I am and I don’t see why I should charge lower than them.
My pricing is also a natural filter for the quality of clients I wish to take on.
