Astrology traditions

Chinese astrology

Chinese astrology encompasses several traditions and systems developed in China for understanding time, character, relationships and cycles of change.

Chinese astrology describes a broad family of astrological traditions developed in China.

These traditions use systems, cycles and concepts that differ significantly from those found in Western astrology and Indian astrology.

What is Chinese astrology?

Chinese astrology includes several different methods rather than a single uniform system.

Approaches may draw on traditional calendars, cyclical patterns, the Chinese zodiac and other concepts developed within Chinese cosmology.

Different practitioners may therefore mean somewhat different things when they describe their work as Chinese astrology.

  • The horoscope is for me the DNA of life. It can provide in depth insights about your life and its potentials. It provide insight over how to improve and utilize what qualities you have at your disposal. Astrology also presents an thorough guide to the cycles and timings of your life. The horoscope and its timing represent the music of life. How you dance to it is up to you. There are very few tools as accurate and useful for time planning and crisis management. In a crisis it can reveal profound perceptions about how you got there, how to proceed from there and how long it will take! In doing a chart for a person, I always study the implications of the previous 10 years and the ten years ahead.
