CHINESE ASTROLOGY<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Chinese astrology is classified based on repeating 12-year cycle, and based on one’s birth details, an animal representing the zodiac is assigned (circle of animals). It is believed that Chinese astrology gives insightful details uncovering career direction, personal traits, health forecast and so forth.<\/p>\n

However, Chinese astrology is a little complicated in the sense that Chinese New Years falls on adifferent day every year, therefore, one has to verify one’s zodiac by comparing one’s birth date with new year.<\/p>\n
