1. The Philosophy of Rectification
In Liuren Fajiao, extreme or destructive weather is often viewed as a manifestation of Environmental Sha —a disruption in the local Yin-Yang balance. Weather Rectification is the specialized discipline of using the Altar's supreme mandate to "Smooth the Qi" of a location, mitigating the spiritual causes of storms, droughts, or floods to protect the community.

2. Functional Ritual Dynamics
Balancing the environment involves the application of the Altar's "Superior Frequency" to the local elements:
| Element Condition | Metaphysical Action | Ritual Objective |
|---|
| Excessive Heat / Drought | Invoking the Snow Mountain Fa Water pulse. | Cooling the land and inviting restorative moisture. |
| Extreme Wind / Storms | Applying the Mountain Weight (Section 66). | Anchoring the local Qi to prevent destructive turbulence. |
| Excessive Rain / Flood | Deploying the Fire Thunder command. | Drying the stagnant Yin-Qi and restoring the Yang balance. |

3. The Ethics of Intervention
Weather magic is a high-visibility operation that requires the direct authorization of the Liuren Xianshi :
- Lineage Mandate: The practitioner does not "Control" the weather, but petitions the celestial office to rectify a local imbalance.
- Community Safety: The primary goal is always the preservation of life and the protection of common resources.
- Sincerity: If the practitioner acts out of arrogance or for a public "Show" of power, the Altar will withdraw the authorization, and the practitioner may suffer from the very weather they sought to change.

4. Conclusion: The Harmonious Agent
By mastering weather rectification, the Wuleijiao master acts as a Harmonious Agent for the lineage. You use the supreme command not to dominate nature, but to restore the natural order so that all beings can thrive. This work is the ultimate demonstration of the Altar's compassion for the Liu Min (Vagabond) class.
