Astrology and the Western World

2009-03-21T07:20:00.000-07:00

Western world is waking up to the concept of using Astrology to improve their lives. It is perceived to be more materialistic than the Eastern world. People in the advanced economies of the world give more importance to the tangible things in life rather than the intangible ones. Eastern countries like India and China, on the other hand, give more importance to intangible things in life like love, affection, emotions etc. This difference is clearly evident if we see the lifestyle of a Western or an Eastern person. For example, for an average Indian, life is not imaginable without the concept of God. The Western countries, on the other hand, are full of Atheists and Agnostics. The Western mind has always been inquisitive and believes only on exact sciences. For them, a theory is not acceptable unless proved by scientific experiments. Well, that is quite normal. But still there are a few things which cannot be proved by scientific experiments.
There is a point after which science has to give way, and the concept of God takes over. In spite of advancements in science, the scientists still are not able to give life to a person who is dead. They also cannot explain a simple thing like electricity. There are many mysteries for which there are no scientific explanations available. But they do exist. So, it is not entirely possible to always rely on science. Therefore, issues on divine intervention cannot be ruled out. On the other hand, the eastern philosophy relies too much on the esoteric phenomena. This creates a clash with the western phenomenon. There has to be a combination of the eastern and western philosophies so that a proper balance is maintained. The good news is that we are at a time when Eastern world is beginning to accept the western philosophy and vice versa. Eastern world is trying to have a more materialistic viewpoint on life and the western world is beginning to open up to the possibility of using once esoteric phenomena such as Yoga and Meditation.

fact In Astrology

2009-02-14T02:01:00.000-08:00

Astrology is almost certainly the oldest and most widespread of all pseudosciences. Its origins can be traced back to the first half of the Hammurabi dynasty in Babylonia about 3,500 years ago.

In its modern form astrology asserts that the positions of the solar planets at the time an individual is born are somehow correlated with his or her personality, activities, preferences, and even major life events (accidents, marriages, divorces, etc.). There is no general agreement among astrologers as to how or why this can be. Nor is there agreement as to precisely which planetary positions lead to which specific traits or experiences. It is almost certain that no two astrologers will "cast" an individual's horoscope with precisely the same result. The predictions that do result are often so vague that verification is impossible, anyway.

Astrology is best understood by learning how it began. Like most urban, agricultural peoples, the Babylonians had a pantheon of many gods. They also had a well- developed science of observational astronomy, which served the highly utilitarian purpose of providing a calendar, times to plant and to harvest, times of religious festivals, etc. In this observational scheme each planet was important, and the priests whose task it was to make the observations named the planets for the gods in their pantheon -- Marduk, Isthar, Nergal, etc. By about 1000 B.C. there was an extensive Babylonian literature of "planetary omens." Since Nergal (Mars) was the god of war, a summer in which Nergal shone down brightly from the sky was a good time to wage war (or a time in which risk of war was great). Since Ishtar (Venus) was the goddess of love, a spring night in which Ishtar shone high in the West after sunset was a good time to make love.

Where The Astrology Begain

2009-02-05T02:24:00.000-08:00

Astrology is a type of prophetic look into the future using the solar system and bodies in the sky. There are various types out there and by far most of the astrology that you’ll find done is anything but real. Yet, true astrology is very perplexing because it can be very real. The celestial bodies can do many things like provide you with the ability to understand, to organize the knowledge, and to interpret the world around you. Often, it is said that the location of various bodies means something.

Traditionally, astrology is based on the relative positions and the movements of the celestial bodies (both real and non existent.) One of the main things that astrology claims to provide is an understanding of personality traits. It is believed that the positions of the celestial bodies in the sky influences many things such as your personality traits, your physical characteristics and even important things that will happen within your life. Some astrologers believe that each person has a predestined life and that that life can be reflected and told from the sky above.

Astro Socks

2009-01-24T10:11:00.000-08:00

Astro Socks is a wonderful little juvenile action adventure fiction with a little space and astronomy thrown in. The lead character, Chris, is a young boy who wants to find a solution to socks continually falling off his infant sister. Chris shows us some of the creation process, how to take notes, the things to consider when creating a new product and reaching out to others for their expertise.

Author Leigh M. LeCreux shows how being smart and having unique interests is nothing to be ashamed of; it is something to celebrate. The young boy's journey through the invention process was very realistic. I thought the inclusion of frustration and feelings of inadequacy are realistic no matter what age one might be, but that perseverance will always win in the end.

The most appealing aspect about this book is the impressive and inspiring idea that a young person could invent a product that would be taken seriously by the corporate world. That reminds me of a guest on my radio show from the Green2Gold organization - Alan Tratner told me then about a young person who had invented a compostable golf tee that would prevent damage to the golf range and equipment but also would prevent injury and a horrible death for animals who mistake golf tees for food. This invention is now patented and like the main character of Astro Socks, this child will not likely have to worry about the cost of University in the future.

Ayurveda And Hindu Astrology

2009-01-17T08:53:00.000-08:00

Ayurveda and Hindu astrology are closely related aspects of Vedic science. Many astrologers in India have practiced Ayurveda and many vaidyas, Ayurvedic doctors, have been astrologers. Even when not trained in Ayurveda, astrologers still consider disease and its treatment. Even when not trained in astrology, Ayurvedic doctors refer to astrology and astrological treatment methods.

Vedic astrologer can determine the physical constitution and appearance of the individual from the birth chart. They can figure out basic health, longevity and disease tendencies. They can see which planets have the power to cause disease, what kinds of diseases are likely to occur, what parts of the body are likely to be affected, and when these problems are likely to occur.Medical astrology is one of the main branches of Hindu Astrology.

As it includes remedial measures for harmonizing planetary influences, it is perhaps the most practical branch as well. It includes the entire astrology of healing. Not only Hindu astrology helpful for ordinary disease conditions, it also has means of diagnosis and treatment for diseases that are not curable by usual medical methods.

In this way he confirms the correctness of his astrological predictions through his psychic abilities such as intuition and clairvoyance. In fact he uses his supernatural powers at every step while casting a horoscope or interpreting the movements and positions of the planets or the houses through which they pass.

Astrology Symbols

2009-01-02T23:04:00.000-08:00

Aquarius is believed to be the most discernable astrology symbol. This astrology symbol is always presented with figures, which resemble water. Someone can relate the waves on the astrology sign’s image with an aquarium but not with water. However, the Aquarius astrology sign is probably the easiest to remember.

Other easy to remember astrology signs are Taurus and Aries. The Taurus astrology sign image represents a bull. Its name can be easily remembered because the Spanish word for bull is the same. A sphere with two bull-like horns is usually the picture of the Taurus astrology sign. On the other hand, the Aries astrology sign is associated with a goat and its image shows horns on a goat’s head.

Mystrious Scarpio

2008-12-26T05:09:00.000-08:00

As the blazing Sun and fortunate Jupiter enter Scorpio at the end of October 2005, we are embarking upon a powerful new year of truly scorpionic vibrations! Sue Hopper has written a wonderful article on the subject of Sex, Death and Rebirth — the essence of the Scorpion heart — which we first published some time ago on this site. Isn't it just the thing to publish again here on Astrology on the Web, since this is the beginning of a fabulously Scorpio year. Now, read on...

I learned everything I know about seducing a man from a Scorpio woman who was my best childhood friend. She seduced everyone who made eye contact with her... she was beautiful, mysterious, and untamable. She introduced me to incense, candles, essential oils, exotic, ethnic styles and fashions. She opened my mind to something beyond the Catholicism I had been raised with... she introduced me to Buddha and intrigued me with visions of Ganesh and Kali. For nearly ten years she and I were a force to be reckoned with... she was the one all the boys wanted, but I was the only one she remained remotely loyal to.

As a more submissive Pisces, I was perfectly happy to sit back and let her take the lead. Unfortunately, drug abuse took a toll on her and she descended into madness. Our paths diverged sharply many years ago, and she went on to a life of prostitution while I chose a conventional, family oriented lifestyle. Yet her imprint on me remains strong... it can be seen in the way I dress, the way I decorate my home, and yes, the way I seduce those with whom I seek intimacy.

Immortality... or Immorality!

If you want to learn about immortality, seek out a Scorpio. If you are interested in immorality, a Scorpio may be willing to help you out, too! Temptations of every kind will threaten to lure Scorpio to the darkest sides of life, but the experience of death in all its forms is a prerequisite for those who want to be schooled in the mysteries of life. Whether it is the death of ego, le petit mort of sex, or a more traumatic event that leaves the native reeling, Scorpio is called upon to brave the annihilation of All That Is to prepare for what Is To Come. Sadly, many are eventually overcome by deeply buried anger and resentment. Poisoned by the bitterness of life, they seem unable to escape the cycle of destruction and become living wraiths, like my childhood friend and first husband. The Scorpion who can rise above the lower vibrations created by the disharmony and pain in life eventually becomes a Dove... a symbol of the spirit reborn. The next time you meet a Scorpio, pay attention! It might just be time for you to touch the hand of fate and dance with eternity.

A Basic Introduction To Astrology

2008-10-17T09:07:00.000-07:00

Astrology is without a doubt one of the most popular of the occult sciences in the world today. Think I'm kidding? All you have to do is open your front door, pick up the daily newspaper, open it up to the leisure section and there you will find your daily horoscope.

In addition to newspapers, you'll also find this information in magazines, online, on the television and just about anywhere you go. In this article, we're going to cover the basics of astrology, as a comprehensive overview is way beyond the scope of any one article. Hopefully, after reading this, you'll have a pretty good idea if this is something that you want to get into. It is a most fascinating occult science.

The basis of Astrology stems from the planets in our solar system, as well as our own son. When we're born, these planets are all in a certain position. This is what determines our astrological sign at the time of our birth.. The sun and the planets all govern a different area of our lives.. This all goes back to Greek Mythology, as the Greek Gods all ruled different planets.

Past Life Personal Report

2008-09-26T01:46:00.000-07:00

You’ve had the experience. You have also had the experience of “knowing” something that you really have no reason to know. It’s like the knowledge doesn’t belong to you, but you are more certain of it than perhaps anything else you know. You may even display talents or skills for which you have really had no training. There’s an explanation.

A growing number of astrologers have begun looking at our natal charts as an evolutionary object; a picture of an energy that is moving through time, growing and changing with each new natal experience. A few astrologers have developed what they believe to be a way of viewing a natal chart that displays the steps of that evolution and helps to explain for each of us those experiences, feelings, the knowledge, and skills that we just cannot explain. Though everyone may not agree – you WILL KNOW if what you are shown is real for you.

A Past Lives personal report is a window that lets you look backwards, across the spectrum of time to see the foundation of who you are today. This is an interpretation of your own karmic development as viewed through your personal natal chart. No, it won’t tell you that you were Napoleon or Josephine. It will tell you “who” and “what” you have been, and how your past experiences and events have helped to shape the you that is today. These revelations may answer questions that have troubled you or unlock potential that you have perhaps felt, but never realized in your present existence. Regardless of what you learn, it is an adventure that you will likely enjoy and one that you will remember forever.

Vedic vs. Western Astrology

The configuration of the Zodiac is also different in a Vedic approach to astrology. Rather than the tropical configuration that is common in western disciplines, the Vedic form of astrology makes use of what is known as a sidereal version of the Zodiac. This is understood to allow for divining more specific details and calculating results based on a more focused evaluation of the procession of heavenly bodies.

While not well known in the west, Vedic astrology has begun to capture more attention outside of India over the last few decades. Part of this has been due to the increased interest in Eastern religion among persons in the West.

At the same time, persons who are devoted to astrology in general have begun to consider study of the Vedic tradition to be a means of tapping into a whole new concept of how to employ the process. Without a doubt, people will be hearing more about this ancient form of astrology in the years to come.

Using Astrology to Save Astronauts' Lives

2008-08-30T03:35:00.000-07:00

Millions of astrologers around the world know that Saturn brings limitations and Jupiter brings success. Uranus brings technological advancements. (trines & sextiles are good, squares & oppositions are bad, conjunctions vary with planets). Just have a look at some of the following dates:-

4th Oct 1957: Sun and Jupiter sextile Uranus.
Sputnik I launched successfully.

3rd Nov 1957: Sun square Uranus
Sputnik II launched successfully but the dog, Laika, died after a week in orbit.

12th Apr 1961: Sun and Venus trine Uranus
First human in space, Yuri Gargarin, launches successfully.

20 Feb 1962: Sun having just opposed Uranus
Successful but there was an unexpected electronic malfunction with the heat shield warning system (Uranus rules electrical equipment).

15 May 1963: The exception: Sun square Saturn
Several things went wrong with the Project Gemini trip.
Gordon Cooper's space-suit persistently overheated.
The water supply system failed.
He felt dehydrated and dizzy.

The automatic steering refused to work and had to be operated manually.
(Note: These are all typical Saturn-related problems!)

22 Jul 1969: Jupiter exactly conjunct Uranus: First humans on the Moon
Mission successful, a giant leap for mankind. Is this beginning to form a pattern?

So, the lesson seems to be to attempt rocket launches when Uranus is favorably aspected to give the expedition the maximum chance of success.

Attract a Scorpio Easily and Quickly

2008-08-22T04:16:00.000-07:00

To be attractive to a scorpio, you must first realize that they want to be the one to secure you. So playing hard to get in this instance, is a perfect technique you can use with a scorpio. Being seductive, as well as mysterious will only ensure their want of you every second of every day.
Another important thing to note when trying to attract a scorpio, do not think they will loudly proclaim their love for you. They are much deeper than that. They will come up to you at random times, and whisper their love for you in your ears with their bright intelligence.

Scorpios can use their eyes to see your sincerity. Do not attempt to get a scoprio only for a sexual relationship. They will see through what you are doing and you will only be frustrated. A scorpio will never share the secrets that have been confided in them to you.

Don't ever expect them too.
Scorpio are well worth the effort you put in, as the relationship could lead to incredibly real and lasting relationship. Don't be afraid to put yourself out their for a scorpio. They are incredible loving people. Good luck in your quest to attract a scorpio!

Value of an Astrology Birth Chart

2008-08-14T11:05:00.000-07:00

An Astrology birth chart is something meant for predicting your future. Whether you believe it or not, there is a grain of truth in all these talk about birth signs and horoscopes. I wasn’t a believer until recently, when some strange events happened to show me that actually my horoscope has indeed predicted, to a great extent, the consequences that ensued!

I started to search for more information about astrology birth charts, and I soon became huddled with information. I also decided to make my personal astrology birth chart, just to take a look and see if things were similar. The astrology birth chart is done with the personal information about the time of birth, date, place and location of birth.

You can have your astrology birth chart drawn in a format that is easy to comprehend. Although each specific civilizations devised its own astrology birth chart based on the celestial chart as seen from that specific region, there is a lot of sense making things in European and Chinese birth charts. It just depends on the perspective you choose to look through. You can find a meaning in both astrology birth charts, and even gain some important information about yourself from analyzing them.

Astrology birth charts are different according to which astrology system they are related. Chinese and oriental charts bring different meaning, European charts have another hidden treasure for you. It just depends on your personal preference: you may believe in both of them, as long as you find something to learn from them, it doesn’t matter whether you consider yourself a Leo or a Rat.Astrology birth charts cannot tell you your precise future, but they can give you some advice and can show you deeper levels of your personality. By just reading them you can get insight about hidden characteristics in your soul, and can gain better understanding of yourself.

Astrology - Fact or Fiction You Decide

2008-07-03T10:00:00.002-07:00

In the defining sense astrology is the teaching of the stars and many people will tell you that it led to people studying astronomy even more. In today's world though astrology is the study of the position of the sun, moon, and planets in relation to events and how they unfold in someone's life. Probability is one of the main things that astrologers use to make a forecast and they rely on it very heavily. Just as we do when we make predictions about the weather or anything else in our everyday lives, In today's world we seem to love to know the unknown and this fascination has us wondering is this stuff fact or fiction.

As a kid you would look up to the stars and just sit at utter amazement, this is what many people think about astrology it's amazing while others have an not so glowing review of it. I don't think there really are too many people who can say they have never looked at their horoscope. This tells me that there is some demand for it or it wouldn't be here. It's a complex debate that seems to get bigger every year.

According to many people astrology is a basic road map of your lives and how they may turn out. Others believe it's just something to get people to believe something that just aren't true, one thing is for sure both sides have valid points and neither side wants to budge on the point. Let's take both sides of the issue first. The nonbeliever say it's used to foster a false hope in something that isn't going to happen and it lets people down when things just don't come true. Money also plays an issue into this as million's dollars are spent on astrology products yearly and many people are obviously offended by that others aren't. Then we have the believers who will cite you case after case of predictions that have come true.

Astrology - The First Science

2008-06-25T03:46:00.000-07:00

Astrology soon became an incredibly complex practice. By 2000 B.C., the magi of Mesopotamia believed that everything in the universe was connected. Besides studying the stars, magi's looked for omens in the weather, predicted the future by using the liver & intestines of animals. They also believed that they were able to hear the words of trees, dogs, cats & insects.

Astrology was used to explore the position of Earth & other heavenly bodies, long before other sciences came along. Astrology & astronomy were considered one science in the ancient times. Astrologers were thought of as the best educated people, they understood; math, astronomy, spiritual symbols and mystic meanings, psychology, and human nature.

Astrology was taught in colleges until the 1600's, it was at this time that "rational science" took over. Most astrologer, today are still well-educated & have degrees in many different fields. Most frequently astrologers have been trained in psychology and counseling. They also have in-depth knowledge in astrology & a great deal if spiritual understanding.

In astrology, the connections between the signs & parts of the body hold together the cosmos, as the way the body parts hold together the human body in "rational science". Shakespeare's Hamlet summed it up when he said, "What a piece of work man is".

Astro Myths

2008-06-13T23:03:00.000-07:00

Astrology is as old as civilisation, and as its history shows, it incorporates many cultures and beliefs.Man has always looked to the stars for answers. We in the west have named the planets in our solar system after the gods of ancient Rome, whose counterparts are found in Greek mythology.People at that time believed the earth was flat, and in the centre was Mount Olympus from where the gods reigned. Their stories and exploits held fascination for the people then, as our current interest in the lives of our gods of society is so fascinating today.

Mercury - After the Sun and the Moon (of which there are many myths and beliefs), Mercury, the planet of communication is named after the Roman Mercury, messenger of the Gods (Hermes in Greek mythology).

Saturn - Saturn is the equivalent to the Greek Cronus, whose name is seen in crone, old woman, and chronological, and as such there is an association with time and old age.

Venus - In Roman mythology, Venus was the daughter of Jupiter and Dione, the Greek equivalent is Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. In other cultures, she has a more sinister role particularly in Mayan mythology.

Uranus - This planet is named after the sky god and he ruled over the starry night sky. In the beginning, there was Chaos and then there was earth, represented by Gaea.

Mars - Mars was the rebellious son of Jupiter and Juno, the equivalent of Ares, the father of Romulus and Remus and held in high regard by the Romans.

Neptune - Neptune is named after the god of the sea, the Greek equivalent being Poseidon.

Jupiter - Massive Jupiter was named after the king of the gods; his equivalent is Zeus in Greek mythology, but the Romans did not place so much emphasis on his amorous exploits.

Pluto - This is the furthest planet in our solar system and is named after the god of the underworld, Hades in Greek mythology. Although some believe it was named after Walt Disney's famous dog!

Why To Blame Astrology

2008-06-02T10:56:00.000-07:00

Well, I certainly believe in the science of astrology. And this does not mean that I adore astrology as if it is all in all in my life. For, I very well know that stars only impel, they do not compel.

The common question proposed by the school against astrology is- Do stars create your destiny? The answer to this question is- Yes and No. For, the answer depends upon the circumstances and many other variable factors.

In reality, you are the creator of your destiny, not the victim. Have a deep thought.
Your inner world and the outer world are absolutely interconnected. Let there be no doubt about it. If you are unable to understand this aspect, don't blame one and all for your ignorance.

Why persons born on the same day will not have identical future? Why, please investigate and find out. Don't blame astrology for that.

Astrology influences your works in a varied way. Just because you are unable to understand these subtle movements, these finer vibrations, don't again blame astrology. If at all, make sincere efforts to understand them.

The science of astrology was drafted by the ancient sages. These sages are the Realized Souls who have crossed the mind barrier. Once they reach there, they can speak nothing but truth. All your quarrels, differences of opinion are mind-level creations. How the science of astrology as perfected by them can give you wrong conclusions?

Sun square Moon

2008-05-22T23:35:00.000-07:00

Sun square Moon ... a stressing astrological aspect but with an extraordinary evolving potential.
The square aspect (or quadrature) between two planets shows us the existence of a strong internal conflict between the energies of the involved elements.
Any square to the Sun in a person chart is a very damaging aspect because the person primary of source of energy is blocked or is not in resonance with the other planet energy. His self-expression is blocked and the person is finding hard to express his potential.

The Sun-Moon square is even more stressing than any other square because of the direct connection between those two elements. If the Sun is our inner self, the conscient , the primary resource of energy the Moon represents the subconscient, our emotions.

A square between this two elements show us the presence of a blockaje between our conscient side, our will and our emotions or subconscient. The person with this aspect tends to be permanent unhappy and nothing that is doing bring her peace and happiness. He(she) is trapped in a situation that seems without exit point: when he is decided to do something in a conscient manner knowing that this action is the best possible way there is still a inner voice that is saying "No!No! Don't do it". The vice-versa is also aplicable: if the person is feeling something from the emotional point of view, the mental or the conscient of that person is denying it.

This situation may lead to distructive reactions and actions...the person may project his internal dillema to the outside world. He or she will start to think that this internal problem may be caused by external factors like friends, children, husband or wife. And this might be the start of the end....

You may feel happy and secured that in your chart you don't have this Moon-Sun square :)
But I got news for you...You may experience this aspect for the duration of a year .... in your Solar Return....if you have Sun-Moon square in a SR chart you will have to deal with this internal conflict.
I'm talking from experience. In my last Solar Return I had this aspect ...and it was no funny. Especially if you are not aware for of it from the first time. I lived with this aspect fro over 6 months until I've discovered the source of my stress.

Now back to your title...Surviving Sun-Moon square

The solution consist in becoming conscient about your self and about this inner conflict. First thing to do is to accept it and becoming aware that this is an internal not external conflict. Any unhappiness or stress is inside you...not in your outside world. Don't blame the others for something that is depending entirely on you.

The Real Secret of Vedic Astrology

2008-04-28T03:01:00.000-07:00

~ Nakshatra ~

In the Vedic (Hindu) system of Astrology, known in Sanskrit as Jyotish, the 27 constellations and not the 12 star-signs are the key to understanding celestial influences on our planet. These 27 constellations are known as the 27 Nakshatras, which are 300 to 400 light years away from earth. Based on a person's moon Nakshatra at the time of birth, Jyotish offers a most powerful predictive technique compared to other forms of astrology.

The term "Nakshatra," when broken down into its constituent parts: "naks" meaning "sky" and "shetra" meaning "region", translate into "Sky Map." Another translation is arrived at using a different dissection: "naksha" is "map" and "tara" is "star" and so Nakshatra is "Star Map." Both meanings clearly show that in the eyes of the ancient Vedic (Indian) seers the 27 Nakshatras (constellations) and not the 12 zodiacal star-signs map the sky.

It was the Moon that ancient people first looked to for calculating time and connecting to the stars. 'Nakshatras' is the name given to the constellations or mansions of the Moon, as the Moon resides in each of these constellations for one day.

The system of constellations is very ancient, dating back more than 5,000 years as they were referred to in the oldest Veda (Hindu's scripture). These lunar mansions appear in Chinese and Arabic astrology but have not received much attention in Western or European astrology. Each of the 27 Nakshatras consists of 13º and 20 minutes of the zodiac. Multiplying this length by 27 equals the entire zodiacal belt of 360 degrees.

The Nakshatras are classified in various ways, according to basic attribute, primary motivation (Kama - sensual desires; Artha - material desires; Dharma - living life based on spiritual principles; Moksha - liberation from birth and death), sex, caste, species and so on. They are particularly revealed by their presiding deities, ruling planets and their symbolic form.

This basal aeon has been complete from two cycles, such as the 10 adorable stems, i.e. the 5 elements in their yin and yang forms and the 12 alluvial branches, or the 12-year aeon of animals referred to as the Chinese zodiac. The Chinese beastly zodiac operates on a aeon of the moon in a ages and hours of the day. This zodiac refers to a authentic calendrical cycle. In this there are agnate constellations like those of the occidental zodiac. In age-old times there were astrologers who watched the sky for adorable symbols and again would adumbrate the future.

What If Astrology Really Worked?

2008-04-14T19:48:00.000-07:00

There is a large population which looks at todays forecast the first thing in the morning newspaper. Every one of them desires to find out about their day in the columns. Do the predictions come true? Let me talk about this. Most of the forecast columns have four to five predictions. Practically no body writes down all of them and compares the forecast with actual happening at the end of the day. What we do is to remember something of the forecast and if anything comes true, we are delighted. We forget that the other three to four forecasts did not come true.

That is human nature. We want to believe something and find ways to prove that right. This is what we do with forecasts. None of us wants to critically analyze them because we are subconsciously worried that they can prove to be largely false. We also like to hear about what good may happen. We are all tired with worries and anxieties that we want some assurance that things are not that bad and they will improve. Astrologers use that weakness very intelligently.

What if astrology really worked? What if every astrologer made absolutely correct predictions? Say my prediction for today is that I may meet today with an accident. I will believe that and not move out of the home at all. If my prediction says that i may get a windfall soon, I will stop all my work and begin buying Lottery tickets or waiting for a rich relative to die. But despite all the reading of the predictions, none of us acts like this. That proves that we do read the columns to feel good and give no value to them as far as real life is concerned. Some people may be exceptions to this, but this is true for a very large majority. The biggest fun of life is in unexpected happening. That continues.

Impacts Of Astrology

2008-03-07T08:44:00.000-08:00

Astrology is a type of divination based upon the idea that information about the future or about a person’s personality can be discovered through the examination of heavenly bodies such as stars, planets, the moon, comets etc. Astrology means the study that assumes and attempts to interpret the influence of heavenly bodies on human affairs. American Heritage Dictionary defines Astrology as the study of the positions and aspects of celestial bodies in the belief that they have an influence on the course of natural earthly occurrences and human affairs. The practice of astrology was prevalent in the ancient times too. Some of the well-known civilizations of the world used this field extensively. For example, the ancient Chinese civilization, the Egyptian civilization, the ancient Indian civilization, etc all practiced astrology at some point or the other. Arabs too practiced Astrology before the advent of Islam. The ancient Babylonians were probably the first to use Astrology. After that this science moved to countries like China and India. Greek astronomer Ptolemy was the first ever person to write a book on Astrology. He codified the sun sign astrology that we know today. Ptolemy tried to predict the positions of celestial bodies relative to each other and the earth through knowledge of their orbital motions. During his time, astrology was a part of astronomy. Later, astronomy became an exact science and Astrology remained a part of Theology. Planetary observation is the basis of Astrology.

History of Astrology is an important part of civilization and goes back to the early days of the human race. Apart from being centers of learning in medicine, Baghdad and Damascus were also known as centers of astrology and astronomy. Arabs were pioneers in astronomy before the advent of Islam. The Babylonians were the first to name the days of the week after the Sun, Moon, and planets. They were also the first to set out the twelve houses of the horoscope. Egypt was one of the most important places in the development of astrology. It is thought that some of the astrological signs of the zodiac originated in Egypt. Astrology was practiced even in the Vedic times in India. Astrology is one of the six disciplines of vedanga. The Hindus believe that human fortune or misfortune in life is due to karma, and karma is believed to be influenced by the movements of the planets. Among the Hindus, Brahmins are considered to be the best authorities on astrology. In Modern India too, astrology is extensively used to determine the future and improve life.Astrology is studied and practiced by many in India. It is regarded as vital in Indian culture. It is used to make decisions about marriage, starting of new business, and moving into a new house etc. Ancient Hindu Scriptures too gives a lot of importance to the various aspects of planetary motions and its effects on humans. Chinese astrology stresses on the five elements, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Even the zodiac signs used by them are also different from other forms of astrology. China was isolated from the western for a long time. That is why Chinese astrology was unknown to the western world. As Chinese astrology developed independently, a lot of difference can be seen between the western concepts of astrology and the Chinese version.

But the Chinese and Indian astrologers were in touch every now and then. Therefore, these two schools have a few things in common. In spite of the geographical isolation, there are a few surprising similarities between the western and the Chinese thoughts on astrology. It can only be termed as a coincidence. Even though the science of astrology was started and developed in the east, the west was never without its share of astrology. Recently, the trend of reading the daily horoscopes have caught up the western world. Suddenly, the western world has woken up to the possibility of knowing and improving their future with the use of astrology. More and more westerners have started to believe in the possibility of getting affected by the powerful planets and stars. Western scholars have included the subject of astrology in their research. Astrology was never scrutinized and researched ever before the way it has been done over the last few years. The astrologers in India claim that it is a scientific method to predict the future. They still club this field of study within the parameters of Hinduism. They say they can prove that astrological predictions are indeed scientific. Hindus almost unanimously believe in astrological predictions. In fact, religious Hindus cannot imagine life without Astrology. More and more Indians have started to build their houses according to the principles of Vastu Shashtra. This ancient Indian tradition is also governed by astrological implications. Hindus believe that the overall prosperity and benefits of the occupants is dependant on the Vastu principles while building the house.

A Foundation For Astrology

2008-02-25T06:20:00.000-08:00

Astrology studies the celestial bodies affects on humanity. In particular human fate, destiny, and personality were described by the celestial influences of the stars and planets. The roots of Astrology can be traced back to the first or second century BC. Many ancient cultures such as the Egyptians, Babylonians, and Chinese practiced forms of Astrology. Although, the methods of Astrological forecast differed slightly from culture to culture there still remained many fundamental similarities between them.

For example Chinese Astrology which evolved convergent to western Astrology had some major differences. The most fundamental difference being was the use of the moons 28 day cycle through the heavens. The earliest Chinese zodiac divided the lunar cycles into 4 groups each corresponding to a different season and 7 sub groups corresponding to specific “lunar mansions” in the season. The seasons were given animal based names for example: Spring=The Green Dragon of spring, summer=The Red Bird of Summer, fall=The White Tiger of autumn, and winter= The Black Tortoise of Winter.

Even though the use of the moon in Chinese Astrology opposed the use of the suns “movement” through the celestial bodies in the Babylonian and Egyptian disciplines some similarities still existed. These similarities included the use of elemental attributes assigned to the planets. For example Saturn= Earth, Mars=Fire, Mercury=Water, Venus=Metal, and Jupiter=Wood. In addition to this similarity the Chinese zodiac also has 12 signs like its western counterpart.

The western use of the sun as the foci for Astrological studies stemmed from the pre heliocentric model of the universe. In particular Egyptians may have contributed greatly to the earth centered model of the solar system. They believed a giant dung beetle pushed the sun through the sky like a giant piece of dung. This earth centered model of our solar system coincidentally seemed to arise around 1.5 BC right around the time the Egyptian and Babylonian studies of celestial objects began.

As you may suspect there are different schools of thought on Astrology. Moon signs, Sun Signs, and animal signs exist in these various schools. The popular horoscope used in your local newspaper for example is probably based on your sun sign. In contrast the Indian Vedic school of thought would be more concerned with your moon sign. While the Chinese system uses animal signs in their zodiac and is based on the twelve year Jovan cycle. Some even speculate that there may be correlation between Astrological studies and the Tarot deck.

The horoscope – where Internet come in?

2008-02-08T22:05:00.000-08:00

The possibility of reading the horoscope on the Internet has managed to create a true phenomenon. More and more people go online everyday and search for various websites hoping to discover interesting predictions. Planets influence us in a multitude of ways and the horoscope is the best way to understand the influence the stars have upon us.

There are many facts to be understood when it comes to zodiac signs and the features that apply to each sign. This is why it is for the best to read your horoscope from a website that presents accurate information and relies on the astral influence to come up with intriguing predictions. The horoscope is much more than finding out what will happen tomorrow; it is a way of understanding how the planets affect every decision we take and how we cannot deny that supreme power.

The concept of astrology has fascinated people since forever and many people are under the influence of the horoscope. There are many ways to interpret the things the horoscope says and we should learn how to use them to our advantage. Every element of the horoscope is distinct, has amazing qualities and flaws, lucky numbers, colors and days. All those things are not only exciting but also a lot of fun to read.

This sign is all about being creative and forward-moving. They do not like to waste time and they sure do not enjoy losing any opportunity. Their independent character is what helps them to succeed in anything they intend to do and their perseverance is sometimes perceived as coldness. Unfortunately as all the other signs, the Aquarius is famous for his insubordination and impracticality. In mythology, the sign of Aquarius is connected with Odysseus, a famous king in Ancient Greece.

When it comes to emotions, the sign of Pisces is the top leader. Water is the element that dominates the sign of Pisces and their personality is extremely influenced by this detail. Every online prediction will show that Pisces is the sign affected the most by emotions. They tend to be dreamy and sometimes impractical. Still, they manage to connect with the world to a different level and be more loving than any other sign.

Being so sensitive, the persons born in the sign of Pisces have the tendency to sometimes let their guard down and may end up getting hurt. The fact that they are very timid does not help very much and they may face some difficulties in their romantic life.

Know your Nakshatras

Know your Nakshatras

What is a Nakshatra?
Hindu astrology has a unique system of prediction that is based on the position of the moon in a given Nakshatra (constellation). There are twenty-seven nakshtras in all. Each one of them covers thirteen degrees and twenty minutes of the zodiac. Each Nakshatra is the head of a particular group of stars.

How does the Nakshatra affect you?
The zodiac is divided into 27 Nakshatra zones. Therefore, while traversing the zodiac, the Moon has to pass through one of the Nakshatra. When you were born, the Nakshatra in which the Moon was situated at that time is called your Janma Nakshatra (birth nakshatra). Accurate predictions can be made after ascertaining your Janma Nakshatra. You can exploit opportunities through proper interpretation of the Nakshatra. Similarly, you can ward off the negatives if you take corrective measures. Nakshatra are also associated with colours, symbols, deities, gemstones etc.

Nakshatras and the Three Worlds
According to Hindu mythology there are three worlds or 'Lokas': Swarga (Heaven) Loka, Prithvi (Earth) Loka and Mrityu or Narakha (Hell) Loka. The Nakshtras too are divided into three groups or 'Ganas'.

Jan 22’s Full Moon in Leo: a Wolf Moon

2008-01-23T00:33:00.000-08:00

Perhaps it’s my imagination or my eyesight, but astrology charts seem to ’show up’ better on my Stars Over Washington blog.

Well, that’s where I’ve posted Tuesday morning’s Full Moon 1Leo54 chart, aka a Wolf Moon because it occurs in January, and I’ve set the chart for Washington, DC where many wolves dwell and pace.

Remember the 2004 campaign’s Republican wolves in their TV ad? Strong and fearful image but I’m not sure they meant for it to look like GOP wolves were stalking America…but it did.

Plus, you know that some tribes considered the Wolf Moon to be in February–okay, whenever it was snowy and the wolves were hungry–guess it depended on your location and the seasonal lack of supplies.

All I know is: there are plenty of financial wolves at a lot of people’s too-flimsy doors just now, so I wish you (wherever you may be) safety from harm tonight.

Science and Astrology

2007-12-30T03:34:00.000-08:00

I was riding into town on Thursday with my neighbor, a microbiologist, who spent the whole trip lamenting how his computer network had gone down the day before, costing him untold time and frustration. "Mercury retrograde," I said with a shrug. "I know you don't believe in astrology, but this is exactly the kind of thing that happens when Mercury goes retrograde." He left the following day on a month-long trip to the other side of the world, with arrival and return through Heathrow. As much as I wish him a smooth and safe trip, I suspect he's going to encounter more than a few glitches with luggage, hotel reservations, and equipment. Not that this sort of thing would convince a committed skeptic, especially one who has the wrong idea of what astrology really is. I recently ran across this pretty good definition in a book by Nick Campion and Steve Eddy: Astrology rests on two premises. One is that, as the entire universe is interconnected, one part can be examined to shed light on another even when the connections are not apparent.
The other is that a certain time possesses a certain quality. Therefore, by looking at the patterns of the stars and planets at any one moment, the astrologer makes deductions about life on Earth at the corresponding times. We live in a universe governed, shaped, and ruled by possibilities and probabilities so it would be helpful if we had a map of all the possibilities.
It would be helpful to be able to see the all bends and curves, the contours of potential, to know what lies up ahead, what lies around the corner, and to know the best path to take.
It would be helpful to understand the shape of all possibilities well enough to answer profound but basic questions, such as, why does the possible realm place such limits on what happens in time? Why does it allow such wonder? Why is the probable world so beautiful and exquisitely systematic and orderly, rather than pure chaos? Where are probabilities guiding us? What is certain in the future, if anything?

How Does Feng Shui work?

2007-12-17T22:48:00.000-08:00

People often asked me to explain of how Feng Shui works. I told them that things just fall into their laps effortlessly. I have this strange experience to day. I would like to share with you to give you some in sight of how Feng Shui works.

I have been traveling and I have not been active in looking for opportunities in investments. As I have mentioned before in my previous article, my fountain had a leak. I had to turn off the water fountain. The business energy seemed to stop when the water fountain stopped.

My daughter bought me a Feng Shui water fountain as one of the Mother’s Day gifts. As soon as I turned the Feng Shui water fountain on, my telephone keeps ringing. Now I do not have a moment to rest. I am real busy and I am having fun.

The opportunities that are coming to me are just amazing. An investor with $ 12 million dollars cash asked me if I had bargain houses. The strange thing is that my friend told me that there is an investor is selling bargain houses. I am just in shock with this kind of encounter. I did not even have to open my mouth. Is this a coincidence of the miracle of Feng Shui ?

My friends told me that this is the magic of Feng Shui. I must say it is really simple of how Feng Shui can work for you. The important thing is that you need to have your house Feng Shui ready to be able to attract the right energy. Once it is done, opportunities look for you rather than you chase after them.

Google chart - an astrological analysis

2007-12-12T05:34:00.000-08:00

We all now about Google and their history. I've got the curiosity to look up at their chart and to try to identify the source(s) of their success.
I've find on their milestone page ( Google milestone - now it was removed) the exact date when Larry and Sergey opened the doors to Google:
September 7, 1998 in Menlo Park. Regarding the hour I think that using 11:00am we are closer enough to the exact date ...I assumed that they didn't wait until afternoon in order to launch their business. The chart raised for that time and place is the following:

So, we a have a Virgo (sun placement) Google company with a not so sure Scorpio Ascendant. If you think what is the main business of Google we can say that the Sun placed in Virgo is very appropriate: searching, analyzing, sorting, ordering...there all Virgo attributes. Also placement of Sun into 11th house , on cusp, show us that Google is project based company with a lot of initiatives. The Sun-Chiron sextile outline the originality and sometimes 'hybrid' ideas of the Google products and services.

- Uranus: the position of this planet is interesting , opposition with Mars and square with Chiron forming an T-Square. This configuration is very powerfull and it can be the motivation of creating new products and services. This energy released by T-square make Google very daring and always accepting new challanges. And in the same time is a source of new excellent ideas, projects and finally products and services. The originality (Chiron) is always pushed to the limits by the company desire to action (Mars) and by the inventivity of his own peoples (Uranus).
Until now we outlined why Google is doing what is doing and why is so original and inventive. But now let's try to find out why Google is so succesfully.

For Google the word popularity is not an unsual term. There is not internet user to not hear or use Google. Also Google is surprising by it's simplicity in use.
If we look into the G. chart we will observe another interesting thing: the positions of Moon and Jupiter. The first thing to observe is that both planets are placed in 5th house and are excellent aspected.

The Moon in a company chart outline the popularity, the employees and the products. Moon in 5th house and in Aries show us that Google employees are very creative and they are energetically (Aries) expressing it. It also show us that the Google products and services are 'loved' by their customers.

Jupiter on the other hand in 5th house emphasize all the creativity activities of the company and allows a better planning of resources. Being retrograde might seems not very good for the company. But it's not true. Jupiter retrograde helps Google not becoming too adventurous in starting new things and on making plans..it always making Google managers to make a step back and re-analyze and re-think previous planning. It allows them to have a different persepective on the same action plan, product or project.

The popularity of Google comes from the Moon excellent aspected and also from the position of Mars on Midheaven plus triple conjunction Venus-Mercury-NorthNode in 10th house. Mars in 10th house shows us that Google is a very active player on the market and it always searching new ways to expand and increase their reputation. Mars trine Moon is an excellent aspect which allows Google to have a strong support from their customers for each of their actions and initiative.

I will end here this analysis...just a small issue to remind: Why Google stocks failed this weeks? Just look at the present transits: Saturn in transit square natal Saturn. The first lesson for Google to learn...more to come. In a future post I will discuss about astrological financial aspects of Google.

Halloween Costumes: Unique Ideas

2007-12-07T05:23:00.000-08:00

There are 1001 columns out there purporting to find your most appropriate Halloween costume according to your Sun sign. We’re above such superficial approaches here (but we are definitely not above dressing up for Halloween!). Instead, consider dressing up according to the planet ruling your Ascendant, which is the planet symbolizing your ego. And isn’t Halloween all about letting your ego roam free of societal fetters?

As always, traditional sign rulers are used, modified by the sign in which the planet is placed. Thus:

Mars (rules Aries, Scorpio rising) – think masculine and macho, modified by the nature of the sign in which Mars is placed.

Mars in Taurus or Libra? Sexy police officer or something with lots of leather. Gigolo.

Mars in Cancer, Scorpio, or Pisces? Pirate, sailor, harpoon fisherman.

Mars in Aries? Soldier, gladiator, cowboy, or matador.

Mars in Gemini or Virgo? Trial lawyer, fencer, Formula One driver.

Mars in Leo can go as Napoleon, Caesar, Alexander, etc. Lion-tamer, Hercules, or big game hunter.

Mars in Sagittarius? Knight, jockey, or equestrian (horse optional, but recommended). Archer.

Mars in Capricorn or Aquarius is a power executive, Alpine mountaineer, or a buff construction worker.

This series will run occasionally over the next ten days or so. I’d love to hear your ideas for each planet, or an astrologically-appropriate outfit you have worn in the past. I have Mars in a water sign, and once went as a pirate (this was before I got into astrology).

Science versus Astrology

2007-11-29T17:51:00.000-08:00

Facts of Astrology
Basically, science’s rejection of astrology is based on ignorance. Science’s ignorance. When the astronomer Edmond Halley asked Sir Isaac Newton (essentially the “patron science of physics”) how he could possibly believe in astrology, Sir Isaac answered, “Because I have studied the matter, Sir. You have not.” And therein lies the crux of the matter. When Shakespeare made the comment of the “stars influencing our lives”, he too was mis- or un-informed. Astrology is about the planets of our solar system,
Another example of the ignorance of mainstream science is the oft-quoted astronomer’s notation of the Precession of the Equinoxes, and how this somehow makes astrology invalid. In fact, on the day this was being written, NPR’s “Star Date” had a brief, lucid explanation about the sun entering Ophiuchus -- what astronomers like to refer to as the 13th constellation of the Zodiac. In turns out that in 1930 astronomers had decided that the allegedly arbitrary division of the Zodiac into 12 equal segments of 30 degrees each was not in keeping with actual sizes of the constellations. Scorpio, for example, spans a much smaller section of sky than say Pisces. While the NPR report was well done and basically accurate, others have taken the position that because of the slow rotation of the Earth’s axis on a 25,920 year cycle, this ensures that the portion of the sky that was in Pisces four thousand years ago, is no longer the same portion of the sky now. And thus the constellations are not the same as in the days when astrology was born -- and what astrology calls Scorpio is no longer related to the constellation of Scorpio.
Thus the only effect of the Precession of the Equinoxes on astrology is to provide one point of evidence as to when astrology was first being developed -- i.e. several thousand years ago, when the time of year now allotted to Capricorn (following the winter solstice) was also the time when the sun had as a background of stars, the constellation Capricorn. Otherwise, this slow movement of the earth’s axis has no effect on astrology whatsoever. And accordingly, the Precession is an ally of Astrology -- not an enemy.

HOW CAN 12 ZODIAC SIGNS FIT EVERYONE?

2007-11-21T17:05:00.000-08:00

HOW CAN 12 ZODIAC SIGNS FIT EVERYONE?
Actually everyone is a combination of all twelve signs. Also the planets, sun and moon and their sky-sector locations must be factored in as well. The zodiac columns in newspapers and magazines are pretty generalized. They can be rather accurate for those born at sunrise because astrologers use a solar chart system to write those predictions. Many periodicals are guilty of recycling old years of predictions, so they can be very inaccurate besides... don't count on them.

WHY DOESN'T MY SUNSIGN FIT ME ?
We all start out with these same 34 factors but they get emphasized differently. The three main signs are the Sun Sign (how you act), the Moon Sign (how you feel) and the Rising Sign (how you look). These three different signs taken together give a 'thumbnail sketch’ of what a person is like. The rising sign in particular is often more accurate as to what a person thinks of him/herself. I often am asked "can you guess my sign?" but I hesitate - because what I am able to guess with any accuracy is their rising sign (how they appear), not their sun-sign (how they behave).

WHICH IS TRUE - FATE OR FREE-WILL ?
The idea of predicting the future both fascinates and frightens most of us. It is helpful to remember that predicting the future is a bit like trying to forecast the weather, with about as much room for error! The random element that can always change the future picture is Free Will. The reason that the future is relatively easy to predict is because Free Will is rarely exercised, because most of the choices and decisions we humans make are out of habit or half-conscious thinking.
We tend to think of the future as not having happened yet, because our concept of time is linear, that is, past-present-future. It seems to take "time" to get from point A to point B in this linear way of thinking. But I believe our understanding of time is limited; I like to think of time as being spherical. It's like we are in the center of a sphere (in a sense we are, the earth in the middle of all the stars and planets), and everything is really happening all around us at once, in the now. This would make future or past events accessible at any point from within the sphere (even though that's not easy to do), and could explain things like accurate prophesy or past-life recall. If it is correct that all time is happening at once, then it would mean that in any given moment we have a multitude of choices. If we have so many choices available to us in each moment, then Free Will is the rule rather than the exception. I believe it is important to become conscious of all our options rather than blindly accept our "fate". Astrology can be extremely helpful in pinpointing what some of those options might be.

WHY DO SCIENTISTS SAY ASTROLOGY IS ONE SIGN OFF?
The difference between a sign and a constellation is this: some constellations are huge - like Pisces and Virgo - and some are tiny like Aries which has only 3 bright stars. So to make things easier, we divide the constellation belt into 12 equal sections called signs. It so happened about 4,000 years ago, when Astrology came into use, that the Sign of Aries and the Constellation of Aries lined up perfectly. This is not so currently, as we now line up (at Springtime) to the constellation of Pisces, about to move into the constellation of Aquarius over the next 400 or so years. This is called Precession of the Equinoxes, and happens because of a backward wobble in the earth's turning axis. This wobble creates a 26,000 year cycle known as the Great Year, with 12 "months" called 'Ages' lasting about 2160 years each. To confuse us even further, the great-year "months" are named after the Zodiac Signs... you can see why this is all so difficult to grasp! There is much debate over which system - sign or constellation - to use for horoscopes. There is no easy or right answer to the dilemma either. I feel that the sign system works very well, perhaps because it follows the seasons more closely than the constellation system does. Some Astrologers use the constellation system (called sidereal) and it seems to work for them. So both ways work somehow!

HOW DOES ASTROLOGY WORK?

2007-11-21T16:50:00.000-08:00

Astrology works on the principle "As above, so below", that the macrocosm (sky) is reflected in the microcosm (earth). It is because of this that an atom looks suspiciously like a miniature solar system and a swirling hurricane like a galaxy - it is a similarity of pattern. At birth the first breath a baby takes fixes into its reality the particular sky-picture for that time and place, so a horoscope is drawn for that first moment. The star patterns in the sky can reflect the soul's blueprint for the baby.

Although some people think the planets exert some kind of magnetic pull on us to explain why Astrology works, I don't believe that is totally accurate. The more plausible explanation is that the planets are harmonically resonating with the earth and each other, thus creating vibration patterns (like a ripple effect) which earth-life responds to on an instinctual level.

There is an interesting story about a man named John Nelson, who worked for RCA back in the 1950's doing experiments on predicting radio-TV broadcast blackouts. He found that some of the classic Astrological aspects (conjunction, opposition and square) existed between Jupiter, Uranus, Mercury, Earth and Sun when blackouts would occur. By plotting them he could predict blackout areas with better than 92% accuracy and the computers of that day (which were as big as a whole city block) could only forecast with 85% accuracy. RCA ended up giving him his own department to continue this unusual work. Nowadays we have satellites to take care of the blackout problem. All of this just underscores how there may indeed be some kind of physical phenomenon at work to explain Astrology's effects, but it probably isn't magnetism.

WHAT IS ASTROLOGY GOOD FOR?

Did you know for instance that you can schedule elective surgery to minimize surgical complications by checking the moon sign? Or that you can plant gardens and crops to grow better at certain moon phases? Or that you can enhance chances for a good marriage by picking an appropriate wedding date by the stars?
"To everything there is a season, and a time and a purpose…"
Besides timing major events, Astrology is good for self-understanding. It is an excellent way to understand other loved ones too. You can even compare two charts for love compatibility, finding out what weakness and strengths you have as a couple. Many psychologists are taking up the study of Astrology to use in their counseling practice because it enables them to get past the games their patients use to sidestep painful self-examination. Astrology can also be used for seeing trends in the economy for the stock market. It can answer specific questions like "where will I find my lost keys" with a type of charting called Horary. In Mundane Astrology, political trends can be mapped. Locational Astrology helps find the best areas to live in to enhance career or love-life. Vocational Astrology can help you find an appropriate career path...

The fire element desires freedom.

Earth

The earth element needs security.

Air

The air element (like fire but with a different emphasis) desires freedom.

Water

The water element (like earth but with a different emphasis) needs security.

The Sun is now in Scorpio (2007 dates: 19:15 GMT 23 October - 16:50 GMT 22 November)

A great number of Scorpio's may be found in the helping professions ... because they are so keyed in to people's pain and the struggle of those trapped in their own darkness. But laziness and weakness Scorpio will not abide. ... What he fails to realise is that people are made differently, and not everyone has his capacity for ruthless self-discipline.

What is Astrology ?

2007-11-17T15:46:00.000-08:00

Astrology-
is a group of systems, traditions, and beliefs in which knowledge of the relative positions of celestial bodies and related details is held to be useful in understanding, interpreting, and organizing information about personality, human affairs, and other terrestrial matters. A practitioner of astrology is called an astrologer, or an astrologist. Numerous traditions and applications employing astrological concepts have arisen since its earliest recorded beginnings in the 2nd millennium BCE.[1] It has played a role in the shaping of culture, early astronomy, and other disciplines throughout history.

Historically, astrology and astronomy were often indistinguishable, with the desire for predictive and divinatory knowledge one of the primary motivating factors for astronomical observation. Astronomy began to diverge from astrology after a long period of gradual separation from the Middle Ages up until the 18th century, and has since distinguished itself as the scientific study of astronomical objects and phenomena, placing no significance on these phenomena's supposed astrological correlation.

Besides the most popular, natal, there are a few other types of astrology that are based on similar methods. Those are:

Astro-meteorology is predicting the weather, as well as some natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.
Agricultural astrology is the oldest branch. It was used to predict the best time to start the field work.
Medical astrology predicts potential health problems, and sets therapy for them.
Esoteric astrology is astrology of the soul. It uses natal charts to find out things about the spiritual conscience and spiritual development of a person.
Horary astrology finds an answer to any question according to the place and time the question was asked at (it is interesting how a question can't be asked twice, because then the answer is invalid!).
Electional astrology is a sub-class of horary astrology and it determines what time is best fitting to start some project, marriage, war and similar.
Mundane astrology makes horoscopes on the count when some country was "born", so it could predict national happenings and see their outcomes.
Astro-economics implements astrological principals to find answers to questions interesting to the financial world.
Synastry is a special branch of astrology that is comparing natal charts to find relations amongst people.
Psychological astrology uses its symbolic language to evaluate personality elements.
