This is a sad case of a comedian who took his life due to depression. What an irony. An actor and comedian who entertained and made the whole world laugh but was suffering deep inside. Robin Williams was born at 1.34 pm on the 21st of July in 1951. Robin rose to fame in the late seventies acting as Mork in the TV series Mork & Mindy. Thereafter, he established a successful career in both stand-up comedy and film acting.

Robin's chart is that of a weak ren water DM. He has his positive xin resource star in the year stem and this makes the officer earth stars positive too. Just like Stephen Chow, the positive resource star gave him many great ideas for his comedy work. The positive officer stars gave him the nobility. In his lifetime, Robin Williams had also done much for charity.

Robin has been going through many good LPs with the positive water, metal and earth stars protruding. The xin-mao LP which ran through the eighties and the nineties had been very favorable because it formed a positive fu-yin with the year pillar. However, it was also in this LP that he had his first divorce. In the xin-mao LP, the mao-xu transformed into fire which is his negative wealth star and handed him an expensive divorce with Valerie Velardi. He then married Marsha Garces in 1989 and divorced her in 2008. Altogether, he had two divorces because of the two xu-wei destructions in his natal chart which affect the spouse palace.

People with many earth earthly branches tend to bury all their problems within themselves. In his natal chart, you can see that three out of his four earthly branches are earth stars. Well, if you learn ZiPing bazi, you will know that Robin is presently in his ji-chou LP. In this ji-chou LP, there are two sets of xu-chou-wei bullying punishment that made him felt "trapped" and caused his depression to go out of control.

May he rest in peace.

This is the chart of one of my favorite Hong Kong actresses and I believe she is also a favorite to many people. She is Linda Chung Ka-yan who was born in Canada on the 9th of April in 1984. Linda started her acting career at the age of 20 after winning the Miss Chinese International Pageant in 2004 and very quickly shot into fame. In 2006, she won her first major award as the "most improved female actress". Linda's breakthrough role came in 2007 in the series "Heart of Greed".

Linda Chung is also a singer and her first album "Dinner for One, World for Two" was released in August 2008. This album achieved Gold Status in Hong Kong based on the number of sales.

Linda's chart is a weak gui DM. So, there are 4 hour pillars that can make this chart a favorable one. They are geng-shen, xin-you, ren-xu and gui-hai. I have chosen geng-shen as the hour pillar to make her chart more balance. With the metal resource star and earth officer star protruding in the stems, the fire wealth star is also positive. Only the wood output star is negative. 

She is now in her yi-chou LP which began in 2005. If the hour pillar is geng-shen, then this yi-chou LP is positive because the geng-yi combination transforms the yi into metal star with the support from chen month earthly branch and chou of the yi-chou LP.

Technically speaking, the earth officer star is positive when the metal resource star protrudes in the stem. However, when the earth stars are strongly rooted and sitting beside the water DM, it can also counter the DM and thus giving rise to pressure and stress. Poor Linda Chung had depression in her early acting days due to heavy workload. Her negative jia is in the stem of the year pillar which represents the "outside". So, being far away from home made things worse. The strongly rooted earth stars also represent the "boys".

If the hour pillar is geng-shen, then there is a water frame of shen-zi-chen in her natal chart. Since the water self star represents her money and fans, this water frame is definitely a favorable one although shen-zi-chen cannot transform due to lack of support.

Linda Chung's jia-zi LP will commence in 2015 and it will form a negative fu-yin with the year pillar. This fu-yin will multiply the negative output wood energy. I am hoping that the hour pillar is geng-shen because the strong metal energy will be able to control the strong wood energy more effectively. After the jia-zi LP, the next 4 LPs with water and metal stars protruding in the stems will be very favorable for her.
