Auspicious Days in August 2026: Remaining Dates This Month

From 24 August, the remaining Auspicious Days in August 2026 sit on 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 and 30. Yi Jiaqu remains on 24, 26, 28 and 30; Yi Chuxing on 24, 25, 26 and 30; Yi Ruzhai on 26 and 30; Yi Dongtu on 24, 25, 27 and 30. Yi Kaishi remaining is 0 after 24 August, so a shop that still wants a traditional opening day waits for September. Tickets, hotel rooms and building management outrank the almanac when they collide with any of those dates.

Which remaining dates still sit in late August?

The working file below copies lunar day, stem-branch, clash and first jishi from the 15 August 2026 scrape. Open each English day page before you print a wedding card, a moving notice or a groundbreaking permit. None of these six rows marks Yi Kaishi.

Treat that table as the late-month file of Auspicious Days in August 2026. If a flight, hotel block or building office already occupies one row, stay inside the same six Gregorian dates instead of adding 29 or 31 August.

Yi Jiaqu remaining: 24, 26, 28 and 30 August

The four leftover marriage days are 24 August Gengwu (first jishi Zi, Jinkui), 26 August Renshen (Zi, Qinglong), 28 August Jiaxu (Yin, Siming) and 30 August Bingzi (Zi, Jinkui). 25 August Xinwei lists marriage among affairs to avoid, so a banquet that misses 24 August jumps to 26, 28 or 30. Hotel contracts still decide the night.

Yi Chuxing remaining: 24, 25, 26 and 30 August

Travel stays on 24 Gengwu, 25 Xinwei, 26 Renshen and 30 Bingzi. 27 August Guiyou lists travel among affairs to avoid, so it never joins this Chuxing set. Buy the ticket you can actually board.

Yi Ruzhai remaining: 26 and 30 August

Only two leftover days mark moving in: 26 August Renshen and 30 August Bingzi. 24 August Gengwu lists Jiaqu and Dongtu, yet it also lists moving in among affairs to avoid, so a family that wants both a wedding banquet and a housewarming on the same Gregorian date cannot use 24 August for the keys. Building access hours on 26 and 30 still sit above the Ruzhai mark.

Yi Dongtu remaining: 24, 25, 27 and 30 August

Groundbreaking remains on 24 Gengwu, 25 Xinwei, 27 Guiyou and 30 Bingzi. 26 August Renshen lists moving in and travel, and it lists groundbreaking among affairs to avoid, so a crew that needs both Ruzhai and Dongtu on one day has only 30 August left this month. The building office still closes the trench if it refuses the date.

Yi Kaishi remaining is 0: store openings wait for September

The judgment that matters after 24 August is simple: Yi Kaishi remaining is 0. A ribbon-cutting, first trading day or stall opening that still wants the traditional market-opening mark has no August row left among the Auspicious Days in August 2026. Later hours on 24–30 August do not restore a Kaishi line that the scrape already left blank.

What “remaining is 0” means for a shop

Kaishi is the market-opening mark, a separate line from Jiaqu, Chuxing, Ruzhai and Dongtu. 24 August can hold a wedding or a groundbreaking; 26 and 30 August can hold a move-in; none of those days reprint Kaishi. Staff who already printed an August opening poster should move the date into September.

Days that list market opening among affairs to avoid

28 August Jiaxu and 30 August Bingzi go further: the scrape lists market opening among affairs to avoid, together with drawing up contracts and acquiring property on 30 August. A grocer who sees Jiaqu or Ruzhai on 30 August and treats that as a shop-opening green light is reading the wrong line.

Yi Kaishi remaining after 24 August is 0, so store openings wait for September.

Where the September file sits

Do not invent September Gregorian dates from this August scrape. Open Auspicious Days in September 2026 for the next month’s candidate list, then confirm the hour on the Chinese Calendar day page. Year-end openings that skip autumn altogether belong on Auspicious Days in December 2026.

1. Confirm the affair you need: Jiaqu, Chuxing, Ruzhai, Dongtu, or Kaishi.
2. If the affair is Kaishi, leave August and read the September English page.
3. If the affair is one of the four leftover marks, pick only from the six dates in the table.
4. Freeze tickets, the hotel and the building office before you freeze the first jishi.

• Airline and train tickets already issued for 24–30 August.
• Hotel banquet rooms that cannot add a wedding on 24, 26, 28 or 30.
• Building management hours that block a 26 or 30 August move-in.
• Site permits that refuse groundbreaking on 24, 25, 27 or 30.
• Clash notes and later named hours on each English day page.

This list of Auspicious Days in August 2026 is a calendar mark. It does not forecast a lucky shop, a smooth move or a happy marriage.

Frequently asked questions

Are any Yi Kaishi days left after 24 August 2026?

Yi Kaishi remaining is 0 from 24 August, so store openings wait for September; 28 and 30 August even list market opening among affairs to avoid.

Can a shop open on 30 August because it marks Jiaqu, Ruzhai and Dongtu?

30 August Bingzi marks marriage, travel, moving in and groundbreaking, and it lists market opening, drawing up contracts and acquiring property among affairs to avoid, so read Kaishi as its own line.

Must travel or a banquet start at the first jishi?

The first jishi is the first named slot: Zi at midnight on 24, 26, 27 and 30 August, Yin on 25 and 28 August. A lunch banquet still needs a later hour on the same day page.

What if 26 and 30 August are already full for moving in?

Those two dates are the only leftover Yi Ruzhai days. 24 August lists moving in among affairs to avoid. If both 26 and 30 August fail building access, the move leaves August and you read September next.
