FAQ
- Does Tianxiang in the Friends Palace guarantee that someone will mediate disputes?
- No. It makes principled, cooperative, or mediation-minded allies more likely, but whether anyone steps in still depends on the relationship, each person’s interests, and the strength of the placement. When conflict occurs, choose someone trusted by both sides who has no direct stake in the outcome, and give that person a clear factual account.
- Is Tianxiang or Tianfu better in the Friends Palace?
- Neither is universally better because they provide different kinds of support. Tianxiang favors fairness, coordination, and relationship repair, making it useful in disputes or stalled cooperation, while Tianfu favors stable resources, execution, and long-term continuity. The practical question is whether the situation needs a mediator or someone who can carry responsibility over time.
