This school is based on 12 animal symbols and five elements: fire, earth, water, wood and metal. Animal signs are a major aspect of Chinese astrology, and they are not based on the arrangement of stars and date of birth as in Western astrology. According to legend, 12 animals (rat, bull, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, pig) visited Buddha, and in gratitude he dedicated each year to them. The years were distributed in the order in which the animals came. The basis of the Chinese calendar is the rotation of the moon.
The interpretation of the Chinese horoscope is as similar as possible to the Western horoscope, and conclusions can also be drawn from it:
- about a person’s personality;
- psycho-emotional compatibility with other people;
- about the right areas of activity and the best time for new beginnings.
Regardless of which astrologer you turn to, it must be an experienced specialist. Only a professional will be able to describe a complete picture of your habits, tastes, hobbies, environment and possible life changes.
Remember, the choice is still yours. The planets are indicating future events, but you have the right not to act on them. A good astrologer will show you the reason for the situation and what you can do to improve it, but his words are only recommendations.
