The almanac describes the day for everyone. Cast a free BaZi chart to see how the day meets your own day pillar — the date picker can then skip days that clash with you.
Stems and branches, do's and don'ts, guardian spirits, day officers and clashes are calculated from the traditional calendar (Beijing time) — no AI. The almanac is traditional culture, for everyday reference; please don't base major decisions on it.
