The Travel Palace
Governs: Going out, travel, moving and changes of environment, and the image you present to others.
How to read it: The main star shows how you come across away from home and how you are suited to grow; Lu (prosperity) brings gain on the road, Ji (affliction) setbacks and a need for care.
Alignment: Its opposite is the Life palace: the you at home and the you out in the world mirror each other. Its trines, Spouse and Fortune, mean life outside also moves your heart and mood.
Keep in mind: Reading Travel with Life helps show whether you thrive staying put or heading out.
