# 天壽 (Tiānshòu / The Longevity)

- **中文 / Chinese:** 天壽
- **Pinyin:** Tiānshòu
- **Earthly branch 地支:** 亥 Hài
- **Six-realm nature 六道根性:** [天道 Heaven Realm](../realms/heaven.md)
- **Keywords:** longevity, steadiness, patience, endurance

The star of longevity. Steady, calm and enduring, with an unhurried nature and good staying power; favours stability, patience and a long, settled life.

**General tendency:** brings longevity and steadiness — calm, enduring and patient.

## On each pillar 四柱

The same palm star reads differently depending on which pillar it lands on — the Year pillar speaks of the foundation one is born with, the Hour pillar of children and the years at the far end of life.

### 年柱 Year Pillar — foundation, ancestry & innate nature

Longevity at the root: steady, warm and patient, unhurried by temperament, with health and fortune that run long. Steadiness wins; chasing quick gains wastes the gift.

年柱坐天壽，根基穩重溫厚，個性沉穩有耐性、不急不躁，身體與運勢多綿長。宜以穩健踏實取勝，急功近利反而失其所長。

### 月柱 Month Pillar — parents, youth & early career

Long-lived parents or a household of solid habits; an even youth that develops slowly but soundly. Keep the pace and do not envy the early bloomers — this pillar wins late.

月柱坐天壽，父母高壽或家風敦厚，少年時期成長平順、發展不快但扎實。宜守其穩、不必羨慕早發，這一柱贏在後段。

### 日柱 Day Pillar — the self, marriage & mid-life

A calm, patient self and a dependable spouse; a marriage that runs long and quiet. Take mid-life step by step — haste damages precisely what this chart is good at.

日柱坐天壽，自身沉穩有耐性，配偶溫厚可靠，婚姻細水長流。中年宜穩紮穩打，急功近利反而傷了本命的長處。

### 時柱 Hour Pillar — children, old age & later fortune

Steady, dutiful children and a long, healthy old age with little illness. Keep regular hours — at this end of life the fortune is in the body, not the balance sheet.

時柱坐天壽，子女敦厚孝順，晚年安康綿長、少病少災。宜維持規律作息，老來福在身體而不在財。
