Case 25 of 26

Luck direction and nearby Jie

Near Jie: two hours before Jingzhe

A short interval to the next Jie produces a near-immediate start receipt.

Boundary question

Does the start calculation preserve the exact nearby Jie and interval direction?

The corrected time is shortly before Jingzhe, so forward sequence references Jingzhe and starts on March 16, 2026 rather than years later.
