How these dates are chosen

The almanac term used here is 修造 (building and repair), listed on Initiate (執) days. Breaking ground (動土) is never on our simplified good-for list, so we list 修造 days that do not mark 動土 as avoid. Days whose branch clashes the year branch (歲破, "year-breaker" days) are removed: 3 days in 2027. Month-breaker days (破) never carry 修造 in our table. Everything is computed for Hong Kong time (UTC+8); dates are the same across East and Southeast Asia, and the daily pages show the hours.

Make it personal

A date that suits the almanac can still sit badly with your own chart. Your Joss Profile shows your day and year branches; Joss Timing scores the hours of a chosen date with Qi Men Dun Jia, and Your 2027 ($19.99) lists your personal good days for every month.

Questions about renovation and building work dates

How many good renovation and building work days are there in 2027?

29 in calendar 2027 by our almanac table, after removing 3 year-breaker (歲破) days. 8 fall on a Saturday or Sunday.

What is the best weekend date for renovating, building or starting works in 2027?

Weekend dates on the list include Sat, January 2, 2027, Sun, February 21, 2027, Sat, March 6, 2027, Sat, April 24, 2027, Sun, June 13, 2027 and Sun, August 1, 2027. Check that the date does not clash your zodiac sign or your partner's.

What does "clashes" mean on an almanac date?

Each day's branch clashes one zodiac sign. If the day clashes your sign (or, for weddings, either partner's), tradition suggests choosing another date from the list.

Are these dates the same as a printed Tong Shu?

Not always. Our good-for lists come from the twelve day officers and the yellow/black path spirits; printed almanacs weigh many more spirits. Use the list as a short-list and check your own chart.
