今日中國黃曆

The Chinese almanac, called Tong Shu (通书) or Huang Li (黄历), is a day-by-day calendar that families have used for centuries to pick dates. For every day it lists activities that are favored and activities to avoid, based on the day’s stem and branch, the twelve day officers, the yellow and black path spirits and other traditional rules.

Look for your activity in the "good for" list, and make sure it is not in the "avoid" list. 適合婚嫁, moves and openings, many families also check that the day does not clash with the zodiac signs of the people involved. Treat it as tradition: practical needs and your own judgment come first.

Each day has an earthly branch, and it clashes with the opposite branch, six signs away. On a day that clashes with your sign, tradition suggests keeping big launches, signings and moves for another day. It is a mild caution, not a warning of bad luck.

The almanac shows both calendars. Festivals follow the lunar calendar, while the day officers and the good and avoid lists follow the day’s stem and branch and the solar terms. That is why the same Gregorian date gives a different reading every year.

Sometimes. Printed almanacs follow different schools, so lists can differ slightly. This page follows a widely used modern edition. For a major event, many people also ask a practitioner to check the date against the birth charts involved.
