What is Chinese Astrology?

Chinese Astrology is derived from the Zi Wei Dou Shu. This is the study of destiny and one of the five arts of Chinese metaphysics. It is a method of Chinese Astrology based on calculations using one's birth time and location of birth. The specific reading we do provides you with some general characteristics to make sure this is the right chart(not all of them have to be right, just the majority) and then looks at the 5 Major Palaces or areas of your life. These Palaces are: your Ming (destiny or personality), Career, Money, Health, and Spouse.

​

Each of these palaces have three sections we review: Lifetime (which never changes), 10-Year (which changes every 10 years), and 1-year(which changes annually). In each of these sections there will be numbered stars that we look at. There are 114 stars, with the 14 Major Stars being the most influential and some additional ones. There are also Reflective Stars which provide more insight for that Palace or area of life.
