Lunar day 6

The lunar day turns at moonrise, not midnight, so day 6 rarely lines up with a calendar date — most dates hold two different readings. Everything below is traditional material, quoted as it was received.

Favoured on lunar day 6

Start learning something: This day is regarded as one of the best for starting a course, workshop or any new field of study.

Deep clean: Deep cleaning is specifically listed among the productive tasks for this day, as long as it does not become an exhausting project.
Go on a date: The tradition names this a great day for romantic encounters, so a date is well favoured.

Plant or sow: The tradition holds that plants set out on this day grow quickly and fruit richly, though fruit trees are excepted.
Cut my hair: Traditionally an excellent day for cutting hair.
Fix or repair something: Minor repairs are named as productive on the 6th lunar day, though large renovation projects are discouraged.
Pay attention to dreams: The tradition holds that dreams today may be prophetic and should be read through their symbols and one's own feelings.

Discouraged on lunar day 6

Nails: On this day the tradition advises putting off manicures and pedicures.
Move or renovate: Small chores are favoured, but major renovation work is said to bring strain and frustration.
Compete or push hard: This day is held to favour gentle, breath-synchronised movement, with overexertion discouraged.
Make a big purchase: Large deals, such as property purchases, are said to be best postponed on this day.
Sign a contract: The tradition singles out major property deals for postponement on this day, so large contracts of that kind are discouraged.

How much weight to give this

This is inherited material, not a finding. When we checked these readings against the tradition's own named authorities, they contradicted each other on all 29 lunar days — the same day called auspicious by one source and ruinous by another. We publish what the corpus says and label it, rather than choosing the most confident version and calling it settled.

What is exact is the astronomy: when day 6 begins and ends where you are, down to the minute.
