From the project READMEGet Chinese Astrology MCP app
Calculate Chinese astrology charts from a birth date.
Ask for your BaZi Four Pillars, your zodiac year, how two animals match, your five elements, a Kua number, an I Ching reading, a Zi Wei Dou Shu chart or the Flying Stars of a year. The app uses the same calculations as getchineseastrology.com and draws the result.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
