Chinese Astrology Forecast for 2008

One form of Chinese astrology is BaZi (8 characters), also known as Four Pillars. A BaZi chart is made up of a Year, Month, Day and Hour Pillar; read from right to left. Each Pillar consists of a Heavenly Stem and an Earthly Branch. The Earthly Branch is depicted as one of the 12 Chinese zodiac animals. Whilst the Heavenly Stem is an element which influences the animal sign. This year starting February the 4th is the Year of the Earth Rat or Wu Zi.
There hasn’t been another Earth Rat year since 1948.
Astrology using only the animal year sign, is a very simplified form of a reading. It represents only 12.5% of a person’s total 8 character Bazi chart. However it is still immensely popular so I have endeavored to offer you a guide of the coming year based only on the animal year sign. To acquire a more accurate forecast you must seek out a professional astrology consultant.
There is often some confusion with regard to which animal sign a person falls under, especially for those who are born close to Chinese New Year. If you are uncertain as to the exact Chinese zodiac sign that you are, you are welcome to email me via this website with your date of birth and time if known and I will reply with your animal sign and element. Happy New Year wishes to all.
