How readers use it

A month you can plan around.

Every transit is mapped to the exact degrees of your chart, and every month is read inside your bigger chapters: your Hellenistic and Vedic timing cycles and your ten-year BaZi Luck Pillar. So you see each day in the context of where your life is right now.

Plan the big days.

Every day is rated against your own chart, so you know when to launch, sign, travel, or stay in.

“I plan launches around dates now.” · Renata C.

Rest without guilt.

When the month asks you to slow down, you’ll know ahead of time and can plan around it.

“I didn’t expect to need as much rest as the reading suggested, but almost halfway through the month it’s rang true for me.” · Emily S.

Eat for the month.

Foods, colors and acupressure points from Chinese medicine, chosen for your elements and the season.

“It’s especially helpful, letting me know what I should be eating to help keep my energy strong that month.” · Becky N.

Go deeper.

A practice and journal prompts for each new and full moon, for the things you’re working through.

“It helped me shift perspective on something that has been holding me back.” · J.C.

Read the almanac, for you.

The 黄历 Huangli almanac has been used for over a thousand years to time decisions that need to last. It’s also hard to read, and the English versions are thin. So I built the version I wished existed: the almanac read against your own chart, alongside Western transits and Vedic timing.

“I hadn’t heard of the Chinese almanac before this and it’s so helpful to see all the days of the month listed out with what the energy of the day supports.” · Julie

Think of it like the weather. You can still go out in the rain, but you'll know to bring an umbrella.

Inside each issue

Everything you need for the month.

Each month, you receive a document written for your specific chart, covering:

  1. 01

    Your days, rated

    Every day of the month marked from Excellent to Dire and read against your own chart, so you know when to launch, sign, travel, or stay in. Subscribers can sync the whole month straight to Google Calendar or iCal.

  2. 02

    Your month at a glance

    The big moments in the sky this month, and which ones actually touch your chart.

  3. 03

    Your body this month

    What to eat, what to go easy on, and simple practices from Chinese medicine to keep your energy steady through the season.

  4. 04

    New moon and full moon

    What each one is asking of you, with a practice and journal prompts written for where it lands in your chart.

  5. 05

    The bigger picture

    Where this month sits inside your ten-year Luck Pillar and your Vedic chapter, so a hard month makes sense.

The Fire Rooster Month

What September holds.

A clarifying month. It favors care over speed and clarity over noise.

Opens

September is a Metal month, the Fire Rooster sitting inside the Fire Horse year. Metal is the season's ruling element, and Rooster energy brings focus, discernment, and precision. As autumn begins, you may feel called to decide what is still worth your energy and what you are ready to release.

September 10 & 11

Uranus stations retrograde on the 10th, shifting change from something happening around you to something you can finally sit with. Venus enters Scorpio and Mercury enters Libra the same day, which gives that date an unusual intensity. The Virgo New Moon on the 11th offers a gentle reset, a lovely time to clear a backlog or refine the small systems that make everyday life easier.

September 23 & 26

The Equinox on the 23rd is the month's turning point. Then the Aries Full Moon on the 26th brings something to a head, and because it falls close to the nodal axis, what completes may have been building for far longer than two weeks. Courage and impatience can arrive together, so give yourself a little room before acting.

The almanac

September carries seven Excellent days and six Auspicious ones. But a day that looks wonderful in the general almanac may not suit your chart: each day carries an animal branch, and if it clashes with one of the four in your own, the energy can work against you. Your workbook names those days clearly, so you don't have to work it out on your own.

“Literally - your compass - Jing knows you better than you”

Everything makes so much more sense now - with the balance of the different disciplines - this is what it means for you, and here's what you should avoid/do. It is SO incisive that you will have wished for this compass for all your life up to now.

3 of my friends also signed up because I could not stop about the compass - and they all say the same. This truly sees me for me. I also have the daily app - and I consult it many many times every day. It is amazing!

★★★★★Donna C.

“The most detailed monthly reading”

I use all of the readings. It gives me a sense of the 'weather' going on in my life. It confirms when I'm feeling tired (stop pushing), and when the energy is supporting moving forward. Some months more than others, I practice the new moon and full moon rituals. It makes me think about the forces that are carrying me through this life.

★★★★★Nysha N.
