# 地獄道 (Hell Realm)

- **中文 / Chinese:** 地獄道
- **Palm stars 對應掌中星:** 天厄

A past life in the hell realm, having passed through suffering — early hardship and a tough start, but endurance turns it to later strength.

In the Palm Sutra the **Year pillar** star points to the realm a person is said to have come from, colouring their innate nature (根性). The stars assigned to this realm are: [天厄](../stars/e.md). Cast a reading at <https://localpapa.com/tools/yizhang.html>.
