So You’re Taurus!

You are likely to understand your general character very well. One strong feature is a response to beauty, with any artistic aptitude favouring singing and sometimes pottery and sculpturing attracting your creative skills. But you like things to be easy to come by so you will probably find that your choices are affected by this and you will tend to develop an already present personal talent. You appreciate and accumulate what others have created and tend to limit your own creativity.

Are There More Planets in our Solar System?

There are ongoing questions needing answers as we explore to the limits of our present capabilities the wonderful realities of the universe.

As we are identifying planets out in systems beyond ours, we also focus upon the question whether there are other previously unknown planets in our own Solar System, far out beyond Pluto or so close to the Sun that we cannot see them.

Astronomy and Astrology

Astronomy and Astrology are closely related grand sciences that help us to learn of the forms and forces that exist beyond our planet Earth. The former observes the visible heavenly bodies and the structure of the universe. The latter interprets their influences not only upon human nature but upon all life and events on our planet.

In regard to humans, there is third science of Psychology that so well should be part of the trio. It can analyze the personality and identify some of the keys that motivate the physical, emotional and mental responses of the individual human being or living creature to the invisible subtle weather patterns created by forces we cannot choose to ignore.

Astro-Psychology

Astrology approaches its understanding of the psychology of human nature through observation and interpretation of the cosmic influences and energies of the zodiac, solar system and planets upon the whole human psyche. The science is based upon the ancient system with its firm traditional basis for analysis that includes character, health factors, human relationships and circumstances as well as national and wider issues that affect our globe.

Astro-Psychology, in its study of individual human nature, begins simply with the serious consideration of the zodiacal birth sign. We learn to appraise the identified positive characteristics of ‘our sign’ and find it easy enough to accept that these virtues are inherent in us.  Not so easy, but equally necessary, is our attention to the negative traits. Although commonly shared as inherent weaknesses in us all, they are particularly evident in us and in others of the same birth sign as our own.

Your Rising Sign and Personality

The zodiacal sign in which the Sun is placed in the month and on the day you were born, is known as your Sun Sign or Birth Sign, and is the familiar one that you claim as your own.

The Ascendant or Rising Sign is the ‘other sign’ which you must consider to be of equal importance in addition to the Sun Sign. It is the sign on the eastern horizon at the minute you took first breath and exerts a strong influence. Every 2 hours in succession, another sign will appear above the horizon, so that is why it is important to know the hour, and the minute if possible, of your birth before a professional astrologer can give you an accurate analysis of your chart.

Look to the Moon – To Understand our Emotions

It is generally a dominant need of us all to we can understand our emotions and particularly our love nature and why we feel as we do. We also should be willing to know the causes of any negative emotional reactions, so we can learn to channel our energy more positively.

In the case of our well known Sun Sign there is no doubt that basic analysis will show that  our emotional nature, say in the case of Taurus, will be of strong attachment to people and to material affections but in the extreme can become a possessive tendency in relationships. Also, that an Aquarian finds it easier to love the whole world, impersonally, than to cope with specific needs of a particular friend.  There are many features common to others who share your zodiacal sign.

Divisions of the Chart – The Astrological ‘Houses’

From the blank circular map with its twelve divisions looking like slices of a pie, we begin to mark the unique factors and influences that converge upon the individual in question. These divisions denote areas of the heavens and are known as the ‘Houses’. Although the planetary bodies move position, the House divisions remain constant in the birth chart.

Each House is of 30 degrees or one twelfth of the circle. In the system known as the ‘Equal House Division’ the houses are numbered anti-clockwise from the horizon point on the left of the circle with the first being the 30 degree or part thereof appearing on the horizon at your time of birth. Each House is important as it relates to a different aspect of your life and influences the reading and interpretation of your horoscope.

The Astrological Chart

An astrological chart can be compared with a recipe or registration of the various invisible energies of the cosmos that are received by our planet to influence life on the earth. These various energies from space, that at any moment in time constitute an invisible climate, that  influences us as we draw our first breath and continue to affect our personality, attitudes and decisions throughout our lifetime. The tendencies function in our nature together with our independent and powerful faculty of self determination and free will.

A chart of the astrological energies can be drawn up to record any given moment in time and can be for different purposes including the initiation of an enterprise or the birth of an idea.

Reminders of Our Destiny

There are times to review our positive efforts and check that we are seeking to achieve in the direction most suited to our hearts, minds and abilities.

This can be achieved by simple reflection, by meditation, by a disciplined session of self talk or by other means, one being a fresh reading and interpretation of your birth chart and the appropriate progressions. An experienced astrologer can provide wise counsel through the impersonal element of professionalism. Someone who knows you well cannot help but be biased. We are also more than inclined to be biased ourselves!

Moon in the Houses

We know the Moon and its qualities and its magnetic power that is strong enough to pull the tidal waters of our world, as it pulls the sap upward in plants and draws our human life blood towards stimulation of our brains. Even stronger is that part of our psyche that corresponds and reacts to the moon – our emotional nature.

So the Moon affects the brain and therefore our thought but additionally rules the liquid nature of our changing feelings and emotions. We bear this in mind when considering how the placement of the Moon in the Houses of our personal Chart is likely to affect us.
