Kurzbeschreibung
The Chinese have practised astrology for many thousands of years- they compiled a systematic method of observing and interpreting the heavens long before contact with the Western world was made. Derek Walters traces the history of Chinese astrology from its earliest records to the present and explains the principles on which it is founded. He examines its foundation in astronomical observation, its historical context and methods used for interpreting the portents. Actual Chinese horoscopes from different periods bring the subject to life. An important feature of this new edition is the inclusion of the Tzu Wei system which forms the basis for the latest computerized Chinese horoscopes.

Einleitungssatz
If the efficacy of Chinese Astrology needed any vindication, then there is the case that when I began writing this book more than twenty years ago, I was determined that it should receive its first publication in 1984, since that year, being the first year of the coming sixty-year Chinese calendar cycle, would be an auspicious one.

Wow! It definitely ain't no 12 animal signs!
1. März 2007
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.

Primarly of academic use
11. September 2010
This book is full of evidence collected from the author and information about the history and what is written in some ancient Chinese texts. However, if you are looking for practical knowledge in order to actually cast horoscopes or do fate or feng shui predictions, then this is not the book for you. Information is somewhat terse and examples are not given. There isn't enough to work here unless you are already very familiar with the subject matter at hand (in which case you may not even need this book) in order to use on a practical level.
What you will find here is some history, a few examples of some obscure methods in which the Chinese may have cast their horoscopes during certain periods and certain dynasties, and a lot of tables and figures with Chinese characters. A good book if you are a researcher or an academic.
