On The Path of Astrology

by Joyce Luciano

The history of Astrology has been recorded as 75,000 years old with different schools of thought as to where it originated, some assert Egypt others Babylonia. It is the mother of modern day Astronomy. Constellations (signs), stars, calculations were all given to us by Astrology. The ancients calculated the distance between planets and their relationship to the inhabitants of earth. One often wonders how ancient societies observed the stars and were able to calculate their movement. Its been an enigma that can only make us wonder if ancient astronauts brought us this highly sophisticated science, teaching us that there is a pattern to our existence and we all have been given a master plan to instruct us how to live our lives to the fullest and to utilize our greatest abilities.

Astrology has been viewed as the work of the devil in the past and a lot of people today still believe its comprised of reading a daily horoscope. It isn't. Those predictions are quite general and based on the Sun Sign, which is the sign you were born under and on the motion of the Moon which moves into a different sign every 2 to 3 days. Since no two people are alike, no two Charts are alike. They are like a set of fingerprints oran imaginary camera taking a photo of the heavens at the exact moment of your birth.

A birth chart is called a Natal Chart and although you may have been born under the Sign of Gemini, you may find that very little of the Gemini personality is yours. Think of your Sign as the background of your personality with the real you being filtered through the Ascendant (Rising Sign), this is the real you and it's how you look, act,speak and the way you appear to the outer world. There are 12 Houses that comprise a Natal Chart and each one deals with a different aspect of your life. For instance, the 1st House is the Ascendant, the 2nd House is your finances, how you earn a living, and what you value. The 3rd House tells about your thinking and your mind (the learning process) at the same time it deals with the immediate neighborhood in which you live, while the 4th House deals directly with your Home and the end of a matter, also ruling your parents and so on and so forth.

So what can Astrology do for you? It can guide you toward choosing the correct mate, job, career, tell about your health, children, love life, sex life and your position in the world. It can tell us when we should watch for certain pitfalls, and the times in life when nothing seems to go right. For those of you in your late twenties and early thirties, is a time of lessons to be learned. This is when the planet Saturn returns back to the sign it occupied when you were born and occurs beginning age 29 until age 32. Some think of it as their moment of maturity as many times there are difficult circumstances, things just seem to be falling apart, and unpleasant endings. These transits are meant to make us stronger and they do! They should not be viewed with a sense of foreboding but with a feeling that we will be stronger and better when they are over.

Since August 1998 right up until the present time the planet Saturn is making its transit through the sign of Taurus. It also is opposing Scopio, squaring Leo and Aquarius. Its been a bit of a test filled time for those signs, others have felt it as their Rising Sign is involved. Endings have come, delays, dissappointment, dissatisfaction with life in general, a feeling that things will never go right again, almost like catching a train at the last minute where you almost get your hand on the rail, ready to jump on and at the last minute it slips away. But take heart, by springtime all these nagging annoyances, problems, troubles will fade away and you begin feeling like your old self again, and it will be a stronger and better one.

Next time watch for a discussion about ghosts and the spirit world. I would be interested to know what other topics you would like open for discussion such as, Atlantis, the Pyramids and utilizing their energies, Mu/Lemuria, Witchcraft, aliens/UFO's, Automatic Writing, Ouija Board, and Astral Travel.

Wishing all the best of Prosperity, Peace, Love and Good Health!
