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. The day branch also clashes the year branch (申), a "year-breaker" day that many almanac users skip for big events.
- Good for: building walls and boundaries, storing and saving and repairs
- Avoid: business openings, travel, weddings and moving in
- Peng Zu taboos: 庚不經絡織機虛張;寅不祭祀神鬼不嘗

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.
