You think you know it, the Yin and the Yang, the 5 elements, the 12 animals: the Rat, the Buffalo, the Tiger... But to truly practise it (at least the Zi Wei Dou Shu Astrology), and to draw convincing results, it is necessary to add 109 energies that finally allow to establish the real Chinese chart. This energy card displays the whole existence, Decade by Decade, Year by Year, Moon by Moon... and even Hour by Hour.

It is then easy to distinguish periods of success, of neutrality, or of failure: Chinese Astrology  is a tremendous tool to determine the nature and the date of the main events of a life.

Chinese and Western Astrologies are magnificently complementary: Western Astrology is best used to describe the inner personality while Chinese Astrology gives precise information about the external unfolding of a life. Besides, using both Astrologies helps to remove all ambiguities.

It is not always simple for example, with Western Astrology, to know if a transit of Saturn (a transit occurs when a planet passes again on the position it already had in the native chart) indicates the failure of an enterprise, or the maturity of someone directing all his/her energies to a long-term realization.In this case, the study of the corresponding Chinese period generally allows to decide.

He was born on the 28th of  April 1937, during the Tiger hour. In the Destiny (see the chart below), there are three energies of the "Martial" group, the group of power struggles and clashes. But let us hear Mr. François Villée and An Vo Van Em's predictions published during the First Gulf War (1990):

• << The decade 43-52 (from the age of 43 to 52) seems to be Saddam Hussein's best one. It is made of intense activity, violence and triumph. This decade sees the summit of his power: Kurds are eliminated, Iran is kneeling, most nations help Iraq, sell arms to it, and train its soldiers. >>

  << At the age of 53, just when he changes decade, Saddam "pounces" on the Koweit and seizes the "Gold of the West" (oil). The new decade stimulates the energies Fate, Nullity, Aid and Support, called the "hold-up" configuration by the ancient Chinese manuscripts. >>

  << But this new decade is against Saddam Hussein: Tiger and Moon together symbolize "the Metal that destroys the country, the people and the child". Moreover, the four nullities of the Chinese chart that mean Annihilation also intervene in this decade.>> And indeed, the country explodes under a deluge of metal and one of Saddam's son is killed...

  << Nevertheless the Chinese year of the Horse, active until the 14th of February 91, is excellent in this chart, with its set of exceptionally strong, lucky and bellicose energies. Saddam therefore will hold out during this year despite of his bad decade and will defy everyone.>>

  << On the15th of February 91, the Chinese year will change, becoming the year of the Goat that corresponds in Saddam's chart to the Honest energy, totally opposite to the war. Moreover, the first Moon of this year will fall on the same box, doubling the opposite energies....>>  And in fact, this Moon sees the surrender of the iraqy army...

  << The next decade (Monkey box) will begin in 98/99, and it seems very good for Saddam. If he is still in power, it will be difficult to stop him... But, as it is crossed out (VB), the King may fall... Specially with Void in the Destiny, just in front of this Monkey box.>>

 [Introduction] [Analysis] [Conclusion]

As you can see below, it consists of a big rectangle (a paddy field) divided into twelve Boxes (plots of land), also called Palaces. Each box is named after an animal (the first box being the Rat and the twelfth one the Boar). These are the twelve Earthly Branches. There are also ten Heavenly Stems: Giap, At, Binh, Dinh.... 1998 for instance is a year Tiger of Mau (Wu-Yin in Chinese), while 1937 was Buffalo of Dinh (Ding-Chou in Chinese)...

There are many other notions: Elements (Fire/Metal/Water/Wood/Earth), Seasons, Parities (Yin/Yang), Colors, Cardinal points... Moreover, each of the twelve boxes is associated with a domain of the existence (Parents, Luck,  Property, Brothers and Sisters...).

A Chinese Natal Chart may even be used to make personalized Feng Shui...

Izi Wai helps you to draw and analyze such a chart:  

This chart is vigorous, lucky. The greatest problem comes from Severed Bar (S.B) in the destiny. This energy breaks and perverts the potentialities of the chart, and the presence of Void is no good omen. Let us first study the Destiny House (in the Tiger box, on the bottom left-hand side of the chart):

• The Energy Seven Swords in the destiny makes Saddam belong to the Martial Chinese group, the group of clashes and power struggles (the two other main groups are the Literary group, and the Royal group). Seven Swords in the destiny gives nervousness and obstinacy, violence and rashness. With S.B, it loses some generosity and increases in brutality, even if it keeps its fearsome efficiency.  Its shining look (3 stars) indicates organizing and commanding abilities. Natives of a Dinh year are often called to high office. With an iron will, eager and conquering, they like blood and prove formidable hunters.

• Two other energies of this Martial group (Officer and Seal) intensify the impulsive and violent character of the natives of this group. Crusher, of the Murderous group, also strengthens this selfish and brutal look: the native stops at nothing to succeed, Giant Gate, Punishment and Cloud in the symmetrical box clearly show it.

• Seal and Officer barred (S.B) indicate serious problems before the age of thirty, but these energies of the  martial group put up with this kind of annoyances and the native survives. Anyway, Saddam is born on a Yin year while the Tiger box, where the Destiny is, Yang: the influence of S.B is no more than 20%, which explains, along with a very beautiful house of  Luck, the fact that Saddam escapes so many attacks.

  Dissertation and Discourses being in convergence of the Destiny, like Cordon and Flower, the intelligence is here lively, lucid and clear (in convergence means "separated by either 0, 3 or 5 boxes").

House of Luck:  Seal in the destiny indicates responsibilities and dignities conferred by the State, and Officer favors promotions. Luck, as its name points out, is a star of protection : the native is lucky, particularly since the house of Luck is beautiful, with a lot of favorable energies (Dance, Banner, Blue Dragon...). But, once again, S.B, Void, Solitude and Crusher in the Destiny strongly moderate this luck that could otherwise have been exceptional. Moreover, Void in the destiny often indicates one or several impressive bankruptcies.

• On the other hand, the House of Real Estate shows a sparkling Sun in the Serpent box, denoting an accumulation  of  goods, even if Tears and Armor are not really good. The House of Finances is bluntly exceptional: Aphrodite in the Dog box indicates a considerable fortune, and is protected by Celestial Virtue, Ancestors Virtue and Heaven Deliverance. Finally, the House of Health is good: Fortune, Medal, Genius Deliverance... are very favorable, even Void Bar (V.B) is auspicious here (only in the case of Health).

House of Family: General in the House of Union signs a married life disturbed by jealousy and violence. Cordon in the destiny gives a sensual personality, and though Benefactor in Union is generally favorable, it is here escorted by Thunder. Solitude in the Destiny caps it all: the native is not made for family happiness (Punishment and Cloud in the House of Children certainly do not help).

House of Vocation (or Profession): It corresponds here to the second world, i.e. the destiny after the age of thirty. It contains Demolisher in the Horse box, the "Typhoon in the Sky", that foretells plots and upheavals. Demolisher is usually similar to the Scorpio sign of Western Astrology. In Vocation House, this energy  indicates success in time of war and a profession requiring a liking for risk. Moreover, it is in trine (with three boxes in between) with  Seven Swords and Aphrodite, and in opposition with Virgin: the most ferocious energies of Chinese Astrology rule this chart. Dissertation, Aid and Treasure are excellent and favor professional success.
 
Public and Foreign Relationship House:  It is brilliant though Waylayer is not favorable: one or several foreign enemies, in the box symbolizing the West... Palace represents a wealth facing the Destiny House, that the native will try to seize. On the other hand, the box  is Barred (V.B), which cancels and perverts all good energies: a big problem...
