Overview

Record the civil date before matching a luminary to a mansion. A weekday association is not a replacement for the mansion itself.

Read the weekday sequence

Sunday corresponds to 日, Monday to 月, then 火, 水, 木, 金 and 土 through Saturday.

The classical vocabulary includes historical names for the planets; the weekday sequence is not a seven-mansion roster.

Do not confuse two associations

A chart can display the luminary of a weekday and a separately assigned mansion association.

Check the field label before assuming that two different values indicate an error.

Named combinations need two inputs

For example, the classical 甘露 table pairs Sunday with 軫 and Monday with 畢.

Neither Sunday alone nor 軫 alone establishes the combined label.

Historical rules are not instructions

T1299 includes day-specific ritual and activity judgments. Those record a tradition rather than demonstrate modern safety or efficacy.

Do not use a weekday description to delay care or override practical precautions.

What to record

Keep the exact civil date, weekday and mansion method together when comparing calendars.

A screenshot that omits the target date cannot establish which combination was calculated.

Verify a weekday independently

Use the target civil date and timezone to confirm its weekday before looking at the Sukuyo mansion. Then compare both fields with the named combination table.

If the weekday is wrong, a special-day mismatch begins with ordinary calendar data, not with a hidden change in the seven-luminary sequence.
