Welcome to Qi Calendars!
My husband and I embarked on an exciting journey to create Qi Calendars, featuring our unique Annual Qi Lunar Calendar Datebooks. This datebook serves as a canvas for sharing the profound insights I’ve gained from delving into the ancient wisdom of the Huangdi Nei Jing – The Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic. Within its pages, specifically chapters 66 through 74, lies the enchanting concept of WuYun (Five Periods), LiuQi (Six Qi), Ten Heavenly Stems, and the Twelve Earthly Branches, illuminating the intricate ways life unfolds on Earth through the rhythm of the seasons and cyclical energy flows.
Our datebook invites anyone to explore this dynamic journey, guiding its users throughout the year as they navigate the transformative shifts of the seasons and the cycles of qi. We envision it as a source of inspiration, offering a wealth of understanding about the energies that shape our universe at any moment. Join us in discovering the magic that lies within!
Enjoy!
