More About Astrology
Astrology is the ancient system that correlates life on Earth with the ever-changing patterns of the sky. It evolved over centuries as a key element in the development of human civilization. Observing the rising and setting of the star Sirius enabled the Egyptians to develop agriculture, while transits of Mercury and Venus were key market indicators for Babylonian commerce. Monarchs relied on astrology to guide affairs of state, generals to plan battles, physicians to cure the sick and philosophers to weigh the soul. Astrology is humanity's most enduring psychological tool, defining personality and delineating the shifting cycles of individual lives. Modern astrologers counsel people, providing uncanny insights into life purpose and personality, as well as a better understanding of current cycles and trends. Compatibility analysis for couples, families and co-workers is another valuable service of modern astrology. Today, individuals have access to computerized astrology reports that provide detailed personality analyses, compatibility reports and forecasts that can be delivered online. As the world's oldest and most detailed language for describing energy, Astrology continues to thrive and serve as a guide to self-awareness and an inspiring reminder of the connection between the cosmos and human consciousness.
What are Horoscopes?Horoscopes are forecasts for the twelve signs of the zodiac found online, in newspapers and magazines. They are based on the movement of the Sun, Moon and planets in relationship to the fixed positions of the signs, using the astrological principle of aspects, or meaningful angles. Horoscopes can be written for any period of time, but daily, weekly and monthly are the most common. They can also describe general trends or focus on a particular subject such as romance, career or health.While it is obvious that every person born under the same sign will not have the same experiences every day, a well-written horoscope describes potentials in a manner that is both meaningful and inspiring to the reader. Most important, perhaps, is that they remind us of our connection to the ever-changing cosmos. Modern horoscopes are based on the Sun's position (sign) on the date of one's birth. However, the traditional meaning of the word actually applies to a chart based on the hour (from the Greek "horo") of birth including the positions of the Sun, Moon and planets that is also called a natal chart. This is the foundation for more detailed and personal analyses provided by professional astrologers and Tarot.com's computer-generated reports. Check your Daily Horoscope now! |
