Chinese astrology, also known as Four Pillars of Destiny or Bazi, originated in ancient China. Its roots can be traced back to the warring state period (475-221 BC) when it was developed by astronomers and philosophers. The development of Chinese astrology was influenced by early philosophies, such as Taoism and Confucianism, and it became an integral part of traditional Chinese culture. Over the centuries, Chinese astrology has been refined and practiced, and it continues to be widely used in various Asian cultures for divination and understanding personal fortunes.
