Editorial Review: Product Description: Chinese astrology predates its Western cousin by millennia, and this comprehensive text traces its history from the earliest records to the present, and explains the founding principles of the art. In-depth analysis offers insight on all the essential aspects: its foundation in astronomical observation, its development in historical context, and the methods used in interpreting the portents. There are also comprehensive studies of popular concepts such as Feng Shui, the Chinese calendar, and divination plates. The inclusion of actual Chinese horoscopes from different periods provides an intimate, unmediated look into this ancient form of divination. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - For experts only...For expert, by expert. If you're not an expert, you will have a tough time understanding a word of this book. Good luck. And then some. Rating: - Informed and then someComprehensive says it all. Very pleased with the ease of movement in finding content information since so much is given. A great working tool. Rating: - Wow! It definitely ain't no 12 animal signs!There's a lot of information in this book (a little bit too much at times). It's definitely not for beginners but for those die-hard Chinese astrologers. Awesome read and still getting my head around it. The only change that could be applied is the format... Their could be more illustrations for those who more visually oriented. |
