About Astrology

Astrology is an ancient practice that explores the relationship between the positions of celestial
bodies and events on Earth. It dates back thousands of years, with roots in civilizations such as
Babylon, Greece, Egypt, and India. The fundamental principle of astrology is that the alignment
and movement of planets, stars, and other celestial bodies can influence human affairs and
natural phenomena.

Astrologers create charts called horoscopes to interpret these influences. A horoscope is a map
of the sky at a particular moment, usually the time of a person's birth. It shows the positions of
the Sun, Moon, planets, and other astrological points in relation to the twelve zodiac signs and
the twelve houses. Each of these components represents different aspects of life, such as
personality, emotions, relationships, and career.

The zodiac is divided into twelve signs, each associated with specific traits and tendencies.
These signs are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius,
Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. People born under each sign are thought to exhibit certain
characteristics influenced by the ruling planet of that sign and its element (fire, earth, air, or
water).

Astrology is not considered a science by the scientific community, as it lacks empirical evidence
and cannot be tested through scientific methods. However, it remains popular among many
people who find value in its insights for personal growth, understanding relationships, and
making decisions. Astrology is often seen as a tool for reflection and self-awareness rather than
a predictive science.

Modern astrology has evolved to include various branches, such as natal astrology, which
focuses on individual birth charts; mundane astrology, which examines world events; and horary
astrology, which answers specific questions. Despite its controversies, astrology continues to
captivate and provide guidance to millions worldwide, offering a unique lens through which to
view the complexities of life.
