Jade Codex: Chinese Almanac

Is today a good day? Jade Codex is a traditional Chinese almanac (黃曆, the tong shu) that answers from the day itself, and from your own chart. IS TODAY A GOOD DAY? Every day has a complete 黃曆 page: the full 宜 and 忌 lists, the 建除 day officer, the 值神 spirit, the lunar mansion, the 彭祖百忌 caution, the clash animal and the directions. Free, complete and the same for every reader. YOUR BAZI CHART, BY TRUE SOLAR TIME Enter your birth date for your Four Pillars chart (八字): Day Master, favorable elements and this year's 流年; Premium opens the ten gods and every decade-luck pillar. An exact birth time is corrected to true solar time for your birthplace. Then today is read against your chart: a tier for the day and a line on what to do. PICK A GOOD DAY A wedding, a move, a haircut? Choose from more than 100 undertakings and see the days in the next 30 that the almanac favors for it, each with its reason. Premium looks 90 days ahead and ranks the days for your chart. NEW IN 2.4: THE DAY AND THE SEASON • Today opens on the Day Leaf (日箋), free, with an evening stamp. • From the December solstice: the Nine Nines of Winter (九九消寒圖) and your year as a handscroll. • Start of Spring, Spring Festival, Lantern Festival and Awakening of Insects each bring their own leaf. • Share the day's line on a jade slip, or send it to someone. ORIGINS Origins (源流) is a river of 29 turning points, from the Shang day count to the Qing almanac, in four lanes: Calendar, Changes, Birth and Dreams. Each claim is marked History records, Unearthed text, Scholars differ or Tradition says, and most turning points link to the part of the app they became. ALSO INSIDE • The Jade Codex Commentary: the received I Ching and all 384 line texts, with an original commentary. • I Ching: cast with three coins; read the received text and changing lines beside a modern rendering. • Your Chinese zodiac sign, and how this year's Tai Sui meets it. • 972 Chinese dream symbols in the 周公解夢 tradition. Describe a dream in your own words. • The Resonance Clock: the double hours, the 72 pentads and your birth on one wheel, with alarms by the double hour, dawn alarms and twelve 律 bells. • Widgets for the Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy, Control Center, Siri and Shortcuts; Origins and the 64 hexagrams in Spotlight. • English, 简体中文, 繁體中文 and Español, each complete, up to the largest text sizes. WHERE THE NUMBERS COME FROM Everything is computed on your device. Solar terms come from a table precomputed from NASA JPL's DE440 ephemeris. 宜/忌 come from a 通書 table; the day officer and clashes follow 《欽定協紀辨方書》 (Qing, 1741). The Sources & Lineage page names every source. PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION No ads, no account, no server. Your birth data never leaves your device.
