Privacy and use
No name, account or email required. Birth details remain in page memory and are removed on clear or reload. They are not stored or added to URLs. Only language preference is saved locally. The site is funded by ads: pages load Adsterra ads in an isolated frame, and Adsterra and its partners may receive your IP and browser information and use cookies for ad delivery and measurement (privacy policy: https://adsterra.com/privacy-policy/). The ad frame cannot read this page, and we never provide birth details or charts to advertisers. Pages also load an Adsterra popunder (clicking the page may open an ad tab in the background, frequency-capped per visitor) and a Social Bar (a corner overlay). These two scripts run on the page itself: we do not deliberately provide birth details or charts to advertisers, but we cannot prevent a third-party script from reading the page; use your browser's ad blocking if this concerns you. Each move to another page is a full page load. Visitors in the EEA, UK or Switzerland must agree before ads load. No analytics or external AI requests are enabled. You can refuse ads with your browser's ad or cookie blocking; the tools keep working.
About this tool
The Chinese almanac records each day's lunar date, stem-branch, solar term, suitable and avoid activities and clash. This page shows today's date where you are, and you can change it to any day.
Data is computed by the open-source lunar-javascript library. The suitable/avoid lists are the shared, general almanac and not tailored to your birth chart; for personal date picking use the date-finder and luck-calendar tools.
FAQ
Which time zone is “today”?
Your browser's local date, not a fixed Taiwan date; use the date field to pick any day.
Can I pick dates directly from the lists?
As a general reference, yes. For weddings or moving in, confirm with a personal reading or a professional.
Why do some days list many items and others few?
They follow the day's 12 officers, 28 mansions and stem-branch, so the count naturally varies.
Is my data uploaded?
No. Everything is calculated in your browser.
