Thai guardian deities of your fate
Thai astrology gives every planet a “power number” (the Sun 6, the Moon 15, Mars 8, Mercury 17, Jupiter 19, Venus 21, Saturn 10, Rahu 12, Ketu 9). This old method builds seven columns from the weekday, the Thai lunar month and the year animal of your birth; each column adds up to a number that names a guardian deity of your fate. Some are helpful, some are ones to be careful of.
