Date Selection Service
The purpose of Date Selection is to prolong the good energy of a moment by doing the right thing at the right time in the right place. The goal is a helpful and predictable outcome.
Selecting a date for an important and specific purpose such as water placement, a business or product launch, or even international travel requires more expertise. If you are in a clash year, taking extra care with timing can make a big difference in how things turn out.
Learn to Read the Hsia Calendar in Chinese
If you’re familiar with the 10 Heavenly Stems and the 12 Earthly Branches, it will only take an hour to get comfortable navigating and using the lunisolar Hsia calendar. Sometimes known as the 10,000 year calendar, the Hsia calendar (book) is a fundamental tool for drafting Ba Zi by hand. Using a book is less expensive and more fun than using a calculator. Go analog!
Wood Snake 2025 Wall Calendar
The Wood Snake 2025 Wall Calendar is a regular Gregorian style calendar with the Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch for each day.
The illustration for each month includes the name and start date of the Chinese month. They don’t conform to the Gregorian calendar. In the background of each calendar is the lucky flower for that Earthly Branch of the Chinese Zodiac.
Student’s Key to the Hsia Calendar
The Key includes instructional materials for writing the 10 Heavenly Stems and 12 Earthly Branches, four calendar pages for practice, the 5 Rats Chasing Hour Table, the 5 Tigers Chasing Month Table, and tables for identifying all of the Chinese characters you’ll need to convert a Gregorian date into the 8 Characters that make up a Ba Zi. If Ba Zi is not your thing, you can learn to read the Chinese calendar for your own purposes.
Pairs perfectly with the Hsia Calendar Book.
Date Selection 1 : Concepts
