Nine Palaces Flying Star Chart 2026

Create a simple and symmetrical Chinese feng shui infographic poster in a traditional calendar style, with a warm, light beige background. The main title at the top should be in prominent dark red Chinese calligraphy, reading {argument name="headline text" default="2026 Flying Stars Chart"}, accompanied by a smaller black subtitle {argument name="subtitle text" default="(Year of the Wood Horse)"} below. Add a decorative compass to the upper left corner, labeled with the four Chinese directions: South-Up, North-Down, East-Left, West-Right. The central composition should be a 3x3 grid containing 9 square panels with delicate Chinese borders, evenly spaced and perfectly aligned. Each panel should include a large colored number, a Chinese star name, a line of text starting with either “Auspicious Star” or “Inauspicious Star,” and a symbolic illustration. Top row panels: Upper left labeled “Southeast,” a purple-bordered panel containing the number 9 and the text “Nine Purple Right Auxiliary Star,” along with “Auspicious Star: Joy, Romance, Noble Person,” accompanied by illustrations of purple balloons, gift boxes, and small fireworks; Top center labeled “South,” an orange-bordered panel containing the number 5 and the text “Five Yellow Coercion Star,” along with “Inauspicious Star: Disaster, Accidents, Illness,” accompanied by illustrations of a golden gourd and ancient coins tied with red string; Upper right labeled “Southwest,” a gold-bordered panel containing the number 7 and the text “Seven Red Killing Star,” along with “Inauspicious Star: Financial Loss, Disputes, Thieves,” accompanied by illustrations of a copper bell and a silver sword. Middle row panels: Left-aligned “East” in large vertical side text, a green-bordered panel containing the number 8 and the text “Eight White Left Auxiliary Star,” along with “Auspicious Star: Wealth, Property, Savings,” accompanied by illustrations of a bonsai money tree and gold ingots; A blue capsule label covering the upper center, labeled “Central Palace,” a blue-bordered panel containing the number 1 and the text “One White Greed Wolf Star,” along with “Auspicious Star: Popularity, Relationships, Wisdom,” accompanied by an illustration of a crystal ball on a wooden stand; Right-aligned “West” in large vertical side text, a green-bordered panel containing the number 3 and the text “Three Green Luxuriant Star,” along with “Inauspicious Star: Conflicts, Disputes, Arguments,” accompanied by illustrations of bamboo and a small stacked stone fountain. Bottom row panels: Lower left labeled “Northeast,” a green-bordered panel containing the number 4 and the text “Four Green Literary Star,” along with “Auspicious Star: Studies, Literature, Exams,” accompanied by illustrations of an open book, a calligraphy brush, and an inkstone, with a bamboo leaf background; Bottom center labeled “North,” a gold-bordered panel containing the number 6 and the text “Six White Martial Star,” along with “Auspicious Star: Power, Noble Person, Windfall,” accompanied by an illustration of a golden stone lion statue holding a ball on a pedestal; Lower right labeled “Northwest,” a gray-bordered panel containing the number 2 and the text “Two Black Giant Gate Star,” along with “Inauspicious Star: Illness, Injury, Obstruction,” accompanied by illustrations of a stone pagoda and a small incense burner. Use 6 external directional labels around the grid: “Southeast,” “South,” “Southwest” on the top row, and “Northeast,” “North,” “Northwest” on the bottom row, each label within a rounded capsule matching the panel color. Add 2 large vertical side directional labels on either side of the grid: “East” on the left and “West” on the right. Add a pill-shaped legend at the bottom center, divided into two sections: a red section displaying “Auspicious Stars: 1, 4, 6, 8, 9,” and a dark gray section displaying “Inauspicious Stars: 2, 3, 5, 7.” Add faint cloud patterns behind some objects to create a traditional atmosphere. The overall style should be a clear vector infographic with soft watercolor rendering, high readability, balanced spacing, and an elegant aesthetic of Chinese metaphysical charts.
