The first ten days after a New Moon are considered portentous.
THE FIRST DAY is good to begin new ventures, but if you fall ill on
this day the malady will last a long time. Children born at a New Moon
will live long and prosper.
THE SECOND DAY gives excellent prospects for sales people. In fact, it
is a good time to buy or sell anything. It is auspicious for sea
voyages, for farmers to plough and for seeds to be sown. Children born on
this day be very persuasive.
THE THIRD DAY is an ominous one, so care should be taken.
Double-dealers and criminals fare worst because they are likely to be caught.
Children born now may be sickly.
THE FOURTH DAY is good for the start of any construction work. All
domestic affairs, and those connected with houses and buildings generally
will be successful. Children born on this day will be subtle and may
favour politics.
THE FIFTH DAY reveals the weather pattern for the rest of the month. It
is an excellent time for the conception of a child to occur. Children

THE SIXTH DAY is most auspicious for those who hunt or fish, since the
haul will be good. Children born on this day will be enterprising and

THE SEVENTH DAY is the best for affairs of the heart to flourish. Take
note of anyone you meet on this day, for romance is in the air.

anyone who contracts an ailment on this day. Children born now will have a
leaning towards the medical profession.
THE NINTH DAY's influence warns of madness if one should allow the

THE TENTH DAY is good for travel and explorations of any kind. Children
