The six-state counting method
Minor Liu Ren uses a repeating sequence commonly labeled Great Peace, Lingering, Swift Joy, Red Mouth, Small Fortune, and Emptiness. This implementation converts the entered civil time to a lunar month and lunar day, identifies the traditional double-hour, and advances through that six-state sequence. The exact modular expression is printed beside every result.
Because the method is a count rather than a random draw, the same local date and time return the same state. The English prompt is an original, cautious reflection on the state name; it is not a translation of a secret judgment and does not claim to predict an event. Showing the lunar inputs lets readers compare the count with another school or hand calculation.
Conventions that can change the state
Sources differ about whether counting starts inclusively, which state begins the sequence, and how the late Zi hour belongs to a day. A civil time close to midnight can therefore produce a different lunar day or hour index under another convention. This page uses its calendar library’s lunar conversion and the visible zero-based modular formula rather than presenting one unexplained label.
The location is not collected, so longitude and historical daylight-saving corrections are not applied. The input is local civil time as entered. For a lineage-specific practice, use the rule taught by that lineage and document it. A difference caused by method is not repaired by repeatedly adjusting the time until a more favorable state appears.
An educational result, not a forecast
The result can help a learner understand how lunar month, day, and hour are combined in a compact traditional system. A short prompt may also encourage a pause, clarification, or practical next step. It does not establish that a journey, relationship, investment, medical treatment, or legal matter will succeed or fail.
The date and time are processed in the browser and are not attached to an account. Avoid using another person’s private birth information without permission. When real consequences are involved, rely on current evidence, qualified professionals, and the needs of affected people. The six-state label remains cultural reference material rather than a decision rule.
