Zi Wei Major Limits and Annual Cycles
In Zi Wei, major limits set a ten-year chapter; annual cycles press the button for one year—together they light up real themes.
Find your current major-limit palace and its stars, then layer annual stars entering palaces to see the decade's tone and this year's focus.
Why major limits move every ten years
A major limit shifts the life map to a new palace theme for a decade—career, love, wealth, or home may take center stage.
The natal chart stays; your attention moves.
How annual cycles work
Annual stars enter palaces for the year, especially the major-limit palace and key natal sectors.
Benefic stars may open doors; harsh stars or Ji may ask for adjustment and planning.
Linking natal, major, and annual
Natal is the map, major limit the chapter, annual cycle the keypress.
Read all three to know whether to push or steady—never let one hard year erase the long map.
