A Thorough Horoscope Reading Can Tell You a lot About Yourself
Written by psychiclineadmin on March 31, 2009
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.
Analyzing relationships with Astrology Charts for Lovers
Written by psychiclineadmin on March 20, 2009
Free astrology charts can give you a picture of 2 personalities currently in a relationship. Lovers interested in finding out how compatible they are find them invaluable. This science is called synastry and it is probably the most popular use for horoscopes.
Analyze any type of relationship using this method including business partnerships, friendships or parents with children. It can be quite complex but fascinating comparisons can be made quite easily when dealing with romantic love which is the subject of this article.
Check out the long term future of your new relationship by comparing your charts. Your passionate affair with your lover is fantastic but when the lights come back on, attitudes can turn 180 degrees and become something very different. Or maybe you just want to find out about your husband (or wife).
The Ascendant and the Descendant
The ascendant will tell you how someone connects to the outside world with their personality. It is also known as your rising sign. This forms the first house cusp and to find your ideal partner look at the opposite sign in the 7th house cusp.
That old cliche “opposites attract” is probably a throw back to astrological interpretation when the match makers would consult horoscopes to ensure the compatibility of the couple. Some countries still have this cultural tendency.
Ideally a mirror image of your chart would be a good description of the perfect partner for you. Such tidiness seldom exists in real life relationships of course and the mixture of variables makes prediction difficult but you can get a snapshot of inclinations or probabilities.
Sun Sign Comparisons
Most people rush straight for sun sign comparisons with their free astrology charts because it seems so obvious. You can put a bit of faith into this type-casting but elemental considerations must also be taken into account. What is the overall count of elements in each chart? Are you a fire type or an air type?
Mars and Venus
These two planets play a major role in the mating game. Picture Mars chasing Venus who is squealing with delight as she looks back over her shoulder hoping to get caught. While these 2 planets can suit the chase they may not be the best planets for lasting relationships. They might be the reasons for desire though. Perpetuating romantic love throughout a relationship can certainly have lasting results.
The Moon
The emotional aspect is probably the most difficult area of a relationship. The moon denotes this eternal response as a feminine quality. On the other hand the sun depicts the male principle and these two placings are certainly worth some attention in your calculations. Comparing a female’s moon position to the male’s sun placement can throw a bit of light on long term considerations. There is a great deal of fascination in store for you with your free astrology charts.
Astral Worship – THE SACRED NUMBERS 7 AND 12
Written by psychiclineadmin on February 13, 2009
In reference to the planets, and the signs of the Zodiac, the numbers seven and twelve were recognized as sacred by the ancient Astrologers, and dedications were made to them in all kinds and sorts of forms. In the allegories, the genii of the planets were designated as spirits or messengers to the Supreme Deity, imaginarily enthroned above the firmament, which we find described in Revelations iv. 5, as “Seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven spirits of God;” and which were represented by lights burning in seven branched candlesticks set before the altars in the temples; the central light for the Sun; the Moon, Mercury and Venus on one side; and Mars, Jupiter and Saturn on the other. The seven branched candlesticks seen in all Catholic churches, and in some Protestant ones, are intended to represent the same planetary system.
Among the numerous dedications to the genii of the planets we mention the seven days of the week, the seven stories of the tower of Babylon, the seven gates of Thebes, the seven piped flute of Pan, the seven stringed lyre of Apollo, the seven books of fate, the book of seven seals, the seven castes into which the Egyptians and East Indians were divided, and the jubilee of seven times seven years. Among the dedications to the twelve signs we mention the twelve months of the year, the grand cycle of 12,000 years, the twelve altars of James, the twelve labors of Hercules, the twelve divisions of the Egyptian Labyrinth, the twelve shields of Mars, the twelve precious stones, ranged in threes to denote the seasons, in the breastplate of High Priest, the twelve foundations of the Sacred City, referred to in the Book of Revelation, the twelve sons of Jacob, the twelve tribes of Israel, and the twelve Disciples. In the Book of Revelation alone the number 7 is repeated twenty-four times, and the number 12 fourteen times.
