What is the Chinese Almanac?
The ancient chinese almanac (better known as Thoong Sing or Tung Shu) has more than a thousand years of history and research, and it is the Chinese system of measuring and recording the passage of time. The system of timekeeping in feng shui is a combination of the lunar and solar calendars, or more appropriately, a lunisolar calendar. It actually records the months that mirror the movements of the moon and the years reflect with the seasons of the sun.
The almanac is used to indicate traditional festivals and to select dates for important occasions such as renovation, wedding and moving house. For the farmers, it is used to time agricultural activities in the countryside. Ordinarily, the Chinese live their daily lives on a monthly basis according to the lunar cycle, which mark the new moon and full moon days. On the other hand, the farming community, feng shui masters and fortune-tellers subscribe to Solar Hsia calendar which follows the time of the sun.
For centuries such ancient almanac has been consulted for suitable dates on everything to assist us in Feng Shui practice and forecast individual's luck for the day. Today, it is widely used by many giant corporates to advice on selection of appropriate days for almost every important activity, from groundbreaking ceremonies to signing new agreements, launching of a new products, opening a new office, wedding ceremonies to be held, renovations and moving houses.
2010 Spring Ox Diagram
The spring ox diagram appears on the first page of the chinese almanac every year. It foretells the weather for the upcoming year, which is a very important aspect in a farmer's life. The diagram will show the spring ox and the god of spring. They will come in different and unique characteristics in different years. These characteristics (color, size, posture, outfit etc) will determine everything spelt for the year.
1. The year of golden tiger is a yin year because the tail of the ox bends to the right. Also the mouth of the ox shuts and the God of Spring stands on the right of the ox.

Important Day Taboo for Extremely Important Occasions ***
It is vital to know that there are a few days in every month which are prohibited for important celebrations even though the feng shui almanac indicates the days to be good or excellent. Important celebrations are such as wedding celebration, signing an important contract, starting a new business and starting a new career. These dates are known as the "San Niang" Killing days (San Niang Shar). No matter how good the almanac describe these days, please avoid them by all means.
The "San Niang" Killing days are 3rd, 7th, 13th, 18th, 22nd and 27th day of every LUNAR month. Please take note that the days refer to "lunar days" and does not refer to western calendar days.
Most inexperienced masters or younger generation who refers to modernized almanac may not be aware of this important rule of thumb. We would like to share this secret tip that has never been revealed over the internet before because we have seen so many cases of bad spell happening to those who have chosen these days, such as divorce, collapse of business, unsuccessful career etc.
Some grand masters will deliberately pick these days, which is termed as "Dou Shan" Killing (Dou Shan Shar).Unless the eight characters ("phat chee" or "ba zi") of the person concerned is in great favour of that day. To pick this day, if one is lucky enough, the luck will turn 180 degrees for the better. On the contrary, it will bring disastrous results. Therefore, it is recommended to avoid these days by all means to prevent regrets.
How to Read the Almanac?
1. One will have to find out their planned agenda for the day. Eg. moving house, carrying out a renovation etc.
2. Then find a day that does not conflict ones zodiac and age. This is very important. If the day is in conflict with ones zodiac, then avoid carrying out the important agenda by all means.
3. Check also to make sure that the day falls on a San Niang Afflicted Day. If yes, avoid it by all means.
4. Weigh if the day is only good for that specific task or if it is generally a good day. One can guess if the day is a lucky day, fairly lucky day, neutral day or unlucky day by checking if the day is suitable to manage the number of task. The more tasks one can carry out, the better is day's luck. For example, if a day is good for opening business but not good for renovation or moving house, then it is considered as a neutral day. But if a day is good for everything, then it can be considered as a lucky day.
