A practitioner reference page from Chinese metaphysics consultant Sean Chan cataloguing each of the fourteen major stars of Zi Wei Dou Shu with its Chinese name, English gloss, Five Phase element, yin or yang polarity and traditional title. Self-taught rather than lineage-trained, and a commercial consulting site rather than an academic publication, but its structural attributions match the atlas's own existing description for these fourteen stars, and were cross-checked here against two further independent practitioner references before use, with the small number of points where those references disagree marked debated rather than smoothed over.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
A self-taught practitioner's own reference page rather than an academic or peer reviewed work: no formal lineage is claimed, and media mentions are shown but no scholarly credentials. Placed at the tier already used for comparable practitioner reference material on the atlas. Its specific element, polarity and domain attributions were cross-checked against two further independent practitioner sources rather than accepted on their own, and marked debated wherever those checks disagreed. NotesConsulted 2026-08-14 for the Five Phase element, yin-yang polarity and traditional domain of each of the fourteen major stars of Zi Wei Dou Shu. No publication or last-updated date is shown on the page itself, which this note records rather than leaving silent.
