TIBETAN ASTROLOGY HISTORY
Tibetan astrology is an ancient science that has been used in Tibet for thousands of years.
In particular, "Elemental Astrology" is based on five elements with twelve animals which
form a sixty year cycle. The nicknames in Tibetan are "skar-rtsis" or star mathematics and
"byung-rtsis" or Elemental Astrology. Yet the overall aim of Tibetan astrology and astronomy,
like modern sciences is to understand the cosmos, how it operates and how we can benefit
from its forces and transitions, in order to live in union with the constant changes and
movements of which we are an intergral part.
Traditionally, the Tibetans had accepted foreign traditions from the surrounding
civilizations of India, Iran, Nepal, Persia, Greece, Central Asia and China.
They incorporated these foreign traditions and values with their own primal Buddhist
orientation in order to maximize the possible positive evolutionary potential of
the human race. Their intention was the attainment of liberation and enlightenment
by way of the perfection of wisdom and compassion.
TIBETAN ASTRO SCIENCE
Tibetan Astro Science is an ancient science for promoting mental and pysical health,
and happiness. It is based on the teaching of the Lord Buddha. The text is called
the Shri Kalachakra tantra. Buddha taught this profound text in the year 1027 A.D.
In this ancient art of calculation and interpretation of celestial phenomena, it is
classified into two categories: Elemental Astrology or Jung-Tsis and Astronomy or
Kar-Tsis, and have drawn from the teachings of neighboring countries in synthesis
with the tenets of Buddhism to create a uniquely Tibetan system.
Shaped by this intention and an altruistic way of life, Tibetan Astro Science can guide,
support and enable us to understand what our human life means in its ultimate sense.
The core of Tibetan Astro Science is based on the synthesis achieved by the Desi Sangye
YGatso (1653-1705), who served as Regent of Tibet under H.H. the Fifth Dalai Lama, (1617-1682).
The Desi wrote many works in the course of his reign and codified Tibetan civilization.
The White Beryl, one of the many works of the Desi, provided an overview of Tibetan Astro
Science. It presented the various foundational myths underlying its practices, highlighted
its most profound dimensions and demonstrated their relevance and assessibility.
