Chinese astrology is an ancient art, which uses the time of birth, including the year, month, day and time, to reveal insights into a person's personality traits, lifestyle health, career direction, and compatibility with others. Although the exact origin of the system is unknown, Chinese astrology has guided the Chinese for over five thousand years and has a profound influence on our lives.
The Chinese system of zodiac is actually based on a ten year Sun-Moon cycle that conforms to the ancient Chinese agricultural calendar. The cycle is divided into the five elements: Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal as well as twelve animals, which represent each year. The system is influenced by Yin (female) and Yang (male) cosmic force, which is said to be an interpretation of universal harmony and balance.
For centuries, Chinese astrology has been deeply rooted in Chinese culture. When you ask someone for their age, they will most likely tell you their zodiac sign instead of their exact age. It is believed that one's sign has significant influence over one's personality and future. Some might question if this means that all the millions of people born in the same year will share the same personality traits? Although this may seem almost impossible, many people have actually recognized many shared personality traits among friends of the same sign. Nevertheless, Chinese astrology is more compicated than the twelve zodiac signs, it is determined not only by the year you were born, but also by the hour of birth, Yin/Yang and the five elements.
In fact, Chinese astrology can be very detailed and specific if you want an accurate prediction. Even today, most Chnese people still rely on Chinese astrology as a reference for decisions about compatibilities, marriage, career, and personality. |
