How to Interpret Chinese Astrology Charts

Interpret Chinese Astrology Charts

• 1

  Start understanding a Chinese astrology chart by learning the meaning of the 12 houses. Each house represents one aspect of your life. Most of the houses are clearly defined, relating to such areas as Health, Children and Wealth. The Life Palace represents the personality and foretells a person's destiny.

  Study the stars. Depending on the discipline of thought, there are between 99 and 115 stars used on Chinese astrology charts, each representing some facet of your life. These stars are mathematical symbols that represent different energies that affect your life experience.

• 3

  Look for patterns. Often the patterns created are more important than individual stars on the chart.

• 4

  Interpret a Chinese astrology chart with plenty of intuition. Compare patterns and groupings. Look at how the stars fall in corresponding houses. Chinese astrology leaves more room to meditate on the results than traditional Western astrology does.
