What does an auspicious day mean?

An auspicious day is a unique term in the traditional Chinese calendar "Huangli" (perpetual calendar), which refers to a day when everything is auspicious. In the lunar calendar, the "Qinglong, Tiande, Yutang, Siming, Mingtang and Jinkui" among the "Twelve Evil Gods" are called the Six Zodiac Days, and the "Chu, Wei, Ding, Zhi, Cheng and Kai" among the "Twelve Duty Days" are called the Minor Zodiac Days.
Judgment method:
1. Choose the day when the six zodiac gods, namely, Qinglong, Tiande, Yutang, Siming, Mingtang and Jinkui, are present;
2. Combine your own Bazi and remove the days that are bad for you due to conflict, restraint, punishment, or harm;
3. Avoid the following days:
① Four days of separation: the day before the spring equinox, autumnal equinox, summer solstice, and winter solstice;
②Four absolute days: the day before the beginning of spring, summer, autumn and winter;
③Four waste days: Spring: Gengshen and Xinyou days. Summer: Ren Zi and Gui Hai days. Autumn: Jiayin and Yimao days. Winter: Bingwu and Dingsi days.
④ Ten evil days: If the days fall on Jiachen, Yisi, Bingshen, Dinghai, Wuxu, Jichou, Gengchen, Xinsi, Renshen and Guihai, they are the ten evil days.
⑤ Three Niangsha Days: The third day is Gengwu day, the seventh day is Xinwei day, the thirteenth day is Wushen day, the eighteenth day is Jiyou day, the twenty-second day is Bingwu day, and the twenty-seventh day is Dingwei day, for a total of six days. The probability of this happening will not be too high.
