Zodiac Timeliness

The Western Zodiac system has 12 signs for each month, a cycle of 12 in a year.

With the Chinese zodiac, the 12 signs are derived from the ancients' musings about archetypal animals, people's personalities and fortunes, and their relationships with one another and years of birth. A myth about a celestial race was later developed to explain the Chinese zodiac sequence.

This differs from Western astrology, where the 12 zodiac signs are based on constellations' positions relative to the earth. The constellations were named according to Greek mythology, and astrological theory was developed based on the stars' supposed influence on human personalities and lives.

This system which is used by about one-quarter of the world's population in the Eastern Hemisphere has influenced the choice of partners (life and business), dates of birth of children, and attitudes.
