How Bazi reads a marriage
A marriage asks more of two charts than a romance does, so the marriage score shifts weight toward the parts of the chart that describe home life.
- Spouse palaces (日支), 30%: life under one roof, intimacy, how home feels.
- Household (月柱): the month pillars show daily rhythm and the family each of you grew up in.
- Spouse stars (配偶星): whether each partner is the classical spouse element of the other.
- 天合地合 and 天剋地沖: when the day stems and day branches both combine, or both clash.
Day Masters weigh a little less here (20%): chemistry matters, but in a marriage how you decide together and support each other matters more.
The spouse palace and the spouse star
The earthly branch of your day pillar is your spouse palace. It describes what you need from married life. When two spouse palaces combine (支合, 半会) the home tends to feel easy; a clash (冲) between them is the classic sign of a lively, sometimes restless household.
The spouse star describes the partner you are drawn to: Wealth for a man, Officer for a woman. The calculator checks it both ways and shows how much of each element the other chart holds, so a couple without a direct hit still sees where the pull comes from.
What your spouse is like, according to your chart
Your own chart already sketches the spouse it suits. The element of your spouse star hints at their temperament (Wood growth-minded, Fire warm and expressive, Earth steady, Metal principled, Water perceptive), and the branch in your spouse palace hints at the atmosphere you want at home.
Open your own chart in the Bazi calculator to see both, then compare them with the real person here.
Making a marriage work with your chart
Use the weakest factor as your shared to-do list. A clash in the spouse palaces calls for separate corners at home and clear routines; a low element exchange calls for hobbies and friends that recharge each of you; a Day Master check (相剋) calls for taking turns to decide.
