Five element bureau
Also called: wu xing ju, 五行局
五行局 (Wǔ Xíng Jú), the elemental 'bureau' of a Purple-Star chart: Water 2, Wood 3, Metal 4, Earth 5, or Fire 6, taken from the Life palace's sound-element. Its number is also the age at which the first ten-year luck cycle (大限) opens, and part of what decides where 紫微 and the major stars are placed.
