About Lucky Feng Shui

For the better part of a decade, until 2016, this domain was an online feng shui shop. It sold Tai Sui amulets, tong shing (通勝, the Chinese almanac) calendars and diaries, lucky charms, coins, and figurines - "feng shui products at affordable prices," as its own banner put it for years. Its busiest shelves were always the annual ones: how to settle the year's Grand Duke, which calendar to hang, what the new year called for.

The shop closed, and the domain drifted through unrelated hands for some years after. In 2026 it changed hands again and is now maintained by the team behind zhiji, a Chinese-metaphysics companion app. We kept the subject and dropped the store. The old site sold the almanac; it never explained it. Explaining it is now the entire site.

What this site is

The timing desk: when to do it, by the Chinese calendar. The site covers the year you are standing in (Tai Sui and the signs that offend it, your own zodiac year, the year's colors, and a luck checker that reads your animal's standing from your birth year), picking a date the traditional way (weddings, moving house, opening a business, even haircuts), the system behind all of it (the Chinese almanac itself), the customs of the calendar (Chinese New Year taboos, red envelope amounts), and the questions people actually ask.

What it does not cover is deliberate. Room placement, directions, and feng shui objects are their own subject, and identity readings from your sign or chart are another. This site is about time: this year, this month, this date.

What this site is not

A shop - which, given this domain's history, is worth stating twice. We sell no amulets, no charms, no calendars, no consultations, and no cures. When a page describes a traditional object or custom, it describes what the tradition holds about it - it is never a pitch, because there is nothing here to buy.

The editorial standard

Every date list on this site is checked against two to three independent published almanac sources before it goes live. A date the sources disagree on is dropped, not averaged. Where almanac schools differ - and they do, which is why two printed almanacs can mark the same day differently - we say so instead of silently picking one. Dated pages, like the year's Tai Sui page, are marked with their year and refreshed when the year turns.

The tradition is presented as the tradition: calendar customs with their own internal logic, explained on their own terms. No page on this site promises an outcome, and no page ever will.
