Pattern Structure (格局)

Pattern Structure 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 Bazi / Four Pillars, Ten Gods, Month Commander, Chart Strength so the entry explains what the term means before it becomes advice.

Pattern Structure 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 Pattern Structure, identify its system layer and compare Bazi / Four Pillars, Ten Gods, Month Commander, Chart Strength. 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, Pattern Structure 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 Pattern Structure in Chinese astrology and Bazi/Zi Wei reading. They are context anchors, not a substitute for checking the term within its own layer.
