Zendaya The Challenger

Zendaya is a versatile American actress, singer, and producer who began her career as a child model and backup dancer. Born and raised in Oakland, California, she demonstrated a passion for the performing arts from an early age. She first gained recognition for her role as Rocky Blue in the Disney Channel sitcom “Shake It Up” (2010–2013) and later as the lead in “K.C. Undercover” (2015–2018). In 2017, Zendaya made her big screen debut in “Spider-Man: Homecoming” and starred alongside Hugh Jackman in “The Greatest Showman” the same year. She continued her role in the Spider-Man sequels “Far from Home” (2019) and “No Way Home” (2021).

In 2020, Zendaya made history by becoming the youngest recipient of the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her portrayal of Rue Bennett, a struggling teenager battling addiction, in HBO’s “Euphoria”.

Zendaya’s Master Element is Yin Metal. Born in autumn when Metal is strong, her Master Element reflects a robust and resilient character. Yin Metal individuals are known for their sensitivity, intuition, and artistic talents. They often exude a refined and elegant presence and have a keen appreciation for the finer things in life. Such individuals enjoy attention and praise, valuing their image and reputation highly.

Her Yin Metal sits on the Ox, representing her intellect. This placement makes her resourceful, observant, and methodical, with an empathetic and nurturing nature. Additionally, two Yang Fire elements in her heavenly stems symbolize her Power Component, attracting fame and influence. The Fire element also brings discipline, a need for order, and personal integrity to her character. The Yang Fire Monkey in her career pillar highlights her charisma, passion, and creativity. However, the intensity of the Yang Fire at the top of her chart that draws attention can sometimes lead to overexposure and potential burnout.

Zendaya can be competitive and determined when she sets her mind to something. She enjoys being involved in numerous activities, has a thirst for learning, and picks up new skills quickly. Furthermore, she possesses strong leadership qualities and is highly influential.

Zendaya’s Metal Element is exceptionally strong, and it is further reinforced by a solid Water Element (Monkey+Rat combination), which helps to keep her Fire Element in balance. This combination means that she possesses a commanding presence and can be quite intimidating, demonstrating significant authority both in her professional life and personal relationships. This dynamic is vividly portrayed in her latest movie, “Challengers,” where she exerts dominance over two men simultaneously. This powerful portrayal underscores the strength and influence reflected in her BaZi chart.

Zendaya also has the Intelligence Star in her year pillar, indicating high intellect and exceptional cleverness. People with this star often have many skills, which makes it easier for them to achieve fame and success. They tend to maintain a good reputation and can gain recognition through their efforts.

From 2004 to 2024, Zendaya benefited from the support of her Wealth element (Wood). Additionally, from 2014 to 2024, she was in her Nobleman Luck and Peach Blossom cycle. It was during this period, in 2017, that she found love with Tom Holland, her co-star in “Spider-Man: Homecoming”.
