The four transformations of a Wu day

Each day's stem gives four stars Hua Lu, Hua Quan, Hua Ke and Hua Ji. This part is the general version; it doesn't look at anyone's chart.

Tan Lang Hua LuPeople warm to you and your energy is high. Good for socializing, learning something new and trying things out.

Tai Yin Hua QuanYou will want to bring more order to your life and your money. A good day for budgeting and sorting things out.

You Bi Hua KePeople around you are more willing to help. Just ask someone to lend a hand.

Tian Ji Hua JiYou may overthink and keep changing your mind. Once you have decided, go with it.

General version: the color follows the day stem’s element and the direction follows the day branch, so it is the same for everyone. Treat it as a light tip for the day, not a promise.

Hour by hour: the twelve double-hours

The Chinese almanac splits the day into twelve double-hours, each watched over by one of twelve day spirits. Six are on the yellow path (auspicious) and six on the black path (inauspicious). The Zi hour straddles midnight, so it appears twice. An inauspicious hour is not off-limits; it just calls for a little more care.

The twelve zodiac signs on February 3

February 3 is a Shen (Monkey) day. This uses the folk zodiac rules of harmony, clash, punishment, harm and break to show how the day meets each sign. It is a traditional zodiac custom, separate from Zi Wei Dou Shu: treat it as a light guide for planning.
