Use this calendar to plan your shopping and events.

What are the twelve zodiacs that tell us about daily good and bad fortune?

The ``12 shifts'' are Tatsu, Nozoku, Mitsu, Taira, Sadan, Toru, Yaburu, and Ayabumu.・It is one of the notes included in the calendar, consisting of XNUMX characters: Naru, Osan, Hiraku, and Tozu. It is said to have originated from the belief in the Big Dipper, and from the Edo period to the early Showa period, the ``Twelve Days'' were more often seen than the ``Rokuyo'' when examining daily fortunes and misfortunes.
