Which is the correct Date for Shifting House?

[myfs_130831]

Dear Master Cecil:

I find your website very user friendly and informative!..

I have 1 question though. recently, i checked the Chinese Calender (Those with auspicious &inauspicious predictions) and it shows that 16th of december is a good day for shifting house.

I chanced upon geomancy.net"30Day Free Auspicous Date for 2 Persons" of which after i entered my Birthdate and My Wife's Birthdate, It shows that 16th December is an inauspicous Date for me and Average for my Wife, while 18th December is auspicous for both of us...What does this mean?? Does it mean that the chinese calender is inaccurate? Your advice here isgreatly appreciated..

What you need to remember is that a typical chinese calendar DOES NOT personalise to any one person. So it is a general date that is supposed to be good or bad for everyone.

In general, there are two ways to check an auspicious date:-

1. Just do a quick lookup in a Tung Shu or Chinese Alamac, and pick the date that is deemed auspicious for whatever event you are looking for. Often, you still have to double check yourself if the day clashes with your horoscope sign etc. (This is at least the basic check you need to consider as the Chinese Alamac does not personalise to any one person.)

2. If you have a personalised auspicious date, that considers your ba zi etc. Just like our free 30-days auspicious date. Then this report will superceed the general tung shu. The reason is because, even if a day is deemed good in a Tung Shu, but sometimes that day may also clash with your ba zi/horoscope. Then it may not be as good as a date that does not clash with your ba zi and is only an average day in the tung shu.

Either way, if you use method 1 then you do not check on method 2. If you use method 2, then you can ignore the method 1 as the additional personalisation has been considered.

Our analysis will consider the key Tung Shu events, in addition to the ba zi of yourself and your wife. So it will find an optimium day that will fit both of you and be at least an average/good day under the tung shu. This date will be much more personalised that the normal calendar date.

The date that the normal calendar forecast is general, you often still need to do your own additional elimination such as whether the day clashes with your horoscope sign or even a more detailed check if the day clashes with your ba zi (if you are able to calculate it yourself).

Hope that helps.
