入伙 (moving into a brand-new home) and 移徙 (moving into a resale home) are both moving-house date questions, but they describe different situations. The date should match the event you are actually performing: first occupation of a new space, or relocation into a home with prior occupancy.
In English, both often get flattened into "moving house." That is convenient for a calendar label, but it hides the first decision a date-selection method needs: what is this date for?
Auspio's current app exposes one moving category, shown as Moving in English and 搬家 in Chinese. Inside that category, the source applies moving-specific checks for the household head, spouse, house facing, Day Officers, zodiac relationships, element harmony, lunar-month cautions, and personal affinity. The broader calculation method is documented on How Auspio Calculates Your Dates.
This article is about the event vocabulary before the calculation. It does not claim Auspio currently ships separate 入伙 and 移徙 modes; the source shows a single moving event type.
入伙 is about first occupation
入伙 is the word usually used when a household moves into a brand-new home. In a Singapore context, this often maps naturally to a new flat, new condominium unit, or newly completed home.
The practical emphasis is the threshold: a new household begins occupying a space that has not been lived in by that household before. The date is not merely about transporting boxes. It marks the first use of the home as a lived-in place.
That is why 入伙 content often overlaps with key collection, renovation completion, first entry, and move-in ceremony questions. Those may happen on different days in real life, so the event label matters. A key-collection appointment is not automatically the same as the date your household begins living there.
Auspio's current moving-house source uses the term 入宅 in comments and user-facing warnings for the house-facing taboo layer. That is close in meaning to moving into or occupying a residence, and the app treats it as part of the broader moving-house calculation.
移徙 is about relocation
移徙 is the term the roadmap uses for moving into a resale home. The focus is different: the household is relocating into an existing lived space, not beginning the first occupation of a newly completed home.
That does not make it less important. It changes the shape of the question. A resale move may involve handover, cleaning, minor works, tenancy dates, existing furniture, previous occupants, and a more practical moving schedule. The date still needs to fit the household and the event, but the event is not identical to first occupation.
Because Auspio's current implementation groups this under Moving / 搬家, the article should not pretend there is a separate resale-home algorithm in the app. What can be verified from the source is narrower: moving-house scoring is personalized to the household and property data that the app actually collects.
Why the label changes the date question
The label changes the date question because date selection is activity-specific. A good date for one kind of action is not automatically the best date for another.
Auspio's source reflects that principle at the Day Officer layer. Each Day Officer has a different rating by event type. For the current Moving category, 建 (Establish), 定 (Stable), 成 (Success), and 开 (Open) are treated favorably, while 破 (Destruction), 危 (Danger), and 闭 (Close) are treated negatively.
That is not a prediction that one day will make a move succeed or fail. It means the Day Officer layer classifies the day according to the traditional activity mode Auspio implements.
The same logic is why renovation-start timing should not be collapsed into move-in timing. 动土 (construction or renovation-start work) is a different event type in the app from Moving / 搬家, with its own Day Officer ratings. The calendar question should follow the actual action.
What Auspio checks for a moving date
For a moving-house search, Auspio's source does not average every family member equally.
The moving-specific model assigns household roles. The owner is primary, the spouse can be secondary, and elders or children are not checked in the same way. The code comments state the reason plainly: real 入宅 / 搬家 date-selection practice keys the date off the household head, with the spouse secondary.
That affects the score. In the moving path, Auspio checks whether the day's branch clashes with the household owner's zodiac; if it does, the date can be excluded rather than merely penalized. For other participant-specific layers, the app scores against the owner and optional spouse instead of the full participant list.
Auspio also checks the saved house facing when a house is supplied. If that facing falls within the year's 三煞 / 太岁 (Three Sha / Tai Sui) direction taboo, the moving score is reduced and the app records a warning. The source describes that check as moving-only.
The scoring is personal, not generic
The moving category is one input. The household's charts are another.
Auspio's composite day score combines Day Officer, zodiac compatibility, element harmony, lunar-month cautions, and personal affinity. In the current source, those weights are 35% Day Officer, 25% zodiac compatibility, 15% element harmony, 10% lunar month, and 15% personal affinity, with moving-specific adjustments layered on top.
That is the pillar-2 point: the same calendar date does not mean the same thing for every household. A day can have a strong general moving signal and still clash with the household head. Another day can look less obvious from the almanac label but fit the household more cleanly.
This is why a generic list of moving dates is only the beginning of the question. It can tell you which days look broadly usable. It cannot know whether the day fits your household head, your spouse, your house facing, or the exact event you are scheduling.
A practical way to choose the right event
Before looking for a date, write down the exact action you are timing.
If it is the first day your household formally occupies a brand-new home, think 入伙. If it is relocation into a resale home, think 移徙. If it is hacking, drilling, or renovation commencement, think 动土 rather than move-in. If it is only collecting keys, that is an administrative appointment unless you deliberately treat it as the symbolic start.
That clarity matters because the chosen date becomes easier to interpret. You are no longer asking for a vague "good day." You are asking whether this day supports this household doing this action.
Auspio can help with the current Moving / 搬家 category, but the source does not yet verify separate in-app modes for 入伙 and 移徙. Until that split exists in the product, the honest wording is: use the distinction to clarify the event, then read the moving-house result through the household and property layers Auspio actually computes.
Is 入伙 the same as 搬家?
Not exactly. 入伙 points to occupying a home, especially a brand-new one; 搬家 is the broader everyday word for moving house. Auspio's current app uses 搬家 / Moving as the shipped event category.
Is 移徙 already a separate Auspio event type?
No. The current source shows one moving event type, not separate public event types for 入伙 and 移徙. The distinction is still useful because it tells you what life event you are actually trying to time.
Should renovation and move-in use the same date?
Not automatically. Auspio's app source treats construction / 动土 and moving / 搬家 as different event categories, with different Day Officer ratings and different moving-specific checks.
Does a good moving date guarantee a good outcome?
No. Auspio reports how the selected method reads a date: the Day Officer, household zodiac checks, element relationship, lunar-month cautions, personal affinity, and house-facing warning where relevant. It does not promise what will happen after the move.
