Chinese animal signs are a 12-year cycle
used for dating the years. It represents a cyclical concept
of time, rather than the Western linear concept of time.
Chinese Lunar Calendar is based on the cycles of the moon,
and is constructed in a different order than the Western
solar calendar. The Chinese calendar, the beginning of
the year falls somewhere between late January and early
February. The Chinese have adopted the Western calendar
since 1911, but the lunar calendar is still used for festive
occasions such as the Chinese New Year. Few Chinese calendars
will print both the solar dates and the Chinese lunar
dates. |
| Origin of Chinese
astrology |
In United States, the years are dated from
the birth of Jesus Christ, i.e. 1977 means 1,977 years
after the birth of Christ. This represents a linear perception
of time, with time proceeding in a straight line from
the past to the present and the future. But traditional
China, dating methods were cyclical, cyclical meaning
something that is repeated time after time according to
a pattern. A popular folk method which reflected this
cyclical method of recording years are the Twelve Animal
Signs. Every year is assigned an animal name or "sign"
according to a repeating cycle: Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit,
Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and
Boar. Therefore, every twelve years the same animal name
or "sign" would reappear.
Animal signs also serve a useful social function for finding
out people’s ages. Instead of asking directly how
old a person is, people often ask what his or her animal
sign is. It would place that person’s age within
a cycle of 12 years, and with the common sense, we can
calculate the exact age. Generally, though, people ask
for animal signs not to compute a person’s exact
numerical age, but to simply know who is older among friends
and acquaintances. |
| Legendry article |
| Once upon a time the twelve animals quarreled
one day as to who was to head the cycle of years. The
gods were asked to decide and they held a contest, whoever
was to reach the opposite bank of the river would be first
and the rest of the animals would receive their years
according to their turn. All the animals gathered at the
river bank and jumped in. Unknown to the ox, the rat had
jumped upon his back. As the ox was about to jump ashore,
the rat jumped off the ox's back, and won the race. The
pig, who was very lazy, ended up last. That is why the
rat is the first year of the animal cycle, the ox second
and the pig last. |
