Ehou

Patches Date and Time to add methods and convert to Japanese Ehou direction.

Ehou is the lucky direction of the year which is determined every year by the Celestial stems. It is customary in Japan at Setsubun (celebrated on Feb 3) to eat a special sushi roll in silence facing the "Ehou" direction for good fortune.

Have a great Setsubun!
