Major limit
Also called: da xian, decade luck, 大限
大限 (Dà Xiàn), Purple Star's ten-year luck era. Life moves through the twelve palaces one decade at a time (the first set by your Five-Element Bureau number), so each palace 'rules' a ten-year age range; the stars sitting there colour that whole decade. Which way round the palaces the decades travel, forward or backward, is set by the birth year's stem (yin or yang) together with the person's sex.
