What Does "Earthwork" Mean in the Feng Shui Fortune Calendar?
In Chinese tradition the earth is alive, and digging it disturbs its energy. So earthwork is done on days when it is safest. Interestingly, Open and Establish are unfavourable here: the earth should not be "opened" or "fixed" at an unlucky moment.
