While Rokuyō is quite unique in the mystical world of occultism, this page looks at Rokuyō's tenuous link with other pseudoscientific systems.

These correlations show the mapping coherently without pretending equivalence.
Regarding lunar phases, Rokuyō is derived from the traditional lunisolar calendar, so each of its six energies loosely echoes typical waxing/waning emotional or ritual qualities.
The Japanese zodiac doesn't tie specific Rokuyō days to specific animals, but astrologers use the 12-animal cycle as an energy wheel. The active, quick or social signs (Mouse, Horse, Dragon) align with favourable days. In contrast, the heavy or inward signs (Sheep, Cow) align with cautious or low-energy days.
Similarly, the Western astrology themes are archetypal energies, not zodiac sign assignments. Aries is associated with action, Libra with social harmony, Saturn with restriction, Jupiter with opportunity, and Mars with conflict.
As with lunar phases and astrology, numerological interpretations describe the essence of a person, their qualities such as creativity, stability, leadership, adventure, compassion, etc. In contrast, Rokuyō describes the mood or character of a day, and whether it’s good or bad for certain activities.
The numerological vibration of 1 is commonly associated with initiation, leadership and action — human traits that we have been unable to reconcile with the traditionally attributed “mood” of Senshō.
If Senshō is treated as a personal name, standard numerological analysis yields the following results:
However, Senshō is known to have several aliases, including Senshin, Sen'nin, Senkachi, Sakigachi and Sakikachi. It is also possible that additional names for this Rokuyō day have been lost to history. Each alias produces a distinct numerological profile, thereby undermining the consistency of any single interpretation.
Consequently, any attempt to reconcile a personal-name-based numerological analysis with the attributed mood of a calendrical day is methodologically unsound, unless supported by a clear account of the criteria by which Senshō was assigned a numerological vibration of 1.
In the absence of such documentation, this alignment must be understood as the product of an unknown individual, operating within an unknown numerological system, at an indeterminate time and place in the past.
The numerological vibration of 3 is commonly associated with social connections, communication and creativity — human traits that we have been unable to reconcile with the traditionally attributed “mood” of Tomobiki.
If Tomobiki is treated as a personal name, standard numerological analysis yields the following results:
However, Tomobiki is known to have several aliases, including Kyūin. It is also possible that additional names for this Rokuyō day have been lost to history. Each alias produces a distinct numerological profile, thereby undermining the consistency of any single interpretation.
Consequently, any attempt to reconcile a personal-name-based numerological analysis with the attributed mood of a calendrical day is methodologically unsound, unless supported by a clear account of the criteria by which Tomobiki was assigned a numerological vibration of 3.
In the absence of such documentation, this alignment must be understood as the product of an unknown individual, operating within an unknown numerological system, at an indeterminate time and place in the past.
The numerological vibration of 4 is commonly associated with stability but also caution; good for reflection, planning or low-risk tasks — human traits that we have been unable to reconcile with the traditionally attributed “mood” of Sakimake.
If Sakimake is treated as a personal name, standard numerological analysis yields the following results:
However, Sakimake is known to have several aliases, including Senmake, Senbu, Senpu, depending on regional pronunciation. It is also possible that additional names for this Rokuyō day have been lost to history. Each alias produces a distinct numerological profile, thereby undermining the consistency of any single interpretation.
Consequently, any attempt to reconcile a personal-name-based numerological analysis with the attributed mood of a calendrical day is methodologically unsound, unless supported by a clear account of the criteria by which Sakimake was assigned a numerological vibration of 4.
In the absence of such documentation, this alignment must be understood as the product of an unknown individual, operating within an unknown numerological system, at an indeterminate time and place in the past.
The numerological vibration of 6 is commonly associated with responsibility, care, completion and reflection — human traits that we have been unable to reconcile with the traditionally attributed “mood” of Butsumetsu.
If Butsumetsu is treated as a personal name, standard numerological analysis yields the following results:
However, Butsumetsu is known to have at least one aliases, Kyōmetsu, an older name emphasizing inauspiciousness. It is also possible that additional names for this Rokuyō day have been lost to history. Each alias produces a distinct numerological profile, thereby undermining the consistency of any single interpretation.
Consequently, any attempt to reconcile a personal-name-based numerological analysis with the attributed mood of a calendrical day is methodologically unsound, unless supported by a clear account of the criteria by which Butsumetsu was assigned a numerological vibration of 6.
In the absence of such documentation, this alignment must be understood as the product of an unknown individual, operating within an unknown numerological system, at an indeterminate time and place in the past.
The numerological vibration of 8 is commonly associated with prosperity, growth and infinity — — human traits that we have been unable to reconcile with the traditionally attributed “mood” of Taian.
If Taian is treated as a personal name, standard numerological analysis yields the following results:
However, Taian is known to have at least one aliases, Daian. The meaning is the same as Taian, but the spelling yields a different result. It is also possible that additional names for this Rokuyō day have been lost to history. Each alias produces a distinct numerological profile, thereby undermining the consistency of any single interpretation.
Consequently, any attempt to reconcile a personal-name-based numerological analysis with the attributed mood of a calendrical day is methodologically unsound, unless supported by a clear account of the criteria by which Taian was assigned a numerological vibration of 8.
In the absence of such documentation, this alignment must be understood as the product of an unknown individual, operating within an unknown numerological system, at an indeterminate time and place in the past.
The numerological vibration of 7 is commonly associated as being mystical, spiritual; sometimes associated with caution or introspection — human traits that we have been unable to reconcile with the traditionally attributed “mood” of Shakku.
If Shakku is treated as a personal name, standard numerological analysis yields the following results:
However, Shakku is known to have several aliases, including Akakuchi, Sekiguchi, Shakkan'yō, Shakkō and Jakkō. It is also possible that additional names for this Rokuyō day have been lost to history. Each alias produces a distinct numerological profile, thereby undermining the consistency of any single interpretation.
Consequently, any attempt to reconcile a personal-name-based numerological analysis with the attributed mood of a calendrical day is methodologically unsound, unless supported by a clear account of the criteria by which Shakku was assigned a numerological vibration of 7.
In the absence of such documentation, this alignment must be understood as the product of an unknown individual, operating within an unknown numerological system, at an indeterminate time and place in the past.
