Pitou Xing (披头星)
Function
Pitou Xing (披头星) is listed alongside Pima Xing (披麻星) as an inauspicious star, indicating that the life master is prone to encountering funerals, injuries, illnesses, and family discord during a specific year or major fortune period. The ancients used the phrase "Pima and Pitou appear repeatedly, surely one will mourn the parents that year" to describe its ominous nature, suggesting that when Pitou Xing enters one's life, elders or relatives in the family are likely to encounter misfortune, potentially leading to legal disputes. The life master may also experience turbulence in emotions and marriage, resulting in an overall unstable fortune.
