The dates you listed follow a traditional Chinese almanac pattern sometimes associated with “破日” (Break Days), “杨公忌日” traditions, or certain folk Feng Shui / Tong Shu avoidance days. In some Chinese metaphysical schools, these dates are considered unfavorable for major commitments such as:
-
Marriage
-
Signing contracts
-
Starting partnerships or joint ventures
-
Opening business
-
Moving house
-
Important negotiations
-
Large investments
Your list:
-
Lunar 1st month — 13th day (一月十三)
-
Lunar 2nd month — 11th day (二月十一)
-
Lunar 3rd month — 9th day (三月初九)
-
Lunar 4th month — 7th day (四月初七)
-
Lunar 5th month — 5th day (五月初五)
-
Lunar 6th month — 3rd day (六月初三)
-
Lunar 7th month — 1st day (七月初一)
-
Lunar 7th month — 29th day (七月二九)
-
Lunar 8th month — 27th day (八月二七)
-
Lunar 9th month — 25th day (九月二五)
Notice the pattern:
Every month decreases by 2 days:
13 → 11 → 9 → 7 → 5 → 3 → 1
Then continues:
29 → 27 → 25
This sequence is well known in some traditional Chinese date-selection systems.
Traditional belief says these days may bring:
-
Agreements breaking apart
-
Business disputes
-
Marital disharmony
-
Delays and reversals
-
Financial leakage
-
“Good beginning, bad ending” situations
Especially avoided for:
-
Wedding registration
-
ROM
-
Partnership agreements
-
Property purchase signing
-
Long-term investment commitments
However, many modern Tong Shu practitioners will still check:
-
Personal BaZi compatibility
-
Year/month clashes
-
Heavenly stems & earthly branches
-
Directional Sha Qi
-
Zodiac clashes
-
Day officer system (建除十二神)
So a “bad” folk date can sometimes still become usable if the individual chart is strong enough.
An important traditional saying:
“好命不怕凶日，坏命难担吉时”
(Strong destiny can withstand a bad day; weak destiny may not benefit even from a good hour.)
Also note:
-
These are lunar calendar dates, not Gregorian dates.
-
Different schools may use slightly different taboo lists.
-
In modern practical life, many successful businesses and marriages still happen on such dates. Traditional systems treat them as “risk management,” not absolute fate.
The most sensitive among your list is often considered:
-
五月初五 (Dragon Boat Festival period)
-
七月初一 (start of Hungry Ghost Month in some traditions)
because they carry heavier Yin or unstable energy symbolism in folk belief.
