Snake Oil/ What Is Astrology All About?

[Shirawilliam]

One of the most amusing follow upHoroscope Bracelet 2019questions I am asked when people inquire about what I do for a living, and I mention my expertise in interpreting Astrology charts, is: Oh, so you actually believe in all of that stuff? I am guessing that a few people are wondering if I must be either a little nutty or a very clever con artist. One thing that I can always tell about someone who feels this way about Astrology is that they have never had a competent astrologer interpret their natal chart. If this were the case, then the question of believing in Astrology would be similar to questioning the existence of air. I take no offense when I hear this type of perspective because the majority of what people know of Astrology is the crap they read in newspapers and magazines. Most publications that have an Astrology column use a lot of cute, witty statements to entertain their audience. If they are making predictions, the predictions are, at best, based on solar Astrology. Solar Astrology is based on the very limited idea that every Virgo or Cancer will have this experience today or this month. They are assuming that the individual is also the same Ascendent or rising sign. This being the case, I really understand why many people think Astrology is a bunch of baloney.

One of the first things one must understand about how Astrology works is through a recognition of the importance of birth date, time, and location. Astrologers look at the specific mathematical placement, angles, signs and house placements to determine your place and purpose in our solar system. Every individual birth is a unique cosmic event of importance that influences the world and is also influenced by the planets. Astrologers refer to all the major celestial bodies as planets even though the sun and moon are actually a star and satellite, respectively. Planets, signs and angles between them represent specific focuses and characteristics of the human psyche and personality. Your Astrology chart is a chosen (by the Higher Self) event that sets into motion behavioral characteristics, inclinations, challenges, and areas of primary interest in your life. The movement of the planets mirrors back the movement of our own internal emotional, physiological and physical evolution.

Most people are aware of what their Sun sign is. I hear people say things like; "Yeah I think I am an Aquarius, so basically I am very emotional and a water sign, whatever that means." This, like many other comments about Astrology is actually inaccurate. Aquarius is a fixed air sign, definitely not a water sign. The water signs are Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. Water signs are sensitive by nature. They are often nurturing, creative and intuitive. They absorb the qualities and energy of people around them. This can make them seem more emotional than other signs. They can be sentimental in a positive, loving way, but also sometimes too sentimental and overly sensitive.
