Synopsis
The purpose of Chinese astrology is to enhance self-awareness, revealing to us a wider scope of life choices, and the means to foster more positive and sensitive attitudes toward the real world in which we live and hope to thrive. The product of over two millennia of development and refinement, its twelve animal signs are closely correlated with, and offer insight into, all aspects of our physical environment and psychological being. Special features of Kwan Lau's work are a Chinese astrological calendar extending to the year 2050 (essential for accurate interpretation and unavailable in any other text), and a simplified I Ching coin divination system. Based on ancient texts, this system offers a quick and convenient method for gleaning answers to specific questions, complementing the broader trends and portents presented in the main text. Together, these two approaches comprise a fascinating and illuminating guide to life.
