The sixth solar month (未月, Sheep Month) is the year-branch’s personal month — the Sheep within the Sheep year. Star 6 White Metal (authority) sits in the centre. For Sheep-born occupants, this is the year’s most concentrated ben-ming-month register.
About the Sheep Month (未月) in 2027
The Sheep Month (未月, Xiaoshu ~Jul 7 to Liqiu ~Aug 8) is the year’s pivot point. The year-branch (未, Sheep) takes its own month within its own year — the doubled ben-ming register. Sheep-born occupants face the year’s most concentrated personal-pressure month and benefit unusually from traditional protective practice plus careful date selection for any major decision in this window.
The monthly central star is the 6 White Metal — one of the four classically auspicious stars, associated with authority and structural decision-making. The Sheep Month combines the ben-ming pressure with the 6 White’s authority register: classical reading is that authority decisions made in this month carry extra weight for both good and stressful outcomes.
For Ox-born occupants (clash with TaiSui), the Sheep Month is the year’s peak pressure window. Defer major Ox decisions out of this month where deferral is feasible. For Rabbit and Pig-born (Wood trinity allies), the Sheep Month is favourable for trinity-ally activity. For other zodiacs, the month is shaped primarily by personal chart factors.

Frequently asked questions
When does the Sheep Month (未月) start in 2027?
The Sheep Month begins at Xiaoshu (~Jul 7) — 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 6 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 6 concentrates that register household-wide, making the month most active in activities and orientations aligned with the star’s classical attributes.
