Different tools consider different information
| Tool or rule set | Information considered | Important distinction |
|---|---|---|
| General almanac | Dates and traditional activity categories | May not account for a person, location or orientation |
| Five Elements reference | Stem-branch relations and selected rules | Review the particular rule and its scope |
| Tianxing date selection | Occasion, place, time and relevant orientation | Check local information and completed checks |
| Tianxin Zhengyun | A separate rule and source-table system | Distinct from Seven Governors and Four Residuals calculations |
Prepare the project information
- Choose the actual activity from the available screen options, such as an opening, wedding, moving or construction.
- Specify a genuinely flexible date range and distinguish local clock time from its time zone.
- Confirm the location and add measured orientation information when the activity requires it.
- Use a participant’s chart if appropriate, or choose not to combine Bazi. A wedding with one person’s information remains a one-sided reference.
Read dates, local time windows and limitations first
Results can include leading candidates, alternatives and detailed explanations. Some inputs produce no suitable candidates. If information is missing or a check was not performed, read that limitation rather than assuming all conditions were verified.
Requesting AI interpretation of a saved candidate explains that particular date result; it is different from creating a new project or rerunning selection. AI explanations can still be wrong, so verify dates, places and other key facts.
A fixed date is not a flexible date range
An examination scheduled by an authority follows that schedule. Only genuinely bookable dates or sessions can be considered as alternatives. A date-selection result cannot establish whether someone will pass an examination.
Medical timing, legal deadlines, safe construction conditions and actual contractual obligations take priority. If moving includes construction on the same day, confirm the relevant setting rather than treating the activities as identical.
Read Tianxin Zhengyun’s scope separately
Its current product documentation covers residential construction, burials, ancestral halls, moving and weddings. Its rules and source coverage have explicit boundaries; this does not mean every traditional source or activity has been fully implemented.
Features and source coverage can differ across distribution channels and versions. A day-level reference should not be expanded into an assumption that orientation-related checks were also completed.
Before downloading or buying
The current Pro plan includes Tianxing date-selection tools, subject to the App and relevant store. Confirm the activity and distribution version you need before choosing membership.
Traditional calculations do not guarantee outcomes for a marriage, business opening or move. Real arrangements should satisfy safety, legal requirements, mutual agreement and practical feasibility first.
