Why Thai people care about the day they were born
In Thailand, the day of the week you were born on matters more than your star sign. Each day has a color and a guardian planet. You'll see it on Buddha images for each weekday at temples, and many Thai people wear their birthday color on special days.
People born on Wednesday are split in two: born before 6 p.m. (day) or after 6 p.m. (night, ruled by Rahu, color grey or black).
Don't know which day you were born?
Thai days start at sunrise in traditional astrology, so someone born at 3 a.m. may count as the day before. Check with a calendar for your birth date, or use our Thai tool.
