I was just laid off — what should I do next?

Job loss is a shock that often precedes a significant life transition. Ba Zi examines whether this aligns with a natural ending in your Luck Pillar — some periods are designed to clear the old to make way for the new. Zi Wei Dou Shu looks at whether 破軍 (Breaker Star) is active in your Career Palace, which often coincides with sudden endings followed by new beginnings. Western Astrology checks Uranus transits (sudden disruption) and Pluto transits (transformation) to your 10th house. Qimen Dunjia can identify the best direction and timing for your job search to maximise success.
