Reseña:

Astrología china: Explorando el zodíaco oriental explica nuestra «dotación natural» o «ser interior», nuestra personalidad desde el principio. Este arte de 5000 años de antigüedad pinta un cuadro notable de personalidad y potencial utilizando los arquetipos de los 12 signos del antiguo zodíaco oriental. Si bien cada uno de nosotros posee algunas cualidades de los 12 signos, cada uno de nosotros tiene un signo dominante y un elemento de nacimiento. Prepárate para algunos «¡ah, ja!» momentos mientras exploras este antiguo arte y obtienes una idea de los personajes que conoces a lo largo del camino de la vida. Puede notar similitudes interesantes con sus amigos y familiares, y es posible que nunca vuelva a verse de la misma manera. Este es un sistema atemporal que es tan pertinente hoy como lo fue hace muchos siglos. En un libro que fascinará tanto a los devotos de la astrología occidental como a aquellos que ni siquiera han consultado sus horóscopos en el periódico, aprenderás:

• Los doce signos del zodíaco oriental y lo que te dicen sobre ti y los demás.
• Los Cinco Elementos, y cómo tu elemento natal influye en tu destino.
• Signos de amor chinos, conexiones kármicas y los secretos de las almas gemelas. Tu «compañero» de la hora de nacimiento chino: tu otro yo.
