History & Cultural Origins of Daily Chinese Horoscopes
Daily Chinese fortune-telling draws on the sexagenary cycle (干支纪日), a 60-day stem-branch calendar already recorded on Shang dynasty oracle bones more than 3,000 years ago. Each day has a Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch. Traditional almanacs (黄历) used that gan-zhi for 宜忌 activities and for clash (Liu Chong / 六冲) with a birth-year animal. Comparing your zodiac with today's branch through San He (三合), Liu He (六合), and Liu Chong (六冲) is the same classical logic behind modern daily Chinese horoscopes.
