Astrology is a belief system that suggests a connection between the positions and movements of celestial bodies, such as planets and stars, and events on Earth, including human life and personality. Here are some basic concepts:
We are going to start with something simple: the zodiac sign. The sky is divided into 12 segments, each associated with a zodiac sign. which are: aries, taurus, gemini, cancer, leo, virgo, libra, scorpio, sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, and pisces. But those zodiac signs are not the same for every culture; in fact, The 12 signs that I mentioned are from western culture. Western culture believes that planets and other living bodies hold a certain influence over our daily lives. which is what we are going to cover today! if you are interested in the other cultures too, let me know.
The 12 zodiac signs are connected with elements, and for every element there is some characteristic associated. I will do my best to explain it as well as I can:
Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius are the elements of Fire, and they are defined as being very passionate, enthusiastic, tempermental, and spontaneous.
Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces are the elements of Water, and they are defined as being very sensitive, mysterious, imaginative, and emotional.
Capricorn, taurus, virgo are the elements of Earth, and they are defined as being very pratical, loyal, grounded, and reliable.
Libra, aquarius, and gemini are the elements of Air, and they are defined as being very social, observant, creative, and adventures.
THOSE SIGN DEVIDE THEMSELF IN ANOTHER THREE CATEGORIES.
Cardinals are the leaders, dynamic, initiators, action-oriented, direct, and assertive, and the signs associated with them are: aries, cancer, capricorn, and libra.
Fixed are the determined, resistant to change, great willpower, stable, reliable, inflexible, and the signs associated with them are: Leo, Scorpio, Taurus, Aquarius.
Mutable are the flexible, adaptable, communicative, changeable, resourceful, and the signs associated with them are: sagittarius, pisces, virgo, gemini.
NOW, we are going to talk about the planets and their ruling sign:
