What it means

Tiande (天德, Heavenly Virtue) is the palace able to subdue every celestial and earthly malign force, turning ill into good. It marks a life of ease, untouched by punishment or theft; even misfortune dissolves of itself. Joined with the Three Marvels or Tianyi Nobleman it is especially auspicious, and in a noble pattern it brings examination success and the sovereign's favor. The classics hold Tiande superior to Yuede; whoever has it attains clear distinction and honor.
