Chinese Almanac for Sunday, December 12, 2027
On Sunday, December 12, 2027 (day 15 of the 11th lunar month, 丁未 year of the Goat), the Chinese almanac (Tong Shu) marks a 乙丑 (Yi Chou) Remove (除) day on the yellow (auspicious) path of the Heavenly Virtue: good for deep-cleaning, bathing and resets, clearing old matters and prayers and wishes, avoid weddings, business openings and long journeys. The day clashes the Goat, with the sha direction East.

What the day is good for
Remove days favour clearing, cleaning and closing old matters rather than big celebrations. Because the day spirit is on the yellow path, the almanac keeps major events on the list. The day branch also clashes the year branch (未), a "year-breaker" day that many almanac users skip for big events.
- Good for: deep-cleaning, bathing and resets, clearing old matters and prayers and wishes
- Avoid: weddings, business openings and long journeys
- Peng Zu taboos: 乙不栽植千株不長；丑不冠帶主不還鄉

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.
