## What Imperial Astrology Does

Imperial Astrology provides tools for self-understanding through the lens of
Chinese destiny analysis. Not fortune-telling. Not vague horoscopes. A
structured map of your tendencies, your timing, and the rhythms that shape your
life.

Two classical systems are offered:

1. **Zi Wei Dou Shu (ZWDS)** — A star-based system mapping 100+ stars across 12
   life palaces (Career, Wealth, Relationships, Health, etc.), with Four
   Transformations (Hua) indicating dynamic shifts in life areas.

2. **Four Pillars (BaZi)** — An element-based system using birth year, month,
   day, and hour to derive eight characters. These reveal your Day Master (core
   nature), Ten Gods (life relationships), and 10-year Luck Cycles (timing).

Both systems are calculated using precise astronomical and calendrical
algorithms, including true solar time adjustment and lunar calendar conversion.
