Gui Chou

Lunar 3/6 · Receive

Na Yin

Mulberry Wood

craft, livelihood, and usefulness grown by hand

Xun-kong

Jia-Chen decade

Void branches: Yin / Mao · This ten-day xun begins with Jia-Chen decade; Yin / Mao act as void-branch cues. Treat them as a prompt to check whether a promise has landed in reality.

Six-day rhythm

Tomobiki

bring allies in and avoid forcing a split

Moon phase

Waxing moon

Light is increasing: build rhythm and make small things steady.

Clash-sha

Clash Wei · Sha East

Clash-sha is a warning bell: when Wei themes appear, slow the move, soften the tone, and avoid forcing a result.

Daily directions

Wealth direction

South

Use the wealth direction as a cue for resources, budgeting, receiving, and value review.

Joy direction

Southeast

Use the joy direction for warmer tone, invitations, and softer relationship repair.

Noble cue

Mao / Si

Noble branches point to complementary perspectives; they do not guarantee a specific person will appear.

Fetal-spirit cue

doorway and threshold · South

Fetal-spirit direction is a classical timing reference: keep renovation, noise, and heavy movement gentle around the indicated side.

This page translates Tong Shu categories into practical planning language. For professional date selection such as weddings, renovation, or burial, consult a qualified practitioner.

Auspicious spirits

Mother Storehouse

gather, archive, and protect useful reserves

Heavenly Joy

receive good news without overpromising

Beak

Today's mansion draws from White Tiger; its working image is "speech, selection, and verbal edge".

Caution spirits

Robbery Sha

do not collect what should be released

Clash Wei

When Wei appears in people, timing, or context, slow down before concluding.

Two-hour rhythm

Traditional shichen divides the day into twelve two-hour windows. Use it to plan energy, not to outsource judgment.

Reference anchors

The system follows common public calendar patterns: lunar date, ganzhi, solar terms, 12 day officers, 28 lunar mansions, hour periods, and practical yi/ji language.

Hong Kong Observatory Calendar HKO Stems and Branches Tong Shu Almanac 12 Day Officers Time and Date Chinese Calendar

Stillness Dao is a digital tool for education, entertainment, and self-reflection based on traditional Chinese metaphysics. Readings describe timing patterns and practical signals for guidance only — they are not deterministic, promise no guaranteed outcomes, and are not a substitute for professional financial, medical, or legal advice.

Almanac layers

A thicker day reading combines day officer, lunar mansion, and branch relations before you choose an action.

12 Day Officer

Receive

collecting, archiving, receiving feedback, bringing scattered things home

do not hoard what should be released

28 Lunar Mansion

Beak

#20

White Tiger

speech, selection, and verbal edge

The 28 mansion is used here as an almanac-style reference layer, adding imagery to the day pillar without turning it into absolute fortune.

Branch relations

Clash with Wei

The day branch opposes Wei. If that branch appears in a person, time, or situation, slow the reaction and check assumptions.

Harmonizes with Zi

Zi gives a six-harmony cue. Good for finding complementary support, negotiation, and repair.

Hidden friction with Wu

Wu can describe subtle friction. Name small misunderstandings before they become larger.

Day meaning

Gui Chou Day Meaning

Gui Chou places "mist and rain: sensitivity, subtlety, memory, and quiet nourishment" inside "winter storage earth: reserves, patience, and what needs thawing". The point is not fortune first; it is how Water finds a workable posture inside real conditions.

Heavenly stem image

mist and rain: sensitivity, subtlety, memory, and quiet nourishment

Earthly branch scene

winter storage earth: reserves, patience, and what needs thawing

Questions

What small step today will leave a signal, not only a mood?

Am I growing, sorting, holding, expressing, or avoiding?

If I write one Journal entry tonight, what do I want to be able to review?

Practical use

Replace an abstract wish with one checkable action.

Compare the yi/ji prompts with your actual schedule; do not obey them blindly.

When the clash branch appears in people or timing, delay the first reaction.

Seasonal field

Classical cautions

Peng Zu lines are preserved as cultural memory and translated into modern caution, not fear.

Avoid weak arguments. Gather signals before entering dispute.

Branch caution

Avoid formal display before the base is ready.

These classical lines are preserved as cultural texture, not literal threat; the page translates them into verifiable modern cautions.

Good for

Research, rest, listen, journal, and let a difficult question become more specific.

Use quiet time for strategy rather than public reaction.

Use "preparation" as today's rhythm keyword.

Work with the Gu Yu seasonal tone through one adjustment to verify.

collecting, archiving, receiving feedback, bringing scattered things home

Avoid overdoing

Avoid disappearing from a responsibility that needs a simple update.

Do not let uncertainty become endless delay.

Use metaphysics language to choose timing, tone, and sequence; still talk clearly and keep the real-world details in view.
