Good days · Engagement
Engagement dates in October 2026
The almanac favours 5 days in October 2026 for an engagement.
A day counts when the almanac lists any of these under 宜, the activities a day favours:
- 订婚 Engagement
- 纳采 Betrothal gifts
- 订盟 Making an alliance
The table gives every day of the month with its day pillar, its day officer and the animal it clashes. Stars are the almanac’s general score for the day, from its officer and its belt. They are the same for everyone.

For your own chart
This is the almanac’s reading of each day, the same for everyone. A favoured day can still clash your own chart. An engagement day that clashes either partner’s year or day branch is ruled out, so both charts count.
