中国人办事喜欢从黄历上挑个吉利的日子,也就是我们说的黄道吉日。其实这种通过立法指导人们生活的习俗并非我国独有,古埃及也有他们的历法,每年当中不吉利的日子都会被标注出来,这些日子就是Egyptian Days。

Egyptian Days, also called Dismal Days, refer to days of the year that signify bad luck or ill omen.
Egyptian Days(或Dismal Days)指一年当中代表厄运或凶兆的那些日子,字面意思可称之为“埃及日”,也就是“不吉利的日子”。
Behind the concept of Egyptian days lies the wider discipline of astrology. Ancient scholars believed that the position of the planets and hence the dates have a great influence on human lives.
“埃及日”背后有宽泛的天文学理论作为支撑。古代的学者认为,各个天体的位置及其反应在日历上的某个日子会对人类生活产生巨大的影响。
The Egyptian Days are the following: January 1 and 25, February 4 and 26, March 1 and 28, April 10 and 20, May 3 and 25, June 10 and 16, July 13 and 22, August 1 and 30, September 3 and 21, October 3 and 22, November 5 and 28, and December 7 and 22.
在“埃及日”理论中,一年中不吉利的日子有1月1日和25日,2月4日和6日,3月1日和28日,4月10日和20日,5月3日和25日,6月10日和16日,7月13日和22日,8月1日和30日,9月3日和21日,10月3日和22日,11月5日和28日,12月7日和22日。
The above days were considered inauspicious for any new ventures. In olden days, doctors restrained themselves from performing surgeries and major treatments on these days. Different days have different degrees of bad luck. Some of them were partly good and partly evil, while others were considered totally disastrous. The last Monday in April, the second Monday of August, and the third Monday of December seem to be specially unlucky.
以上这些日子不宜开动任何新项目。在古代,医生不会在这些日子做手术或实施重要的治疗行为。不同的日子厄运指数也会不同。有些日子可能半好半坏,有些可能就是极凶日。4月的最后一个周一,8月第二个周一以及12月第三个周一被认为是尤其凶险的日子。
Egyptian Days are not followed only in Egypt. The dates may vary in different countries, but the belief has the common base, that is, astrology. (Source: paranormal-encyclopedia)
