What the day is good for
Full days favour gathering, trade and collecting; planting and new posts are traditionally put off. Because the day spirit is on the black path, major events such as weddings, openings and moving in are taken off the good-for list.
- Good for: prayers and wishes, deals and trading and collecting money
- Avoid: breaking ground, planting and starting a new role
- Peng Zu taboos: 癸不詞訟理弱敵強；巳不遠行財物伏藏

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.
