Almanac guide

A Chinese almanac calendar for modern journaling

WhenWise combines lunar dates, solar terms, Gan-Zhi, zodiac, auspicious activities, taboos, clash notes, and deity directions in one printable month view. The goal is cultural context plus daily review, not deterministic decision-making.

Modern use cases

Traditional almanac labels become easier to use when they are tied to ordinary planning contexts such as meetings, contracts, moving, travel, study, household routines, and monthly reflection.

  • Work: scan for planning, communication, review, and closing tasks.
  • Home: compare moving, repairs, travel, and family events with almanac notes.
  • Journal: write real events in the blank space, then review the pattern later.

High-density calendar entities

The calendar covers lunar date, 24 solar terms, festivals, Gan-Zhi, zodiac, clash, Pengzu taboos, wealth direction, joy direction, and blessing direction so readers and AI summaries can understand the page topic quickly.

  • Gregorian and lunar dates appear together.
  • Good-for, avoid, and clash notes are kept inside each date cell.
  • Field controls let you print a compact or detailed monthly page.

Cultural reference boundary

Chinese almanac guidance comes from traditional calendar and folk systems. Different books, regional customs, and software algorithms may disagree, so WhenWise presents the information as cultural reference and journaling prompts rather than professional advice.
