  • Chinese Zodiac Hidden Secrets to Discover Future
    Chinese Zodiac Hidden secrets to discover future 24 MARCH 2020, IGOR MICUNOVIC Chinese zodiac What Is Chinese Astrology? Chinese astrology and constellations were mostly used for divination. Chinese astrology is perhaps the oldest known horoscope system in the world. Ancient writings have been dated as far as the written records of China itself, many of which have been well-preserved and can be found in the monasteries in China, and all across South-East Asia. Chinese astrology is based on astronomy and traditional calendars. Using information gathered from the time and date of your birth, a Chinese astrologer is then able to draw up a map of your karma and life and advise you accordingly. When you receive a Chinese Astrology reading you are thus benefiting from a tradition that is thousands of years old. Chinese astrology is the divination of the future from the Chinese calendar, which is based on astronomy, and ancient Chinese philosophy. In ancient China, the astrologers primarily served the emperor and his court and were responsible for the stability, well-being and the health of the population. The roots of the Chinese astrological system are planted deeply in the classical philosophies of Kongzi 孔⼦(Confucius) and Laozi ⽼⼦(Lao Tse). Ancient astrologers could correctly predict when tides, seasons, the proper time to plant and harvest crops, to avoid or make wars. According to Chinese Astrology, a person's destiny can be determined by the position of the major planets, along with the positions of the Sun, Moon and comets and the person's time of birth and Zodiac Sign.

Chinese zodiac is an original folk culture in China, and it has a profound effect. In vision style, the pure animal totem evolves into a diverse and polymorphic performance style. Nowadays, the design trend that is to be contracted, returns essence. The form of the Chinese zodiac culture is also quietly changing, presenting a new aesthetic style in a contracted form. Introduction Zodiac is a unique folk culture in China, and it originated from the ancestor's natural worship. Compared to nature, people seem tiny or even negligible, so they seek for gods' asylum. The so called "all things have spirit", "beings are all God", in fact are people's beliefs when they personify the animal’s and plants in nature which become the object of worship and awe.[1] Zodiac in the twelve kinds of animals: rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, pig naturally become a symbol of the gods. And then gradually applied to the annals of the law, and the twelve Earthly Branches: rat charm, ox patient, tiger sensitive, rabbit articulate, dragon healthy snake deep, horse popular, goat elegant, monkey clever, pooster deep thinkers, dog loyalty, and pig chivalrous corresponding. The zodiac comes from the needs of survival, and later penetrates into all areas of life.

  • Chinese Zodiac Animals Trail #Cnysunderland2021
    Chinese Zodiac Animals Trail #CNYSunderland2021 Find out amazing facts about the 12 animals of the Chinese Zodiac and try some fun animal actions. 12th February 2021 is the start of the Year of the Ox, but how were the animals chosen and in which order do they follow each other? Find out more….. How did the years get their names? A long time ago in China, the gods decided that they wanted to name the years after animals. They chose twelve animals – dragon, tiger, horse, snake, pig, cockerel, rat, rabbit, goat, dog, ox and monkey. All of these wanted the first year to be named after them as they all thought themselves to be the most important. Can you imagine the noise when they were arguing? They made so much noise that they woke up the gods. After listening to all their arguments the gods decided to settle the matter by holding a race across a wide river. The years would be named according to the order in which the animals finished the race. The animals were very excited. They all believed that they would win – although the pig wasn’t quite so sure. During the race there were many changes in position, with different animals taking the lead. As they approached the river bank ox was in the lead with rat a very close second. Rat was determined to win but he was getting very tired. He had to think quickly. He managed to catch the ox’s tail and from there he climbed onto his back. Ox could see that he was winning but just as he was about to touch the bank, rat jumped over his head and landed on dry land.

EASTERN EUROPE STUDIES CENTRE INSTITUTE OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AND POLITICAL SCIENCE, VILNIUS UNIVERSITY Vilnius, Lithuania 30 November 2020 2 SINO-LITHUANIAN RELATIONS IN 2020: SHEDDING THE MASKS? © VU IIRPS photo Konstantinas Andrijauskas – Associate Professor of Asian Studies and International Politics at Vil- nius University (Lithuania); formerly a senior visit- ing scholar at China’s Fudan (Shanghai, 2011) and Zhejiang (Hangzhou, 2013) universities as well as Columbia University (New York City, U.S., 2017, Fulbright Scholar Program); author of two Lithua- nian-language books on contemporary relations between China, Russia and India (2016) and com- parative history of pre-modern non-European civili- zations (2018, co-authorship). SINO-LITHUANIAN RELATIONS IN 2020: SHEDDING THE MASKS? 3 Introduction As of the end of 2020, for obvious and rather gloomy reasons the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has actually increased its topi- cal relevance in the world, as well as in Lithuania, in comparison with the previous year which itself already seems to be a distant memory. When the present author’s introductory analytical study of China’s growing presence in the largest, southernmost Baltic state, which focused particularly on the unprecedented downgrade in its relationship with Beijing in 2019,1 was published in mid-February 2020, a deliberate choice was made to postpone the discussion of then-emerging global health crisis. The current publication is there- fore somewhat predetermined by the first one, and should be in- terpreted as its – hopefully – consistent continuation with some unavoidable overlap between them both. The World Health Organization (WHO) belatedly declared the COV- ID-19 outbreak as a ‘Public Health Emergency of International Con- cern’ on 30 January, as the travel-intensive Chinese New Year hol- idays had already made an impact on the rest of the planet.

These are students who struggle to succeed in math and need remediation. Most students are in my classroom for 45 minutes daily. For this TIP I will share this lesson with the all the 6 th grade math teachers, since this lesson meets a 6 th grade indicator. I will also collaborate with the Reading Intervention teacher and have her create a Venn Diagram, comparing and contrasting the information on the Zodiacs. 2. The Chinese Zodiac represents a cyclical concept of time, rather than the Western linear concept of time. The Chinese Zodiac, or Chinese animal signs, is based on 60-year cycles consisting of 5 cycles of the 12 zodiac animals. When these cycles began is not exactly clear, but the 12 groups of animals had appeared during the Warring States Period and the Han Dynasty commonly recognized the identity of the animals. 3. There are several purposes of this lesson. First is to show 6 th grade students how mathematics is the used in the Chinese Zodiac system. Second is to compare the Chinese Zodiac to the zodiac signs we use in the United States. Finally allow students to see how the Chinese system works, find their symbol, and tell what it means.

  • 1. Korean Zodiac the Chinese Zodiac Signs Are Used by Cultures Other Than Chinese, Too
    EDIÇÃO Nº 07 NOVEMBRO DE 2014 ARTIGO RECEBIDO ATÉ 30/09/2014 ARTIGO APROVADO ATÉ 30/10/2014 ZODIAC ANIMALS IN KOREAN PROVERBS Arevik Chačatrjan Charles University in Prague, Department of Ethnology, Prague, Czech Republic SUMMARY:There are a lot of animals we can meet in Korean folklore, but in this paper are described the animals that are most commonly mentioned in the Far Eastern zodiac, better known in English as the Chinese Zodiac. Here are described the role of the zodiac animal images in Korean folklore: proverbs, sayings etc. Each animal has its allegorical form and expresses various traits of man. Dealing with twelve animals of the Korean zodiac such as rat (jui), ox (so), tiger (beom, horangi), rabbit (tokki), dragon (yong), snake (baem), horse (mal), sheep (yang), monkey (wonsungi), rooster (sutak), dog (gae), pig (dwaeji), this article represents a contribution to research in Korean paremiology in the specific field of animal idioms. Besides referring to proverbs and sayings about these animals, surely I also try to give some examples of their role and importance in the history of the Korean nation and in other genres of Korean folklore. For this article, are used both North and South Korean sources, mainly dictionaries and books of proverbs, in order to disprove the point of view that there are profound big language differences between the two Koreas. 1. Korean zodiac The Chinese zodiac signs are used by cultures other than Chinese, too. They are used in some other Asian countries that have been under the cultural influence of China and also in countries that have not been under influence of China.
