Son-eomneun-nal in March 2027
There are five in the Gregorian month. They're calculated as the days whose lunar date ends in 9 or 0.
| Gregorian | Day | Lunar date | Iljin | Zodiac to avoid | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7th | Sunday | Lunar month 1, day 29 | Eul-yu (乙酉) | Rabbit | Weekend |
| 16th | Tuesday | Lunar month 2, day 9 | Gap-o (甲午) | Rat | Weekday |

Days to avoid for your zodiac animal
Even on a Son-eomneun-nal, a day that clashes head-on with your zodiac animal is left out in date selection. That applies to the animal directly opposite the branch of that day's iljin. This month breaks down like this:
7th → Rabbit · 16th → Rat · 17th → Ox · 26th → Dog · 27th → Pig
If your zodiac animal is listed above, just leave out that date and choose from the other Son-eomneun-nal. This relationship comes round once every 12 days, so the chance of it actually affecting you is low. More details are in What is date selection?
Days that fall on a weekend
Two Son-eomneun-nal fall on a weekend: the 7th (Sun) and 27th (Sat). Demand for moving piles up on those days, so booking early is the safe bet.
Public holidays this month — the 1st, Samiljeol (Independence Movement Day). Moving companies get booked up around holidays, so it's best to avoid the days just before and after.
March's solar terms
In Saju, months are divided not by the calendar but by solar terms. This month has two.
- Gyeongchip (驚蟄, Awakening of Insects)
- March 6 · The solar term when hibernating creatures are said to awaken. In Saju, the Rabbit month (Myowol 卯月) begins
- Chunbun (春分, Spring Equinox)
- March 21 · The day when day and night are the same length
If you're moving in March
Peak season · early spring
Coinciding with the new school year, it's the busiest month of the year. Weekend Son-eomneun-nal can get booked up early with moving companies. Check quotes and whether a ladder truck or elevator can be reserved in advance. Prices and booking deadlines vary by company and region. If you can't be choosy about the date, aiming for a weekday morning is the realistic option.
What kind of year is 2027?
2027 is the Jeongmi (丁未) year, a Year of the Sheep. In Saju, the year changes not on January 1 but at Ipchun (立春, Start of Spring), so people born before early February 2027 use the previous year's stem-branch pair.
This year is leaving Samjae for Pig, Rabbit and Sheep — the last of the three Samjae years. More details are in our Samjae guide. But Samjae is judged from just one character — your zodiac animal — out of eight, so it isn't something to decide a moving date on by itself.
