Guasu (寡宿)​

Function​

Guasu (寡宿) represents loneliness and lack of affection. Those with this star in their destiny often have solitary personalities, are not good at socializing, and have poor romantic fortunes, with marriage coming later in life. Men with Guasu (寡宿) often experience many emotional ups and downs; women may face a life of solitude and difficult marital experiences. As the saying goes: "Men fear Guchen (孤辰), women fear Guasu (寡宿)!" People with Guasu (寡宿) in their destiny often lead independent lives and have resilient personalities but lack close family relationships. When coexisting with Guchen (孤辰), the individual is prone to wandering; when combined with Huagai (华盖), they may possess unique artistic talents or the qualities of a practitioner.

  • Guasu (寡宿) and Guchen (孤辰): Guasu (寡宿) is a star of solitude in destiny, often appearing with Guchen (孤辰). The Guasu (寡宿) star symbolizes loneliness and a lack of deep affection with close relatives. Having Guasu (寡宿) in one's destiny often means a life of solitude, poor family relationships, and a frequent feeling of emotional absence. Its interaction with Guchen (孤辰) deepens this sense of loneliness.
  • Guasu (寡宿) with Huagai (华盖) and Kongwang (空亡): When Guasu (寡宿) appears with Huagai (华盖), the individual often has special artistic talents or philosophical thinking. Many ancient artists, philosophers, and practitioners often had Guasu (寡宿) and Guchen (孤辰) stars in their destiny. Although their interpersonal relationships were isolated, they possessed extraordinary talents. The combination of Guasu (寡宿) with Kongwang (空亡) may lead to a lack of family support from a young age and a more challenging life.
  • Guasu (寡宿) with Malefic Stars: If a person with Guasu (寡宿) also encounters malefic stars or evil influences, it often intensifies the individual's sense of loneliness and emotional distress, potentially leading to broken relationships and family discord.
  • Guasu (寡宿) and Auspicious Stars: If there are auspicious stars or benefactors in the destiny, the negative impact of Guasu (寡宿) can be alleviated, reducing the individual's loneliness and emotional troubles to some extent. Especially if the individual has Huagai (华盖), Tianyi Guiren (天乙贵人), or other auspicious stars, they can achieve success in their career, even if their interpersonal relationships are distant, they can still make breakthroughs in their career.
