The source lists in Yi: Remove constraints (解除). It lists in Ji: no specific activities. 馀事勿取: Do not undertake other matters beyond the listed Yi activities. This limits the list; it is not a recommended activity or permission to add other necessary tasks. Each entry names a specific traditional activity: ritual offerings are not general reflection, and sealing holes is not cleaning or moving into a home. Related activities are not interchangeable.
Match traditional terms to the actual plan. The day record still matters more than any single label.

The source lists these specific traditional activities in Yi. Each term keeps its own meaning; it does not permit related activities.
The clash animal is Rabbit. In traditional almanac reading, people whose zodiac is Rabbit may treat this as a reminder to slow down around high-stakes plans, formal commitments, or conflict-prone conversations. The cue is clearest when it leads to calmer timing and better preparation.
East is the day's caution direction. Traditionally, Sha direction is handled with extra care for major starts, movement, renovation, or ceremonial activity. For everyday plans, it works as a planning note: confirm the setting, reduce avoidable pressure, and keep ordinary life moving with awareness.

Selected traditional Huang Li rules are used for daily almanac references. Almanac editions can vary, so read this as a planning reference rather than a fixed promise.
Calendar data: lunar-javascript 1.7.7, compiled for 2026. This table does not include auspicious hours or day officers.
A Chinese almanac date brings together several records: Gregorian date, lunar date, day pillar, Yi and Ji actions, clash animal, caution direction, and seasonal markers when they appear. Read the whole record before turning it into a plan.
The date record is the base text. It identifies the lunar date, weekday, day pillar, zodiac year, solar term when present, and the original source terms listed under Yi and Ji. Without those fields, the page cannot explain why the day is being read in a particular way.
The activity gives the record scale. A wedding, a work opening, a home repair, a contract, a trip, and an ordinary errand do not carry the same weight. The almanac term has to be matched with the actual decision before the date can become practical.
| Date record | Lunar date, weekday, day pillar, zodiac year, solar term, Yi/Ji, Chong, and Sha. |
|---|---|
| Activity context | The same almanac term changes weight across marriage, travel, business, repair, signing, and daily errands. |
| Personal context | Optional birth-based reflections are shown separately; they do not change the public Yi/Ji record. |
