If you have an interest in horoscopes and want to attempt to read the stars yourself, there are numerous astrology books available on the market. There are so many books that detail specific disciplines, beliefs and reading methods, that it can be hard to select a book that’s just right for you. In this article, we’ll suggest a few that can help you to read the stars
When learning about astrology, it’s helpful to have one very detailed book to use as a reference. However, there are many good books on specific types of astrology practices, yet it’s difficult to find a high quality book that covers all aspects. A good tome for the novice astrologer should have interpretations that are written in simple language and provides a lot of information about relationships. It should also have information on advanced astrology for when you are ready to explore more complicated theories and practices. Here are three good overall books that offer an introduction to the astrology craze.
If you’re looking for astrology books with concise information and great images, “Parker’s Astrology” by Julia & Derek Parker is one good choice. It begins with the history of astrology, provides an overview of the solar system and introduces the foundational concepts. There’s a user-friendly planetary aspect finder in the back and if you’d like to find out more about yourself, the book has a section the teaches you how to cast your own birth chart.
“The Only Astrology Book You’ll Ever Need” by Joanna Martinet Wool folk lives up to its title. This book has in-depth profiles of all the Sun signs, but explores other planets as well. While the book focuses on love and romance, it also covers history, myth and birth chart interpretation. Most importantly, it is written in very clear, easy to understand language. Another great book, “Astrology for Yourself”, is both an introduction to astrology and a workbook for understanding your own birth chart. This book starts at the beginning and expertly guides you toward a full understanding of your birth chart. The authors taught astrology and know how to introduce the topic step-by-step. For someone looking to explore their own interpretations, this book is ideal.
Cyberspace has become an effective alternative to traditional astrology books. The Internet has thousands of websites dedicated to astrology. Whether you’re looking for your daily horoscope or in depth information on the Chinese Zodiac or Indian astrology, you can find it online. It seems that more and more people are trying to get in touch with the spiritual side of their nature, and the web is responding to the demand.
I don’t like telling people my boyfriend is a pig, but he is, and he can’t deny it! I am of course the the fastest of all the Chinese astrol0gy signs and I have a rabbit foot to prove it! My boyfriend and I, we don’t always see eye to eye. I guess that goes without saying for quite a few of us. When things get a little tense, I always find it interesting for us to pull out our astrology charts to see where we are heading. Perhaps you are also looking, and searching to see which Chinese Astrological Signs Make Good Love Matches?
You never know what kind of an animal you might end up with!
Chinese Astrology is a mix of the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements of Fire, Metal, Water, Wood, and Earth. You can use it to find love matches with the twelve Chinese Zodiac signs. The signs are the Rat, Cow, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. These are used in Love Chinese Astrology.
Each animal in the Astrology chart represents a 12 year span and are the attributes that the Chinese believe are in every animal. The animals are believed to have been chosen by Buddha. Chinese Astrology offers its own kind of horoscopes. Many different kinds of love guides exist. From love compatibility all the way to soul mate reports, Chinese astrology has an answer to find any kind of love.
The Chinese Zodiac is used in Chinese Astrology to match up compatible signs. The Astrology uses your exact birth date and the exact date of the person you are trying to see if you are compatible with. The chart then matches up whatever kind of Zodiac sign you matched with and compares the two. It tells you if you are meant to be together, be just friends, or maybe just stay away from one another.
The animals rule in ranking order for twelve years then start over. The pattern began again in 2008 with Rat followed by Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. So, if you were born in February or after of 1996 then you are a Rat. Each animal is placed in an affinity group and an affinity pair. The affinity group is divided into four groups and they are listed as follows: Ox, Snake, and Rooster; Tiger, Horse, and Dog; Rat, Dragon, and Monkey; and Rabbit, Goat, and Pig. There are six affinity pairs: Rat and Ox, Tiger and Pig; Rabbit and Dog; Dragon and Rooster; Snake and Monkey; and Horse and Goat. Your most compatible match is found in the affinity groups and your second most compatible is your affinity pair.
Of course with every compatible match there is also an incompatible match. These are the clashing signs. These signs are divided into six pairs. These consist of the Rat and Horse; Ox and Goat; Tiger and Monkey; Rabbit and Rooster; Dragon and Dog; and Snake and Pig. So, when trying to avoid someone of little astrology compatibility you might want to consider this. The signs not listed in either group together are neither compatible or incompatible. The best way to see if this would be a match for you is to find out about their personality type and decide from that point.
When looking into the love Chinese Astrology this is fun to take into account. The signs are based on personality traits, but it is not always accurate. Even people with clashing signs have ended up being very compatible couples. This is a fun way to find out a side of the personality of the person you are interested in.
You probably did not know it but 2008 is the Year of the Rat. The timeline of the Rat comes once every twelve years. There are eleven other animal zodiac signs that occur once a year as well in Chinese horoscopes. It is a far different cycle than the one Americans use. It all has to do with ancient mythology and about a king bringing together twelve animals and assigning them a specific year, which they would rule. Some feel it is the best astrology to be used, yet regardless of your personal feelings, it never hurts to learn more.
Chinese horoscopes differ from Western horoscopes in several ways. Take for example the zodiac sign Libra in the Western horoscope. It is for one month. But, as an example, the Rat is for one entire year. A Chinese zodiac sign is also given an element according to the year in which it falls. There are five elements in all.
Each Chinese zodiac sign occurs once in a rotation of twelve years. So that means, by the time an individual sign, say for example the Rat, is through its entire elemental cycle it has reached sixty years. Then the cycle starts over again in a never ending pattern of the Great Solar Cycle. It can be very confusing, so do not worry overly about it. Most people only want to know the best astrology sign for their work day or their romantic interest.
It is important to know the animals involved in the Chinese horoscope, as well as their order. It starts off with the Rat. The following animals, in order are: Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Ram (or Sheep), Monkey, Dog and the Pig. Each zodiac sign is given a spot in the constellations and is religiously followed by some individuals. It is a way of life that many practice religiously by looking up their horoscope daily.
