Reading July 15, 2026
In the almanac tradition, July 15, 2026 carries the day pillar 庚寅 (Gēng Yín), a Yang Metal day whose Day Officer is Danger (危 Wēi), the precarious officer, which classical sources treat as a day for quiet observances and caution in exposed undertakings. The classical sources describe the officer as the first sort in any date grade, the kind of motion the day carries before any personal chart is considered. The full cycle is set out in our guide to the Twelve Day Officers, and the page it is printed on is explained in the Tong Shu almanac guide.
The 通勝 (Tōng Shèng) lists this day as a yellow path (黃道 huáng dào) day, broadly favourable, with the 28 Mansion star Three Stars (參 Shēn) overhead. Its clash falls on the Monkey: people born in Monkey years meet the clash (沖 chōng) here and traditionally keep the day routine.
Every fact on this page is deterministic and can be checked against any published almanac. What a generic grade cannot see is your own chart.
