Chinese Calendar June 2027: Lunar Dates, Day Officers and Auspicious Days
30 days · Grain in Ear and Summer Solstice · 4 wedding dates, 4 for moving house and 2 for opening a business
June 2027 has 30 days in the Gregorian calendar, and the Chinese calendar cuts them twice over. The lunar calendar runs lunar month 4 (四月) from 1 June 2027 to 4 June 2027 and lunar month 5 (五月) from 5 June 2027 to 30 June 2027. The solar half of the same system — the one the almanac uses to set each day's pillar — hands the month over from the Snake month 乙巳 to the Horse month 丙午 at Grain in Ear (芒种) on 6 Jun 2027, 05:25 (Beijing time, UTC+8).
Two solar terms fall in June 2027: Grain in Ear (芒种) on 6 Jun 2027, 05:25 (Beijing time, UTC+8) and Summer Solstice (夏至) on 21 Jun 2027, 22:10 (Beijing time, UTC+8). The almanac (通书 / 黄历) entry for each of the 30 days in the table below carries its own stem-branch day pillar, one of the twelve Day Officers, the animal the day clashes with, and the activities the classical tables mark as favourable.
All 30 days belong to the 丁未 Fire Goat year, which began at Lichun, 4 Feb 2027, 09:46 (Beijing time, UTC+8). Days whose branch clashes with the year branch 未 are Sui Po (Year Breaker) days and are struck out of every list below — in June that is 3 June 2027 (癸丑), 15 June 2027 (乙丑) and 27 June 2027 (丁丑).
Under the strict reading used on this site — Day Officer Stable, Success or Open, the activity listed as favourable and not as unfavourable, no Sui Po day and no four-separation day — June 2027 has 4 wedding dates, 4 for moving house and 2 for opening a business. 7 of the 30 days carry a Destruction or Danger officer or are Year Breaker days, and are listed further down as days to take slowly.

Days to take slowly in June 2027
Two rules put a day on this list: a Day Officer of Destruction (破) or Danger (危) — the two the classical tables rate lowest for starting anything — and the Year Breaker (岁破) days, whose branch clashes with the year branch. Nothing here is forbidden; the tradition is to keep such days for maintenance, clearing out and repairs rather than for beginnings.
| Date | Day pillar | Day Officer | Why it is on this list |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-06-01 Tue | 辛亥 | 破 Destruction (Po) | Destruction officer |
| 2027-06-02 Wed | 壬子 | 危 Danger (Wei) | Danger officer |
| 2027-06-03 Thu | 癸丑 | 成 Success (Cheng) | Year Breaker — clashes with the year branch |
| 2027-06-14 Mon | 甲子 | 破 Destruction (Po) | Destruction officer |
| 2027-06-15 Tue | 乙丑 | 危 Danger (Wei) | Danger officer + Year Breaker — clashes with the year branch |
| 2027-06-26 Sat | 丙子 | 破 Destruction (Po) | Destruction officer |
| 2027-06-27 Sun | 丁丑 | 危 Danger (Wei) | Danger officer + Year Breaker — clashes with the year branch |

Frequently asked questions
- How many auspicious days does the Chinese almanac give for June 2027?
- 4 wedding dates, 4 for moving house and 2 for opening a business — 10 entries across the three events, out of 30 days. Each date has to clear the Day Officer filter, the almanac's own favourable list, the Year Breaker and the four-separation days. A day can qualify for more than one event, so the three lists overlap.
- When is Dragon Boat Festival in 2027 and what does the almanac say about that day?
- Dragon Boat Festival (端午节) falls on 9 June 2027, month 5 · day 5 in the lunar calendar. The almanac gives that day the pillar 己未 and the Day Officer 除 Remove (Chu); it clashes with the Ox. It does not pass the strict filter for a wedding, a move or a business opening — festivals are family occasions, and the almanac rates them on their own pillar like any other day.
- Why is 20 June 2027 excluded even though its Day Officer looks fine?
- It is a four-separation day (四离四绝): the day immediately before Summer Solstice (夏至), which arrives on 21 Jun 2027, 22:10 (Beijing time, UTC+8). The classical rule is that the old season's energy is spent and the new one has not begun, so weddings and major moves are held over. June 2027 has one such day, and it is this filter — not the Day Officer — that keeps it out of the three lists above.
