What is Astrology?

[Guest guest]

Astrology is the science that explores the action of celestial bodies

(namely the planets) cities, people and events. Astrology has its

place among the earliest records of human learning, starting in the

Mesopotamian region, then across to Egypt and onto Greece. In Tropical

Astrology the planets names are actually Roman, but has a Grecian

counterpart with a very similar myth.

 

Astrology deals with the angles between each of the planets and their

effect upon humanity. The signs are a way of dividing the heavens by a

band of what is called the Zodiac. The word Zodiac is a Greek word for

Zoo. The houses for the astrological chart is set up by the Natives or

Event Time of Birth or happening at a particular place in the world.

 

The signs are considered the field of action, the house the place and

he planets is the power of force.

 

Astrology is a philosophy that assists in explaning your life, through

your personality, along with showing you your career potential and

compatibility with others. The purpose of astrology is not to blame

the planets or our chart for what happens to us. On the contrary, it

is to learn about ourselves by their planetary indications.
