An ancient legend tells us about the origin of the eastern horoscope. Buddha invited all animals to celebrate the New Year, but only 12 responded to the invitation: Mouse, Bull, Tiger, Hare, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. And then Buddha decided to thank the animals by giving each of them a year. The oriental horoscope is inextricably linked to the Chinese calendar, according to which 12 mythological animals, according to the Eastern cosmogonic theory, represent 12 cosmic influences. The year of birth forms one of the 12 levels of self-realization for a person. The Eastern sign is a personality strategy, as it creates a field of activity where the laws and principles of people's attitude towards an individual are manifested.
