Today's Three Pillars and Day Master

On July 26, 2026 (6th Month, Day 13th), the day is Inauspicious under Vermilion Bird. Xin is a Yin Metal stem with Earth on the Wall NaYin. Metal is associated with precision and discipline.

Today's Do's and Don'ts

12 Hour Pillars

The day splits into twelve two-hour periods, each ruled by one of the twelve Yellow Road or Black Road spirits. The Zi hour straddles midnight, so it appears twice: early Zi opens the day and late Zi closes it, each with its own pillar. Each hour also lists the almanac's own "Good for" and "Avoid". That is a separate method from the ruling spirit, so the two can disagree; an hour both call good is the safest pick.

Almanac Details: Day Officer, Lunar Mansion and Spirits

What a traditional Tung Shing reads for date selection. The Twelve Day Officers set the tone of the day, the ruling Lunar Mansion adds its own luck, the day's spirits each favour or forbid certain acts, the Fetal God position marks where a household with a pregnancy should not build or move things, and Peng Zu's Taboos are old sayings tied to the day's stem and branch.

Today and the 12 Zodiac Signs

Each sign's branch is read against today's day branch: combination helps, clash, punishment, harm and break hinder, and no relation makes a steady day.

Rat

: Combines with today. People cooperate, so close deals and settle unfinished business.

Ox

: Your sign rules the day, so its energy moves with yours. You carry weight today, but you are also the most visible.

Dragon

: Break with today. Plans shift easily, so keep a fallback and avoid finishing everything in one go.

Horse

: Harm with today. Losses come quietly rather than openly, so watch favours and hidden costs.

Goat

: Clashes with today, the strongest disruption. Travel and move, but avoid signing or confronting.

Rooster

: Half-combines with today. The support is mild, so push along what is already moving.

Dog

: Punishment with today. Expect friction and wasted effort, so leave room and avoid head-on pushes.

Ten Gods: Today for Each Day Master

The day's Heavenly Stem plays a different Ten God for every Day Master. Find yours to see whether today arrives as wealth, authority, resource or peer energy.

Pillar Interactions

The stems and branches of the Year, Month and Day pillars interact through combination, clash, punishment, harm and destruction. Together these decide whether the day's energy gathers or scatters.

• Stem CombinationBing + XinYear Pillar, Day pillar · Day Master

  Two Heavenly Stems bond and hold each other; this site reads the pair as binding, not as transforming into a new element. Partnerships, contracts and alliances come together more easily today.

• Stem ClashYi + XinMonth Pillar, Day pillar · Day Master

  Two Heavenly Stems of the same polarity attack each other, so opinions collide. Slow decisions down and avoid confrontation.

• Six HarmonyWu + WeiYear Pillar, Month Pillar

  Two Earthly Branches bind together and draw energy inward. Good for meetings, agreements and tying up loose ends.

• Six ClashChou + WeiMonth Pillar, Day pillar · Day Master

  Two directly opposite branches collide, bringing movement and upheaval. Better for travel and relocation than for signing or finalising.

• PunishmentChou + WeiPunishment of ArroganceMonth Pillar, Day pillar · Day Master

  Branches punish each other, bringing friction and self-inflicted trouble. Reflect and clear old matters rather than push forward.

• HarmChou + WuYear Pillar, Day pillar · Day Master

  Branches harm each other, often through hidden loss or strained goodwill. Watch who you work with and guard against disputes.
