Predict Your Future?

Predict Your Future

Astrology, fortune tellers and horoscopes are part of our daily lives. Computers and mobile phones opened new doors for the so-called mediums, fortune tellers, psychics and others. But at the end of the day it is all about whether or not you believe in it.

The introduction of the computer has helped astrology as well. Most people will relate to one type of astrology, let’s say Western, but they also would like to know what their Chinese zodiac predictions are. It is very complicated to figure that out without the help from some guru or the computer. Now you can just go to a website and type in your day, month and year of birth and there you have it.

Chinese AstrologyChinese astrology

Chinese astrology is said to be the oldest horoscope system in the world. The foundation of Chinese astrology is Yin and Yang, the 12 animals and the five elements. The consideration of Yin and Yang is a very great influence upon this subject, Yin being passive, female and receptive while Yang is aggressive, male and exploratory. Chinese Astrology is concerned with nature and its traits, the signs progress year by year whereas Western Astrology cycles monthly. Chinese astrology and the order of the 12 animals that define it is said to have been derived from a legend about the Buddha. According to ancient scripts, Buddha realized that the Chinese nation needed reorganization.

So on the occasion of the Chinese New Year, Buddha called upon the entire animal kingdom for a meeting. But only 12 animals (the rat, buffalo, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and boar) showed up for this meeting. Buddha then honoured them in the order of their arrival by endowing upon them each with a year of their own.
