Khaby Lame – TikTok hero and a global phenomenon

Khaby Lame is probably the most popular Tik-Toker ever, with rapidly growing number of followers (over 150 million in May 2022).

Khaby is a mime artist, who uses body language, caricaturizing, and – simplifying to make us laugh.

He is great fan of football, Japanese comics – and his dog.

He is self-proclaimed teacher (#LearnwithKhaby), who educates us how get back to basics.

This thin and tall comedian with an appearance of a Pink Panther, might be the funniest man alive; some address him as contemporary Groucho Marx, or Charli Chaplin of TikTok and Instagram. Almost overnight, Khabani Lame became a super star, with fan base growing in a light speed!

This Senegal born Italian used to be a waiter and a factory worker until COVID break in 2020. Having a lots of free time after losing his job, he started posting on TikTok and Instagram. Khaby became successful not only because of the personal charm and utterly funny videos, but also due to a help of a great manager Reggio Alessandro, who often appears in his posts.

It took him less than two years to completely turn his status; from a former immigrant and unemployed individual, he didn’t become only a global BOSS model, but he also gained a status of international celebrity. From 2022, his charming face started to appear on numerous billboards at the streets of Tokyo, Milan, Rome, Berlin, London, and New York, next to Jenners and Kardashians.

So, who is Khaby in Ba Zi astrology?

The first step in assessing one’s personality is establishing their Self (equals to soul).

Khaby’s Self is Bing, or Yang Fire, represented by the Sun.

Bing Self generally produces open, charming, generous, and fun people.

They are also recognizable for their big smile, that warms up people’s heart, dispelling the clouds of worry from their skies.

Khaby definitely fits completely into the description of his Self; as we say in Ba Zi, “he lives his Self”.

While making fun of ridiculous behavior, and simplifying everything that seems complicated, he also brings smile back on our faces.

If we look closely, we can see that Bing Fire sits on Resource Star (day pillar). Furthermore, Khaby was born in a Resource season, hence Resource Stars definitely govern his character and destiny. Strong Resource Stars make people relaxed, but also good natured, adaptable, and resourceful. They are typically intuitive, compassionate, and emotional individuals. Bing individuals also do take care of those they like and love. While they are witty and talented people with a great sense of humor, they are also capable problem solvers. On the other hand, Resource people also like to be comfortable – as they prefer doing everything in their own pace. Some would say that they could be indolent and lazy, as they typically like chilling, leisure and – sleeping.

Since his Ba Zi chart contains a whole Wood season (Branches of Yin, Mao, and Chen = Tiger, Rabbit, and Dragon), his Resource is rooted, producing happy and satisfied person. In addition, strong Resource brings others’ sympathy, providing him with support, and help whenever needed.

When it comes to Branches (Zodiac signs of Chinese Astrology), Khaby’s chart is balanced. It contains one Storage, one Cardinal and one Growth Star. Also, there is a flow in Stems, that produces Output and Wealth.

The only visible issue in his life comes from Harm, that occurs between Mao (Rabbit) and Chen (Dragon). The placement of this Harm is quite typical for immigrants and people who had to flee (from the Harm of) their birth country. It works on two pillars, year pillar (childhood), and month pillar (young years). However, this Harm also points out to the life-long (legal) issues regarding documents. He should be also very careful when it comes to all types of agreements and contracts (especially in 2023 & 2024). The very same years are the time when Khaby should be watchful regarding health. Possible health issues may arise due to exhaustion and too much activity.

Khaby’s Luck

We all go through individual ten-year Luck Cycles, that affect our lives in numerous, both positive, and negative, ways.

When it comes to Khaby’s luck, he has entered a new luck cycle at the beginning of 2018. This period brought the Fire Element, representing fame and popularity for him!

Clearly, Friend Luck Cycle is a good time to get media attention and acquire followers and fans. Khaby’s Sun (Self) was especially valuable in the years of 2019-2021, for all of us. We recognized him, because in   times of coldness, Fire and everything it represents become vital for people’s mental health. Since social media is also ruled by the Fire Element, this also eased his success, helping him to acquire fame and popularity.

Khaby was just doing the right thing at the right time – which is the definition of a person with good luck.

Khaby’s current Luck Cycle also shows personal transformation (Self combines with Luck Pillar Stem), with increasing popularity.

When it comes to 2020, this year brought alliance with someone in position, although it also came with punishment (issues with health, incomes, and career). The year of 2020 was distinctive because it triggered so called “Three Combinations”, a special relationship of Branches that helps with popularity and reputation.

2021 brought another partial Three Combinations, giving Khaby more fans, increasing his popularity and ushering wealth.

Both 2020 and 2021 also brought protruding Wealth Star (more money), but with certain issues caused by destruction.

The current 10-year Luck Cycle enables rise of his popularity. He obviously uses his inherent ability (HO-making fun, showing talents) to create his social identity, branding himself. However, it is not all peaches in this period, because of the Harm and Punishment with his personal pillar – Day Pillar. Therefore, he should count on repeating personal issues, and instable relationship luck. He should be careful in movement and in traffic, because of the possible sudden and unexpected issues (especially in 2025).

Other than that, Khaby is on his way to prosperity, and we hope there will be more witty posts that make us laugh!
