How to read this day

This almanac uses the GengShen day stem-branch as its calendar coordinate. Start with activity-specific guidance, then use the clash, void, and deities as context. No single entry is an overall score for the day.

Start with the activity

Suitable: Consecration, Travel, Marriage. Avoid: Meet friends, Increase household, Construction, Break ground. These entries answer what an activity is traditionally suited to, rather than rating the whole day.

Then read the day relations

Clash: Monkey day conflicts with Tiger; void: ZiChou; celestial deity: Heavenly Punishment(Inauspicious day). These are general calendar annotations and do not replace real-world constraints or personal information.

Read favorable and unfavorable deities together

Favorable deities include Monthly Virtue, Minister Day, Six Harmony, Five Wealth; unfavorable deities include River Chief, Death God, Monthly Punishment, Wandering Disaster. Both can appear on the same date, so their quantity alone does not determine the result.
