Direct Officer (正官) meaning

What is Direct Officer?

Direct Officer (正官) is the character with the opposite polarity among the element that controls you. Jeong (正) means upright and gwan (官) means official rank, so it is 'the upright office.' It stands for rules, honor, your job, and social standing. As a person, it points to the husband in a woman's chart and a daughter in a man's chart. It is an energy that presses on you just enough to set you upright, so it is seen as the most proper of the Ten Gods.

Personality and traits

People with a clear Direct Officer are courteous and responsible. You follow the rules and take promises seriously, so your credit is good. You tend to be recognized in an organization and promoted quickly. On the other hand, you care about appearances, so you lack flexibility and are slow to try new things.
