For thousands of years, Myanmar people have used their astrology and religion to establish a harmony between people and the world around them. The exact origins of the eight animals of Myanmar astrology--the Garuda, Tiger, Lion, Elephant, Tuskless-Elephant, Rat, Guinea-Pig and Dragon-- remain a mystery. Nevertheless, these animals are important in Myanmar astrology. They are much more than general signposts to the day, and to the possible good or bad times ahead for us all. The eight animals of the Myanmar astrology are considered to be a reflection of the Universe itself. Before you begin to cast your Myanmar horoscope, check your day of birth.
