What the day is good for
Close days favour storing, sealing and repairing; openings, travel and weddings are avoided. Because the day spirit is on the yellow path, the almanac keeps major events on the list.
- Good for: building walls and boundaries, storing and saving and repairs
- Avoid: business openings, travel, weddings and moving in
- Peng Zu taboos: Gui day: do not go to court, or your case is weak and the other side strong (癸不詞訟理弱敵強)

Make it personal
The almanac is the same for everyone. Your own lucky color and best two hours depend on your chart: get them free in Daily Joss, or start with your Joss Profile. Planning something specific? Compare time windows with Joss Timing.
How these are computed: methods and what the Tong Shu is. Good-for and avoid lists follow a simplified table keyed on the day officer; printed almanacs weigh more spirits and can differ.
