Let a quiet question meet the rhythm of month, day, and hour.
Enter a lunar month, day, and hour, or use the current local lunar date.
For entertainment and personal reflection only. Never use a reading for medical, investment, legal, or other important decisions.
Little Liu Ren follows a cycle of Peace, Lingering, Swift joy, Sharp words, Small blessing, and Open space. The tool shows the month, day, and hour positions so you can follow the inclusive count. The final palace is a symbol for reflection, not a measurement of luck.
Enter a Chinese lunar month and day, not a Gregorian calendar date. “Use this moment” converts your device-local date when the browser supports the Chinese calendar. Our midnight date boundary and numbered leap-month rule are explained below; other traditions may count differently.
Starting at Peace, count the lunar month inclusively. From that palace, count the lunar day inclusively, then count the double-hour index from Zi (1) through Hai (12). This site uses this one common convention; traditions differ.
“Use this moment” uses your device timezone and Chinese lunar calendar. A leap month uses its numbered month without adding one. The lunar date changes at midnight; 23:00 is Zi hour without advancing the date. You can enter values manually.
No. The six palaces are used as symbolic reflection prompts. Neither favorable nor unfavorable names establish what will happen. Never use them for important decisions.
