Avoid

Nothing listed (无)

The good-for and avoid lists come from the open-source lunar calendar library (6tail), whose author built them from a popular Chinese calendar website’s data. Almanacs differ on these lists, and unlike the rest of this site they are not quoted from a classical text. How the rest is worked out

The hours, on the clock in Kuala Lumpur

Almanacs give the hours by the sun: the Horse hour is 11 to 1, when the sun is highest. In Kuala Lumpur today the sun runs 87 minutes behind the clock, so on your clock the Horse hour is 12:27–14:27. The table is already converted. Why

Lucky or unlucky by the spirit ruling the hour: six walk the yellow path and are lucky (Green Dragon, Bright Hall, Golden Casket, Heavenly Virtue, Jade Hall, Keeper of Fate); the other six walk the black path.

This day for each day master

BaZi reads a day by what its stem is to your day master, and a month by the month’s stem. This day’s stem is Yin Wood (Yi, 乙); this month, the Water Tiger month (Ren Yin, 壬寅), has Yang Water (Ren, 壬). Each links to what the classics say about it. Don’t know your day master? Read each day against your whole chart

The Peng Zu taboos

A rhyme every almanac prints: one line for the day’s stem, one for its branch.

Yi days: do not plant, or a thousand seedlings will not grow. (乙不栽植千株不长)

Rabbit days: do not dig a well, or the water will not be sweet. (卯不穿井水泉不香)

God of Joy (Xi Shen, 喜神): northwest. God of Wealth (Cai Shen, 财神): northeast. God of Fortune (Fu Shen, 福神): southwest.
