Do I need to know Kyusei Kigaku?

No. Enter your birthday once and the app does the rest.

Should I always follow the lucky direction?

No. Use it as a tie-breaker. Real weather, health, and schedule come first.

Is there an iPhone version?

Currently Android only. iOS is in planning.

Yes. Core features are free. Ads are shown.

What if there is nothing in that direction?

Use 'roughly that direction' — even taking a different exit at the station is enough mood reset.

Do I need to go out daily?

No. The app calculates daily but you can skip days freely.

HoshiNeko — Complete Guide

Name: HoshiNeko
Availability: InStock

When the day is open and you have no plans, choosing a direction is a low-effort way to actually leave the house and try a new spot.

What is this app?

HoshiNeko is a casual outing app based on Kyusei Kigaku astrology. It shows today's lucky direction for you, then helps you find cafes, parks, shrines, or hot springs in that direction on a map.

Common situations to use it

Pick a day-off destination
When nothing is planned, locking a direction first turns 'I do not know' into 'OK, west today.'
Break a walking-route rut
If you always walk east, taking a west turn once a week feels like a tiny vacation.
Casual dates and friend outings
'Let us pick by direction' is a fun ice-breaker for restaurant decisions.
Free time on a trip
On a business trip with one free hour, you can quickly see what is in the lucky direction.
Lucky walks for mood reset
If you enjoy daily fortune as light entertainment, this fits naturally into a walk routine.

How to use (3 steps)

1
Enter your birthday
Once at setup. The app uses it to compute your daily lucky direction.
2
Check today's direction and map
Open the app to see your direction. Glance at the map for nearby spots in that direction.
3
Pick one place that is realistic
From cafes, parks, shrines, hot springs, pick one that fits today's energy and time.

A note from the developer

I built this so deciding 'where today?' takes 30 seconds rather than disappearing into a feed. Treat the direction as a friendly excuse, not an order.
