Purple Star Astrology AI — learn the chart, then ask the guide
Zi Wei Dou Shu (紫微斗數), also known as Purple Star Astrology, is a traditional Chinese astrological system dating back over a thousand years. It uses your birth year, month, day, and hour to create a personalized chart with twelve palaces and over a hundred stars. Purple Star Astrology AI pairs a free online chart with a voice AI guide so you can explore in English.
The Twelve Palaces
Your chart is divided into twelve palaces (宮), each representing a different area of life: Life (命宮), Siblings, Spouse, Children, Wealth, Health, Travel, Servants, Career, Property, Fortune, and Parents. The stars in each palace influence that aspect of your life.
Major Stars
The fourteen major stars (主星) — including Zi Wei (紫微), Tian Ji (天機), and Tai Yang (太陽) — are the most influential. Their positions and interactions determine your personality, fortune, and life path.
