Pick a good day
Auspicious days from your chart — for the moment that matters.
Why some days never appear — the clash and harmony of your day branch
Every scanned day starts at 60. A day carrying your favorable element adds 14; a day in harmony with your day branch adds 10; a day carrying that purpose's star adds 12; a day carrying your unfavorable element loses 12. A day that clashes with your day branch is not scored at all — it is dropped before scoring, so the days in the clash column below never reach your list.

| 巳Snake | 亥Pig | 申Monkey |
| 午Horse | 子Rat | 未Goat |

Each purpose reads a different star: opening or signing reads the wealth star, an exam reads the resource star, a move reads the settling Earth energy, travel reads the travel-horse branch (驛馬), and a wedding reads the spouse star.
The spouse star is gendered in classical practice — wealth for a man, officer for a woman. When we do not know your sex we accept either one instead of guessing; nobody is quietly treated as a man.
How day-picking (택일) is calculated
The best days in a date range for a purpose you choose — wedding, moving, business, exam, or travel — scored against your own chart.
For each candidate day we compute its real pillar, compare its element to your favorable element (용신), add a bonus for stars tied to your purpose, and hard-skip any day whose branch clashes (沖) with your day branch.
We don't guarantee an event will succeed on a recommended day, and we don't score in percentages — this rates elemental fit, not outcomes. No medical, legal, or financial advice.
How day-picking (택일) is calculated
A day whose branch clashes (沖) with your day branch is traditionally treated as a hard skip, not a matter of degree — so we exclude it outright rather than giving it a low score.
No. It scores how well the day's elemental energy fits your chart and purpose — it isn't a guarantee, a probability, or advice on the event itself.
