Hi Andrew

The tong shu for 2012 is not out yet. it will only be out in July/Aug period, hence can only check for general 2012 good dates after it is out. Right now the only way to select is using Bazi.
 
Hi boon2niko

2012 clashes with Dog only.

The tong shu for 2012 is not out yet. it will only be out in July/Aug period, hence can only check for general 2012 good dates after it is out. Right now the only way to select is using Bazi.
 
Hi xrevlis

No you can't. So long as it is witin 3 mths before and after your wedding, you cannot visit baby that is ful mth or less than one mth old. Basically from day one he/she is born till full mth, you cannot see him/her.
 
Hi Li Jun

4th Sept will be better. Clash to dragon and both of you and parents are not dragon. Siblings not counted. We don't factor in siblings. 11th is not good and clash pig, hence cannot be used
 
Hi Master Tong,

Can you help to advise for us a generic date between Oct - dec 2012? Preferable for a weekend date?

Groom - Pig
Groom Dad - Horse

Bride - Tiger
Bride Dad - Rooster
Bride Mom - Pig

Thanks!

Hi Joysnow

As much as i want to help you in the area of general good dates for year 2012, the Tong Shu for 2012 is not out yet, so i will not know or be able to select general Tong Shu auspicious date for wedding for 2012 yet. Right now, the only way and also the right and accurate way of doing it will be using Bazi to select dates. FYI, a date reflected auspicious in the Tong Shu may still be bad for both of you if the date chosen is not compatible wtih both your Bazi.

As for Bazi wedding dates selection, it is part of my consultation service to my clients, hence i can't provide it here free in the forum or it will be unfair to my clients who paid for my service. Hope you understand.

If you have any particular date in mind, just post it here. I can advise you if it is a bad day as there are some days that are definitely bad and cannot be used for marriage; and some days that will clash to either of you or your parents, so cannot be used as well.
 
Hi bluewingz

Yes, the year of the dragon clashes to Dog, hence for those born dog yr, not ideal for marriage (unless no choice HDB is pressing you for ROM cert for flat..then we can only choose the best among the yr).

17/11 clash to Horse, 20/11 clash Rooster, hence out.

12th Nov will be better (clash Ox). Siblings zodiac not taken into cosideration.
 
Hi Master Tong,

I would like to have my solemnisation ceremony on the same day with my wedding dinner. May I seek your expert advise on when will be the best date for Yr2011 and Yr2012 for us to held both?

Groom: Horse
Groom's Dad: Tiger
Groom's Mum: Rabbit

Bride: Rat
Bride's Dad: Snake
Bride's Mum: Horse

Thank you in advance for your advise.

Look forward to hear from you soon.
 
Hi Paz

The 2012 tong shu is not out yet, hence can only advise after it is out in Aug if you are looking at only general dates. For now, the only way and correct way of doing it is using Bazi to select as Tong Shu dates are inaccurate and meant for mass consumption only. Basically if a day is good for marriage, how can it be good for everyone in the whole world?

In any case, by the time the tong shu is out, most of the weekends dates for hotels will be taken up. Hence the best time to select is before the tong shu is out.

For 2011, which month you looking at?
 
Hi David,

would like to ask can the groom follow along / drive the brides parents around when the brides parents are going around to distribute the cakes & cards to relative?

thks.
 
Hi Master Tong,

I am looking at the following dates for my wedding dinner

- 1 December 2011
- 27 December 2011
- 5 January 2012

Could you advise which date is better? Also, if we are having the solemnisation on a different date from the wedding, do we need to check the dates for the solemnisation as well?

Groom - Dog
Groom Dad - Dragon
Groom Mum - Dragon

Bride - Rat
Bride Dad - Rat
Bride Mom - Pig

Thank you!
 
Hi discreed

Only 1 December 2011 is a general tong shu good date and don't clash anyone

Yes ROM is more impt than Banquet,hence you need a good date as well

**Note that bazi is not taken into consideration yet as a good date in the tong shu can still be deemed as inauspicious if the date and both your bazi are not compatible
 
Hi Paz

Here are some general tong shu good dates:

2011:

- 3/11, 09/11, 12/11, 20/11, 24/11, 02/12, 06/12, 13/12, 15/12

2012 (Jan):

- 02/01, 07/01, 09/01

**Note that bazi is not taken into consideration yet as a good date in the tong shu can still be deemed as inauspicious if the date and both your bazi are not compatible

Hope this helps

Bride: Monkey
Bride's parents: Pig (both)

Groom: Rabbit
Groom's mother: Bull (Groom's father deceased)

In addition, which date is good for guo da li?
 
Hi Master Tong,

Would like to check with you if my dad's birthday falls on 20/11, can I still hold my solemnization on that day?

Groom: Dog
Groom's mum: Snake

Bride: Pig
Bride's dad: Monkey
Bride's mum: Ox

I have checked on the Chinese calendar for weekends solemnization, there are only 2 dates suitable for us: 15/10/2011 and 20/11/2011. Is there any other dates we can take if 20/11/2011 will clash with dad's birthday as we are unable to take 15/10 too.

Thank you for your advise.
 
Hi Jayden

The fetch the bride time will be 9-11am. Gate crashing will be before that. U will need to step in to her home at 9am or after, and fetch her back to your home and finish tea ceremon by 11am. Going back her parent's home for tea ceremony no need any timing

Hope this helps

Hi Aurelie Kyinn

July 7, 2012 is the only date that don't clash and possibility of having a good date.

However, the tong shu (almanac) is not out yet, hence will have to wait till Aug to determine if it is a general good date. Right now the only way and correct way to do it will be using Bazi (birthday and time of birth) to calculate. Bazi calculations of dates is personalised to both of you, whereas tong shu method is for mass consumption..ie generic only...it assumes if Dog can get married, then all the Dogs in the whole can get married, which as you know, in real life, this is not possible or true

Hi joysnow

06 Oct 2012 clash to Horse, cannot use.

10 Oct 2012 is a super bad date for wedding

16 Oct 2012 is a super bad date for wedding

Hence all 3 dates cannot be used
 
Hi merry

For all 2012 dates, now is the best time. In fact, most of the 2012 hotels dates are packed already and i already start to calculate 2012 dates for couples since last year this time. In July, i will start the 2013 dates. If you wait till tong shu is out, by then, all weekend dates will be gone for most popular hotels.
 
Hi cylvia

Yes that is a general good date for wedding and don't clash anyone. But do consider if anyone will turn up since it is X'mas eve and most people have their programs (which is y most hotels still have vacancies)

Hi jetan12

Yes, if you consider general tong shu dates, then you are left with those 2 dates from Oct - Dec. Rest clashes.

Normally by feng shui it is ok to proceed, but by chinese superstition, some elderly don't like as it is a clash of luck, so most choose not to proceed. Hence it really depends on how pantang your family's elderly are

Hi master tong,
We have selected 27th nov 2011 as wedding date. The lady was recommended by mil. Now that everything is booked, my mum commented that the whole morning has bad timings until 11am. I am very upset because I was not advised so previously.

I'm Probably going to marry off from hotel so no burning of joss sticks etc. Does the timing still matters?

It's too late for me now. Really upsetting.
