Even when i was a very young kid, my grandmother would hold on to the Tong Shu (Chinese Almanac) for just about everything.  Yes.. !! i mean everything… even to washing her hair.  Some days it is not good to wash one’s hair, so she said.   So what is this Tong Shu.. i hear you asking..?? it is the bible of those practicing feng shui or otherwise.  The Chinese used it for centuries and it is being used as a guide for selecting the “good” dates for very important occassion or activiites.

Never had my grandmother not consult this Tong Shu to plan for anything concerning the family especially a wedding. Definitely a no-no to have a wedding on a bad day.. and if they couple ever divorce, they would blame it on the dates.  How true is it..??  Is it superstition..??  I don’t think so.. like i said. .feng shui is about practicality, feng shui is about .. your environment .. the good chi and the bad ones.  So why not right..?? even if it was for a peace of mind.. i would. In a good Tong Shui book.. not necessary written in chinese these days.. English ones are also available.  And a good tong Shu book, you find a daily guide to good and not so good days for certain activities and event.
