A central foundation of Chinese astrology is the concept of Yin and
Yang, which expresses the balanced wholeness of two opposing but
complementary forces.
CHAKRA is a Sanskrit word that means “wheel.” Those who can see them describe chakras as spinning wheels of light that glow and spread outwards. The magnificence of the radiating colours reflects the strength of a person’s inner chi, the clarity of one’s thoughts and the purity of one’s attitudes.
Most
Chinese are familiar with the Chinese lunar calendar, which keeps track
of the movements of the moon, in particular the new moon and full moon
days.
I wanted to share with you the story about the "sign" I got on the way
back from Chinatown last weekend. We were sitting in a restaurant in
Chinatown discussing the name for my Feng Shui site with a couple of
friends...
The Chinese Zodiac wheel has 12 animals in their order of
appearance in the Chinese calendar, starting with the rat and followed
by the ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster,
dog and boar.
Most people are only familiar with the animal signs associated with
their year of birth. Authentic Chinese Astrology moves way beyond what
is generally understood by the reading in the animal year which is only
the tip of the iceberg of what we actually call, Chinese Astrology.
OK, this isn't exactly "Chinese" astrology, but it makes a nice
change, and besides, whoever would have thought that each of us
represented a species of tree ???
