The Ri Yue Zhao Bi (Sun and Moon Illuminating the Wall – 日月照壁) constellation is established when Po Jun resides alone in the Dragon or Dog palace, with Zi Wei and Tian Xiang in the opposite palace. Under this arrangement, the Property palace must fall in the Sheep/Goat or Ox palace, where Tai Yang and Tai Yin reside together, thereby forming the basic conditions of this formation.
The noble form of this formation requires that the opposite and triangle palaces be free from malefic stars and adverse transformations. In addition, the Destiny palace should either contain or be supported by auspicious stars.
Strengths
Although this formation is centered on the Property palace, its true quality is still determined by the opposite and triangle palaces of the Destiny palace. These should be free from malefic influences while receiving the support of auspicious stars such as Zuo Fu, You Bi, Tian Kui, and Tian Yue.
The most favorable charts belong to those born in a Jia year, where Po Jun transforms into Hua Quan in the Destiny palace, Lian Zhen transforms into Hua Lu in the Spouse palace and illuminates the Career palace, Lu Cun lies along the Spouse-Career axis, creating either the Double Prosperity Meeting or Double Prosperity Convergence Formation, while Wu Qu transforms into Hua Ke in the Mental palace and illuminates the Wealth palace, producing a continuous flow of income.
This formation derives its name from Tai Yang and Tai Yin residing together in the Property palace. Tai Yang symbolizes nobility, while Tai Yin symbolizes wealth. For this reason, classical masters believed that those with this formation would either be born into a distinguished or affluent family, enjoying a high likelihood of inheriting ancestral property or acquiring substantial real estate through their own efforts.
With Po Jun in the Destiny palace and Zi Wei together with Tian Xiang in the opposite palace, the native often possesses the character described by the saying, “A general in the field need not obey every imperial command.” Such individuals are decisive, innovative, and resilient in the face of adversity.
When the Property palace is occupied by Tai Yang and Tai Yin, both stars are capable of transforming into Hua Lu. However, since the Ox and Goat palaces cannot contain Lu Cun, this formation is more accurately interpreted as acquiring real estate primarily through one’s own ability rather than through inherited fortune.
Weaknesses
Malefic stars or adverse transformations within the Property palace generally have only a limited effect. They merely indicate that acquiring property requires greater effort and perseverance.
The greatest concern is the presence of Di Kong or Di Jie, which may cause the native to obtain property only to lose it later, resulting in wasted effort.
For male charts, it is more favorable for the Destiny palace to be located in the Dragon palace. In this case, Tai Yang occupies a prosperous position while Tai Yin is in a weakened position within the Property palace.
For female charts, it is more favorable for the Destiny palace to be located in the Dog palace. Here, Tai Yang is in a weakened position while Tai Yin occupies a prosperous position within the Property palace.
