Chinese astrology's historical background
Chinese astrology is undoubtedly the oldest coherent method of
divination in the world — it came into existence some seventeen
centuries before the Bible. It has influenced — and even regulated
— the lives of countless generations in the Far East from time
immemorial. Contrary to what one might think, the progress of
modern science in all fields has not tarnished its image as an
esteemed guide to human destiny and self-discovery. In fact, the
East Asians are no longer the only persons to have recourse to
Chinese astrology; more and more people in the industrialized,
rationalistic Western world, and especially in the United States,
are getting awakened to and interested in this system of fortune-telling
which took root in one of the most prestigious known civilizations.
The foremost origins of Chinese astrology are shrouded in the
haze of the ancient times. No one is able to tell exactly when
and under what conditions this method of divination came into
use. It is known however that Chinese astrology under one form
or another had been widely practiced in the Orient since the 40th
century BC and especially since the times of the Chinese Emperors
Fu Hsi (2953-2838 BC) and Shen Nung (born in the 28th century
BC).
