[I think chinese astrology should be discussed in detail on the forum]

Dear cecil,
I think the chinese astrology should be discussed in detail on forum. Since most people are not that familiar with pillar of destiny as they are with Western astrology for finding the future. And chinese astrology is closer to Western astrology compared to pillar of destiny. And most books and sites promote chinese astrology and its confusing to the readers who are not proficient in either of them.
I like to read what the coming year hold for me and whenever I read the chinese astrology I feel completely confused e.g. It says that the coming year is not that good for me and that metallic colors and yellow colors will bring luck to me. And it gives me month by month analysis of events And when I look at my pillars I get confused since it just mentions that the year is good and make use of good luck with earth and wood. Pillars don't give me any indication of events which will be unfolding and what should I avoid ietc. So you see I want the best of both worlds since as we all know every human being wants to know what will happen in future and what the tomorrow will bring. Would like to know your views on this. Thanks.

written some 4000 years ago. So how the light became a enhancer of Qi. Thanks.
