Yellow path (黃道)

A Korean folk custom used when choosing dates for moving or major events.

A day matching one of twelve day pillars listed in the lower volume of Seontaek Giyo for grave relocation, grave opening, grave maintenance and setting memorial stones.

A day matching one of seven day pillars listed in the lower volume of Seontaek Giyo for date selection across various activities.

A day matching one of ten day pillars listed in the lower volume of Seontaek Giyo for the same date-selection purposes as heaven-deaf days.

A traditional name for each date, such as 甲子 or 乙丑. It combines two sets of symbols called stems and branches and repeats every 60 days.

A traditional system that gives each day one of twelve names, such as establish, remove or full. The name comes from comparing the month and day branches.

A traditional date-selection classification of twelve day spirits, including Azure Dragon and Bright Hall, into six auspicious yellow-path spirits and six inauspicious black-path spirits. The solar-term month and day branches determine the spirit.

A month that changes at solar terms such as the start of spring, rather than on the first day of a lunar month. It is used with the day’s traditional name to calculate date-selection information.

旺, 相, 休, 囚 and 死 are traditional terms for phase relationships between a day and a month. The current app does not score this relationship separately in overall grades or purpose-specific date selection.
