An auspicious day classification does not suit every activity. The filter also checks activity-specific officers and customary avoidance dates; unclear cases are not promoted to favorable dates.

Method and references

Lunar dates and cyclical days use Vietnam time (UTC+7). Day officers follow solar-term months: a day sharing the month branch is Establish, followed by the twelve-officer sequence. On a transition date, the new solar-term month applies to the whole civil day.

Day classifications use the day branch and lunar month; leap months retain the same month number. Auspicious hours use the day branch separately. Rat hour is shown from 23:00 on the previous day to 01:00 on the selected date. For 23:00 today, consult the next date’s Rat hour.

The filter favors auspicious-class days with a suitable day officer and no Tam Nuong or monthly avoidance flag. Any caution leads to a consideration label; missing or conflicting guidance stays neutral. This is the tool’s combined rule, not a luck score.

Activity guidance refers to Phong Thủy Tường Minh’s twelve-officer table. Entries listed as both suitable and unsuitable remain inconclusive. This filter does not include personal age compatibility, the twenty-eight lunar mansions or departure directions.

A favorable date does not replace preparation, agreement or practical conditions. Continue everyday study, work and spiritual practice with peace of mind.
