Do you agree with the chinese zodiac (snake, ox...) more so than the western zodiac (taurus, aries...)?

Question

Just random and I'm curious, but I find the chinese zodiac to be WAY MORE accurate than the western zodiac. Even down to the personality traits and whatnot, and the daily horoscope as well. I myself would be a scorpio/ dragon, but I hardly even look at my scorpio one anymore, just the dragon. So what do you all think..??

Answer 1

They are both accurate.People fall into the trap of just looking at the one of the chinese signs without realizing that the chinese practice their astrology in an entirely different way. I confess to not knowing too much about it but what I do know is that the chinese use the lunar calender as opposed to the Solar calender that the west uses.Furthur more their is a sign for the day, a sign for the month, and a sign for the year. And their are five elements as opposed to four. Thats all I know.

Speaking of the moon. It actually used to be the moon that was considered more important by the greeks and it is what month is named after (moonth/month) and we express ourselves more thourgh our moon than our sun. The sun is our conscious sense of self. We we choose when we act out our suns. But it is the moon that people close to us know us the best, because the moon shows our habit patterns,our emotions and the way we act without thinking based on sub conscious pre-disposition. Long story short, look at where your moon is.

Answer 2

Well I'm a Cancer and according to the Chinese zodiac I am a Sheep (or goat it changes I guess depending on who is writing it). I think that it is accurate, but I would have to look into it more, my element is Earth, and I would need to study the element with my signs to see which is more accurate.

Answer 3

Not at all...Based on me being a Leo,my Chinese sign is supposed to be a monkey.

Then when I was reading the dates of each Chinese sign,I saw that I was a Pig and it's not true..Nothing about it was true. 0% accurate.I will agree a little more about the Monkey though.

Answer 4

Both are equqlly valid, which is to say, total BS.

Cheers

Answer 5

I find the moon to be my sign[personality]

I am the rabbit and that does fit me

Answer 6

I do not like Chinese astrology . but not at all . Its way to general My best friend is a hose like me ; but she is totally different of me ; bu in western astro ; she is a Cancer and I am a Libra

Answer 7

That's tough. I'm a Sagittarius/ Rabbit (also known as the cat in some places) and just from what I have been able to get my hands on reading wise, I think they are both quite good but I lean more towards the Western astrology.
