Our experts at OnlineChineseAstrology.com have compiled a list of your auspicious/lucky and inauspicious/unlucky days for the month of December.  These lists are created according to the ancient Chinese Farmer’s Almanac, which has governed the planning of Chinese farmer’s and nobles alike for thousands of years. Our modern interpretation uses the Chinese constellations to determine favorable and unfavorable characteristics of each day. In addition, we use Four Pillar analysis to determine lucky and unlucky days and hours. With this information, we have taken the liberty to modify some of the categories to fit with modern activities and we have omitted some of the strictly farm related categories.
