How to Use This 2026 Guide

Calendar edition: 2026 ยท Dates are generated from the traditional calendar method described below.

Because 2026 is the Bing-Wu (Fire Horse) year, this page is written for decisions being made during the current year. Start with two or three dates from the table, then compare registration, permits, suppliers, staffing, customer demand, and cash-flow timing. The 12 Day Officers score explains the traditional pattern; it is not a promise about an outcome.

1. Shortlist

Choose several dates with the same rating instead of treating one date as mandatory.

2. Check reality

Confirm contracts, insurance, inventory, signage, and the actual opening checklist.

3. Decide together

The date supports a launch plan; it does not replace legal, financial, or operational review.
