Lucky direction calendar
You can choose dates for moves and trips from days when the year, month and day boards all agree. Seven Red Metal Star, Two Black Earth Star (born 1984/8/20): a sample.
This month's good direction: East (Start of Winter, 11/7 – Major Snow, 12/7)
In the original, luck from the day board alone carries the least weight. The original does not set out luck ratings for the eight directions of the day board, so the calculation engine does not give them yet. Not in the original
Sample This month there are 7 days when all three agree
This list is a sample (an example for someone born on 1984/8/20). The original has no rule for the luck of the day board, so the calculation engine does not make it.
- 11/18 (Wed)Eight White Earth Star in the East of the day board (Nourishing Ki from 7 Red, Kindred Ki from 2 Black)East
- 11/20 (Fri)Six White Metal Star in the East of the day board (Kindred Ki from 7 Red, Giving Ki from 2 Black)East

The 2 days already past (11/9 and 11/11) are counted but left out of the list.
The year and month agree 3 times in the next 12 months
Knowing early makes it easier to time a move or a long trip. You can see which months have one, and which do not, for free.
For months with no good direction, the original Unsei Hiroku also writes 「吉方なし」 (“no lucky direction”) in the month heading. Stated in the original
Sample See which direction your destination falls in
Not West, but Southwest (Kon)
「從來一般に、東京と大阪とは東西であるやうに信じられて居たが、之は明らかに坤艮の關係であつた。」Kaisei Hōi Meikan, original p. 27 (“People have long believed that Tokyo and Osaka lie east and west of each other, but this was clearly a southwest–northeast relationship.”)
Using widths of 30° for north, south, east and west and 60° for the corners, we find the direction from your home to the destination (a members' feature).
Open a month, and it looks like this
In this month, the year board and the month board have the same arrangement (Nine Purple Fire Star at the center).
Counting the “45 days”
| Moving day | 2027/7/10 (the date you entered) |
|---|---|
| Day 45 | 8/23 |
| Day the month board changes in between | 8/8 (Start of Autumn) |
「萬一事情の許さぬ場合は一時（四十五日）以上吉方位へ轉居し、今度は轉居先を中心として自宅が吉方となる時期を待つて、再び元の家に歸り來るのである。」Kaisei Hōi Meikan, original p. 47 (“If circumstances do not allow it, move to a lucky direction for a while (45 days) or more; then, with the new place as the center, wait for the time when your home becomes a lucky direction, and return to it.”)
Stated in the original A temporary stay follows the original's method of moving to a lucky direction.
Adding your family's stars
When you add your family's dates of birth, only the months and directions lucky for everyone remain. Stated in the original
「本人並に家族の吉方位に全然住居を移轉するのがよろしい。」Kaisei Hōi Meikan, original p. 47 (“It is best to move your home entirely to a lucky direction for yourself and your family.”)
