The only Chinese astrology book which contains 6 subjects in one volume: traditional Chinese horoscope, I Ching, palmistry, sky chart, Feng Shui and face reading. This description may be from another edition of this product.
If you're only looking for a 12 animal astrology book, than you might want to look somewhere else for Tri Lam's Encyclopedia of Chinese Astrology surpasses all of those. However, if you want a comprehensive "sky chart", palmisty, face reading, 12 animal astrology, feng shui, and I-Ching book, than this book is just right for you! With step-by-step instructions, Tri Lam gives you a comprehensive outlook within the realm of tradtional Chinese/Vietnamese techniques of divination (I do not use this word lightly), than this book is your guide. Now, you will not become an astrology reader nor a palm reader after reading this but you will definitely get a sense of the field. I have almost every single Chinese Astrology book out there but not one can ever come close as this.

Excellent book about Chinese sky chart (tu vi)

Chinese sky chart opened my eyes to the real Chinese astrology, this method is widely used by the Chinese and Vietnamese communities, but I have never read any English book about it, because there aren't any on the market until this one. There are so many and many Chinese astrology books talking about the Chinese horoscope of the 12 animal signs, it's time for a real one -- the Chinese sky chart. Bravo! The Chinese way of reading the face is also very special.
Excellent book about Chinese sky chart, palmistry etc.

Chinese sky chart (Zi wei dou shu) is practiced within Chinese community all over the world but is never mentioned in any Western literature, this is the only book in English which gives a clear and easy-to-understand analysis of this complicated technique. Buy it, if you want to know the authentic Chinese astrology method used by most Chinese people, it's amazing, not like the other methods you have heart of. The palmistry section is very detailed with many graphics to show you the lines of your hand. A very good book.
