The Chinese Zodiac

Sep 18, 2011 | Views: 5,101

Discover more about yourself according to ancient Chinese tradition

Every individual’s personality has a centered “self” and many layers around it. Each layer has a different size, texture and aura, and when combined, it makes up who the person truly is. The Chinese Zodiac or Chinese Horoscope uses details of your birth to determine your basic personality traits, strengths, weaknesses, your compatibility with other people and even to forecast your future.

Chinese Horoscopes may not have any religious basis. However, if it’s based on 5,000 years worth of human observation, similar trends can be found. It is the culmination of 5,000 years of observation by the ancient Chinese scholars to culminate into the analysis of each sign. Some are very accurate. Observation is the best way to gather information.

It is always interesting and entertaining to read about yourself, your good points and your horoscoped weaknesses. I guess knowing more about yourself will help you to work on what you need to work on. It is nice to know who you can work, partner, and be friends with… also who you would find some conflict with perhaps. Of course getting along and not getting along ultimately relies on you. But it is interesting to see who you have ‘natural’ conflicts with if no efforts were made towards the relationship. It is also interesting to share with friends personality traits of people you would like to understand more about. It is always nice to have a some lead in order to find a beginning in our relations with others.

Daily Horoscope
Chinese astrology is possibly the most developed and the most popular type of astrology in the world. It is not a predictive art like the Western Zodiac, but leans towards the interpretive and philosophical. Select your Chinese Zodiac sign to reveal what lies in store for you.

Elements
The 5 elements – Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, Earth – are an integral part of the Chinese Zodiac which define a universal balance. Every one of us are made up of these elements and are deeply connected to them. A person’s characteristics are determined both by the ruling element of their sign as well as the element of the year of their birth.

Rising Sign
One of factors that affects a person’s characteristics is the time of birth. E.g. A Rooster born in the hour of the Ox will have a different personality compared to a Rooster born in the hour of the Snake. The sign related to the hour of birth is called the Rising Sign, and the individual will experience the effect of the Rising Sign in various degrees.

East Meets West
Another factor which affects a person’s characteristics is the Sun sign. The Sun signs are also known as the Western Zodiac, and they parallel the Chinese Zodiac signs. Combining a Western sign with the Chinese sign will give further insight into an individual’s personality, reinforcing, weakening or diversifying the person’s characteristics.

Buddhist Protectors
When the Chinese Zodiac reached Japan, it became very popular among the Japanese. As Buddhism is also very strong in Japan, the Chinese Zodiac soon became linked to their religion, where 8 Buddhist Protectors became associated with each of the 12 animals of the horoscope, giving their blessings to the people of each sign.

Relationship Compatibility

Besides knowing about the characteristics of your Chinese Zodiac sign, what about when it comes to the people around you? Which other Chinese Zodiac sign best suit yours, when it comes to relationships?

Relationship compatibility within the Chinese Zodiac mostly takes into account the general characteristics for each animal. However, every individual will place their own unique twist on the basic characteristics. That being said, it’s always fun to read about how well (or not well) you match with your partner

Here is a tool for you to test your compatibility with your partner by entering both your Chinese Zodiac sign and your partner’s sign. Have fun reading, and try it out with all your friends!

    Freaking cool, now whenever I meet someone I can come to the blog to profile them top to toe East to West quite literally.

    FB profiles, here we come, birth dates and western zodiacs, make for some interesting combinations in love and war… well less war huh!

  3. Steve Tobias on Sep 20, 2011 at 12:43 am

    Wow very cool. Astrology communities will love this and maybe get some dharma.

  4. JP on Sep 20, 2011 at 2:13 am

    The horoscope reading is amazingly accurate. Fun! Been reading on my friends’ horoscope. Great guidelines to learn how to communicate effectively with my friends.

    Effective communication is important because many problems are created from miscommunication. It’s part of practising dharma to put in the effort to understand another person.

    Now, i can spend hours reading up on myself and friends… hehe.. Thankyou guys for the hardwork.

  12. bengkooi on Sep 22, 2011 at 7:16 am

    Its fantastic how horoscopes can teach people to be better, kinder, less angry, more patient etc…. what a great tool to impart good human values on others!

    The writers really worked super hard on this – researching, comparing notes, writing etc… without the content, would be nothing to talk about! They did it uncomplainingly, lead by Jean Mei, who worked overtime to pull the content together. The only thing we could not write original content for is the Daily Horoscopes… I do hope someday that there will be an astrologer among us who is able to do this pro bono!

  13. beckanelli on Oct 8, 2011 at 9:11 am

    For chhimi rinzin –
    Dear Chhimi rinzin,
    The teachings from Buddha are non-contradictory. Each of us are on different spiritual development level. Based on my understanding and observation, buying meat indirectly increase the demand of meat which mean animals are breed and killed to be sold it to us for our consumaption. If this is not harming and causing suffering to the animals then what else does it mean? Go thru the Rinpoche’s blog post and you will be able to decide what action to take without worrying about which side(view) you stand. Read up and make an informed decision which you can stand firm on :)

    Yesterday many people ordered incredibly beautiful flowers from KECHARA BLOOMS and had it sent to me. It was Losar or Tibetan New Year’s yesterday. I loved all the flowers they have been offered to Vajra Yogini for all of you on my Losar’s day… It was auspicious. Also by mail I received a special dharma postcard with good wishes/prayers from Mongolia from someone I did not know. But the picture on the postcard indicated to me my wishes to bring dharma to more this year will meet with more success. It was really a good omen receiving this card out of the blue yesterday with the special picture on the front… Tsem Rinpoche

    The minute you wake up, Do Gaden Hlagyema (Guru Yoga of Tsongkapa), then 21 migsteyma. Then generate the mind of altruism. Then dedicate. It should not take you more than 10 mins..then carry on as normal for the rest of the day. By doing this, you blessed your whole day and you are ready for the challenges. Should get into the habit of doing this upon waking while your mind is clear…do daily. You will see your mind change over time…Excellent and simple and do not need initiation.

She makes all these sound effects, and it's funny and entertaining. There are many teens who are taking notes. The mood swaps from fun to serious, which is good for learning. She continuously refers back to the blog. Right now she's playing a video on the blog, where Rinpoche is talking about the benefits of butteelamps.

Dear rinpoche,
With regards to your previous message, I guess you were somewhere in Bentong in front of a natural waterfall there.

I just dropped a gift for rinpoche at the Haven. When I saw this huge silver cup and saucer, I couldn't resist getting it for rinpoche. Then, I saw this super-sized bell and I tested it. It made quite a loud sound. I thought that it would be useful for rinpoche to call Sp instead of screaming. ; )

Wow! Wow! Wow! A 33 meter Tsongkapa being built in Kham, Tibet! A friend sent me this picture to rejoice. Huge statues of Tsongkapa in many places in Tibet. Tsongkapa's large image stabilizes a region, brings harmony, and protects the region from natural disasters. TR

I would love to retire from being a dharma teacher. Say goodbye to all the people around me who don't want to change or want the 'easy' way out, let them go and they can go 'find' out the truth...and see for themselves what happens..and I go to the mountains into deep retreat. Merge with my Yidam and become awakened...I wish this so much. Tsem Rinpoche

Why doesn't the protector let me retire into a nice house in the forest. Why isn't that I can never get what I want for once. Why can't I go into retreat in this house. Why do I always get pushed to do more and more? So much work n disappointments to bring dharma to others. Tsem Rinpoche

Animals and imprints:

So many birds and animals to feed in bentong when we have KWPC there in forest! Exciting. 

I will set up Buddhas all over the forest to bless animals and feed them daily!! So they take rebirth as powerful dharma teachers to spread dharma. When the animals see and eat near the Buddha statues (due to our prayers) they plant seeds to become Dharma teachers and practitioners. We must feed lots of animals tirelessly with mantras blown on their food and or put statues for them. Important to feed animals. 
Share with others to put Buddhas in carports and always feed birds n animals. Good practice. Tsem Rinpoche

You know since very young, for better or worse, I always did the things others told me not to do. I wasn't really good at following the rules. Even now with how I share dharma n my practice, I just do it the way I think it should be done but I do it sincerely. Not what others tell me what I can n can't do. Tsem Rinpoche
