The Rokuyo is a six-day cycle which applies to the days of the Japanese calendar (六曜 - literally "six day" Roku=six yo=day). Each day has an associated fortune to indicate whether there will be good luck or bad on that particular day.[1][2] Calendars will sometimes include the rokuyo in fine print underneath each date. In the show and manga Shiki, dates are followed by the Rokuyo designation for that day.

  • Senshou - Good luck in the morning, bad luck after noon
  • Tomobiki - Good luck all day, except at noon
  • Senbu (or Senpu) - Bad luck in the morning, good luck after noon
  • Butsumetsu - Unlucky all day. It's the day Buddha died
  • Taian - Lucky all day. Day of great peace
  • Shakku - Bad luck all day, except at noon
