Fast, professional and super nice people. Definitely recommended.

As far as major life events go, moving houses has got to be one of the biggest outputs of energy, time and planning, up there with weddings and other significant events.

There are helpful tools such as Top Move to simplify the moving process and make it less costly. Beyond metrics and logistical moving support, many people turn to the ancient Chinese philosophical practice of Feng Shui for guidance in moving-related decisions.

Feng Shui is a traditional practice that uses energetic forces such as water and landscapes to harmonise an environment, thereby improving mental health and relationships. Qi (pronounced “chee”) is the cosmic current or energy flow present everywhere.

Feng Shui seeks to improve the flow of Qi in places and structures using astronomy, astrology, architectural design, cosmology, geography and topography as influential factors.

Are there auspicious dates for moving?

According to the Chinese calendar and Chinese astrology, there are both auspicious and inauspicious days for moving.

To get even more specific, there are “clash zodiac signs” on specific days, indicating which days are unlucky to move, depending on your personal Chinese zodiac sign. Each day also has an “evil direction”, signifying a direction that is not lucky on that day. Depending on which direction your new home faces, some days are luckier than others for your move.

Chinese Ghost Month

In Chinese culture, the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month is known as Ghost Day, and the entire month is called Ghost Month. Similar to western culture’s Halloween, Mexico’s Day of the Dead and the Celtic Samhain, it is believed that ghosts and spirits, including deceased ancestors, emerge from the lower realm to visit the living. On Ghost Day, Taoists and Buddhists perform rituals to alleviate the suffering of the deceased.

Ghost Month is considered an inauspicious time for moving because moving to a new place is thought to disturb spirits and ghosts, potentially bringing bad luck or negative energy. It is a taboo to make any major life changes or decisions during Ghost Month.

This year, Ghost Day falls on Sun, Aug 18, 2024, and ghost month is the 13 days before and after Ghost Day.

A Feng Shui calendar to help bring luck, harmony and prosperity to your moving day

Use the following monthly charts to determine which days are lucky for your new move, and which days are to be avoided.

January Lucky Dates to Move Houses

While many people would dread moving houses in the cold month of January, there are some benefits. January offers an opportunity to save money. It is not a typical time to move, so both moving companies and real estate sellers often have lower rates and prices. Also, you can spend time off work during Christmas and New Years holidays to pack, downsize and prepare for your move.

Jan 1st is the start of the Western calendar year and can symbolise a new chapter or new beginnings. According to Feng Shui, the January stars favour the northwestern and southern orientations.

For any symbolic home improvements such as setting up an altar or photo gallery, aim for the northwest corner. According to tradition this will help channel positive energy exactly where it's needed.

February Lucky Dates to Move Houses

Chinese New Year falls on Feb 10th, 2024, making February a perfect month for new beginnings and a new home.

Just like in January, February is another winter month where moving companies have more availability and potentially lower rates. Houses on the market may have lower prices as well.

Water is life-giving and therefore symbolises prosperity in Feng Shui principles. The majority of days in February are water days, making it easy to find a perfect day to move houses.

March Lucky Dates to Move Houses

Many different cultures celebrate their calendar new year in the spring closest to the Spring Equinox, which always falls around March 21st. Spring is naturally a time for new beginnings and growth, making it a positive time to move houses and start fresh in a new environment.

The Feng Shui Flying Stars of March indicate that the lucky dates of this month are especially favourable for moving, as the stars indicate a time of prosperity.

April Lucky Dates to Move Houses

Continuing with the spring theme of new beginnings, the month of April often brings higher temperatures combined with periods of rain. The earth becomes more fertile and the soil warms, allowing for the continuation of new growth.

There is hope in the air and a promise of warmer weather to come, making April a perfect month to push forward with big life decisions including moving or launching a business.

There are Feng Shui practises to help bring warmth and positive energy into your new home during a move. Play uplifting music in your new home as you are moving in, and choose a vibrant colour to wear on moving day. Placing flowers in your new home will create a feeling of welcoming.

May Lucky Dates to Move Houses

The old saying “April showers bring May flowers” couldn't be more accurate. May is when things start to warm up and blossom, and the senses are awakened to a prism of colours, lush, floral aromas and sounds of birdsong.

Beltane is an indigenous European fertility celebration that historically fell on the May new moon and is now celebrated on May 1st.

Fertility and promise of abundance are excellent qualities for choosing a day to move into a new home and create harmony.

Feng Shui emphasises the importance of a clean, clear environment. After you’ve moved in and placed your belongings in their new spot, do a thorough dusting and vacuuming of your new home. This will allow for the positive flow of energy, or Qi, to circulate throughout your home.

June Lucky Dates to Move Houses

With 10 lucky moving dates to choose from, you are almost guaranteed to find a day that lines up with the zodiac placements of you and your family, as well as your new home’s facing direction.

June is an activated month where everyone is preparing for the glory of summer and the school year is coming to an end. By waiting until the end of June to move, you can avoid the complications of moving while children are still finishing their studies.

When moving into a new home, place special care in how you set up your entryway. This is an area where all of the energies of the house flow though. Aim for a well-lit, spacious and clean entrance hall. This space will influence the vibrations throughout the entire home. Adding good-luck charms can boost good energy.

July Lucky Dates to Move Houses

By the time July rolls around, summer is in full swing and energies are peaking in intensity and vigour. This potent time is perfect for moving houses.

Capture the light by using mirrors strategically. Mirrors can be placed in dark rooms or corners to expand space and reflect light, bringing energy into a Feng Shui “dead zone”. Natural light has the most positive energy, so place mirrors in areas where they can amplify natural light.

July is a time of abundant fresh flowers in all different vibrant colours. When arranged with care, fresh flower bouquets can create a harmonious flow of energy for your home, encouraging positive feelings, tranquillity and inviting good fortune. Choose appropriate colours according to Feng Shui colour theory to achieve the vibe you are seeking.

August Lucky Dates to Move Houses

August is Ghost Month (see above) in the Chinese Calendar, with Ghost Day falling on August 18th. While it is thought to be inauspicious to move during Ghost Month, there are dates that are considered luckier than others. If you make sure that your and your family’s zodiac signs align with the moving day astrology, you can be sure to have a harmonious move.

Despite being Ghost Month, August is always a favourable time to move and settle in before children begin their new school year.

September Lucky Dates to Move Houses

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, there is a fifth season called Late Summer. Late summer is characterised by a still, dreamy quality where the days effortlessly float by as the nights cool down and harvests ripen.

September embodies those late summer qualities making it a great month to move houses as the stillness can bring a sense of calm to the process.

October Lucky Dates to Move Houses

October offers dates boosted with luck and good fortune. October is a month that lines up with the zodiac sign of the Dog, bringing qualities of likeability and loyalty.

Fall is in full swing in October, a time for feasting, gratitude and connection. Set up your dining area with warm colours and comfortable seating, in preparation to welcome family and friends in a tradition of sharing and harvest abundance.

November Lucky Dates to Move Houses

November is another month that is packed full of auspicious dates. Having a larger selection of lucky dates for moving allows for more flexibility and ease when choosing your moving day.

The cooler temperatures of November allow for added physical comfort and coolness during exertion, as boxes and furniture are being hauled around. The long nights encourage opportunities to experiment with different lighting including dimmers, lamps and candles.

November is typically a time where people spend more time inside. Bring the healing, harmonious energies of nature into the home by adding houseplants to your indoor spaces.

December Lucky Dates to Move Houses

December has fewer auspicious dates for moving, but the ones that are lucky are extra potent.

The month of December is traditionally a time for both introspection and family, so make sure to prioritise quiet moments amidst the bustle of moving, and don’t forget to take the time and effort to deepen connections with family.

Air flow is a crucial factor in Feng Shui. During the cooler months, it's important to get enough fresh air. Open doors and windows regularly to allow fresh air circulation throughout your house. Ventilation plays a big part in promoting energy flow throughout a structure.
