Companion Star (比劫 / 比肩劫财)

Companion Star is an encyclopedia term in Chinese astrology and Bazi/Zi Wei reading. It names a specific layer of the system; read it by checking the relevant pillar, branch, star, palace, timing layer, and whole-chart context, then compare it with Ten Gods, Day Master, Element Balance, Bazi / Four Pillars so the entry explains what the term means before it becomes advice.

Companion Star belongs to the vocabulary of Chinese astrology and Bazi/Zi Wei reading. A source-aware note should first define the system layer, then show which evidence is checked (the relevant pillar, branch, star, palace, timing layer, and whole-chart context) and only after that describe practical use or cautions.

To understand Companion Star, identify its system layer and compare Ten Gods, Day Master, Element Balance, Bazi / Four Pillars. The practical question is not whether the word appears, but what the relevant pillar, branch, star, palace, timing layer, and whole-chart context says in this case and how much weight that evidence deserves.

In a FateFolio Bazi report, Companion Star should be used as an explanatory anchor: define the term, show the observed evidence from the relevant pillar, branch, star, palace, timing layer, and whole-chart context, and point to the next related section rather than turning the term into a one-line verdict.

These references support the historical or structural background used to explain Companion Star in Chinese astrology and Bazi/Zi Wei reading. They are context anchors, not a substitute for checking the term within its own layer.
