A Thorough Horoscope Reading Can Tell You a lot About Yourself

Like gravity, the pull of the sun, moon, and planets have a strong
effect on anyone’s life. A person skilled at horoscope reading can
offer valuable insight and cogent advice to anyone who comes to him or her seeking insight.
The first step in casting a horoscope is discovering the time and date of your birth. You must obtain specific information about the event, either from a long form birth certificate or, if necessary, from a relative. Your date of birth determines your sun sign.
As the sun moves through the zodiac, it appears in various houses or signs, spending a month in each one. Each house has its sign, and also a ruling god or goddess (who symbolizes eternal qualities) an element, and a nature which can be either fixed, cardinal, or mutable.
Thus Libra, for example, is ruled by Venus, goddess of love. Its element is air. Its nature is cardinal, meaning this house is situated where the sun, having wandered to the extreme of the zodiacal band, turns back to continue to traverse the zodiac once more. Because of this turning, the cardinal quality is sometimes called angularity.
The rising sign is the sign that was at the horizon at the time of the client’s birth. In horoscope reading, if a person was born at dawn, their rising sign is the same as their sun sign. If they were born at sunset, then their rising sign is opposite to their sun sign, the way Aries is opposite Libra in the Zodiac. Persons born at noon or midnight (sun time) will find that their rising sign is at a forty five degree angle to their sun sign in the zodiac. For a Libra these signs are Cancer and Capricorn.
Your moon sign is more difficult to calculate, because of the perceived irregularity of the moon’s path through the zodiac. However, it is possible to calculate it, or have it calculated, on line. These are the big three, the sun sign, the moon sign, and the rising sign. A double or triple intensifies the qualities of your sign, whether good or bad.
In general, your sun sign is your essence, the real you. Your moon sign is your emotional side, the way you react to life and love. Your rising sign is the face you show the world and the way you get things done. So as you can see, it is possible to learn a lot about yourself from your horoscope.
