Chinese astrology is based on the traditional astronomy and calendars.

The development of Chinese astrology is tied to that of astronomy, which came to flourish during the Han Dynasty (2nd century BC to 2nd century AD).

Feng Shui is a Chinese philosophical system of harmonizing everyone with the surrounding environment.

It is closely linked to Taoism.

The term feng shui literally translates as "wind-water" in English.

This is a cultural shorthand taken from the passage of the now-lost Classic of Burial recorded in Guo Pu's commentary:

Numerology is any belief in the divine, mystical relationship between a number and one or more coinciding events.

It is also the study of the numerical value of the letters in words, names and ideas.

It is often associated with the paranormal, alongside astrology and similar divinatory arts.

Jyotisha (or Jyotishyam from Sanskrit ', from ' "light, heavenly body") is the traditional Hindu system of astrology, also known as Hindu astrology, Indian astrology, and more recently Vedic astrology.

The term Hindu astrology has been in use as the English equivalent of Jyotiṣa since the early 19th century, whereas Vedic astrology is a relatively recent term, entering common usage in the 1980s with self-help publications on Āyurveda or Yoga.

Vedanga Jyotisha is one of the earliest texts about astronomy within the Vedas.

However, some authors have claimed that the horoscopic astrology in the Indian subcontinent came from Hellenistic influences, post-dating the Vedic period.

The zodiac is an area of the sky centered upon the ecliptic, the apparent path of the Sun across the celestial sphere over the course of the year.

The paths of the Moon and visible planets also remain close to the ecliptic, within the belt of the zodiac, which extends 8-9° north or south of the ecliptic, as measured in celestial latitude.

In western astrology and (formerly) astronomy, the zodiac is divided into twelve signs, each sign occupying 30° of celestial longitude.

Because the signs are regular, they do not correspond exactly to the boundaries of the twelve constellations after which they are named.
