Days to avoid
These days are rated against renovation and groundbreaking dates in the almanac, either because it forbids the occasion outright or because the day's officer and spirit weigh too heavily against a new beginning.
Make it personal
Breaking ground and major building work are read under 动土 and 修造, with 上梁 (raising the beam) as a supporting sign. The list above is the general reading. A day that suits the almanac can still clash with your family's zodiac signs, and Vietnamese families add Tam Nương, Nguyệt Kỵ and Kim Lâu on top.
