The first month of the 2027 solar year (寅月, Tiger Month) opens with Star 2 Black Earth in the centre — the “sickness star” in the central palace. Combined with Lichun’s annual handover from Horse year to Sheep year, this is a transitional month favouring health-attention and household stability over major decisions.
About the Tiger Month (寅月) in 2027
The Tiger Month (寅月, Lichun ~Feb 4 to Jingzhe ~Mar 6) is the first solar month of the 2027 year and the official transition from the 2026 Horse year to the 2027 Sheep year. The annual TaiSui shift takes effect at Lichun, so households who follow traditional protective practice typically pay respects to the year-deity at the start of this month.
The Tiger Month’s monthly central star is the 2 Black Earth, which means the year’s sickness register is concentrated in the central palace for the month. Layered with the year-level 9 Purple Fire that holds the centre at the annual level, the month combines the annual’s positive recognition register with the month’s health-attention register — a mixed signal favouring careful pacing.
Practical priorities for February-March 2027:
Defer major health-related decisions (elective surgery, intensive medical treatment) to a later month if deferral is feasible
Tigers (born in Tiger years) face their personal birth-month within the year — pair major decisions with date selection
Begin year-long activations: open the Southeast wealth-corner usage, set up daily Northwest career-room work, schedule the year’s major events
Pay respects to the 2027 TaiSui early in the Tiger Month if traditional practice applies

Frequently asked questions
When does the Tiger Month (寅月) start in 2027?
The Tiger Month begins at Lichun (~Feb 4) — the solar term that opens the month in the Chinese solar calendar. Each feng shui month runs from one solar term to the next, with the chart shifting at the boundary.
What does Star 2 in the centre mean for this month?
The monthly central star sits in the home’s qi reservoir for the duration of the month, layering its register over the year-level chart. Star 2 concentrates that register household-wide, making the month most active in activities and orientations aligned with the star’s classical attributes.
