How to read this day

This almanac uses the RenShen 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: Marriage, Betrothal gifts, Make alliance, Sacrifice. Avoid: Planting, Dig wells, Break ground, Set up bed. 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: XuHai; celestial deity: Heavenly Prison(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, Monthly Grace, Four Phases, King Day; unfavorable deities include Moon Build, Small Time, Earth Talisman, Five Separation. Both can appear on the same date, so their quantity alone does not determine the result.
