Know yourself! And others too…
“Anyone can be a millionaire, but to become a billionaire, you need an astrologer”.
- John Pierpont Morgan
Astrology studies the position and movement of the stars, and through observation and interpretation, establishes relationships between what happens in heaven and what happens in the everyday lives of people. It is a powerful tool in the individual process of self-knowledge.
“Astrology is a language. If you understand this language, the sky speaks to you”.
- Dane Rudhyar
A birth chart is based on the calculation of planetary positions at birth of a person, place, or any establishment. Therefore, the birth chart is a picture of the sky, taken from the earth at the exact time of birth. At its center lies the person, place or building that has just been born.
This astrological natal chart or birth chart is the graph through which the cosmos helps us understand its energies, rhythms and particularly the way they operate for each individual.
The birth chart allows us to know who we are, discover our potential and talent as well as our weaknesses and frailties.
The chart consists of a circle called the zodiac, which is divided into twelve signs (Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces). When we have the exact birth data (date, time and place of birth); the zodiac is again divided into twelve sectors of variable size called Houses. Each house corresponds to a particular aspect of life: love, money, health, etc., and whose meaning will vary according to the signs and planets that occupy. Each position of the planets, in signs and in houses, as well as the distances in degrees between each of them gives us a lot of hints and information that allows us to know characteristics and peculiarities of the people around us; same that will be expressed during the course of their lives and somehow influence their behavior at a personal and social level.
By having all this information, we have the necessary knowledge to understand and deal with the events marked on our birth chart.
Knowing in advance situations that could influence our lives, and being acquainted of our potential for addressing them, allows us to achieve greater personal development, spiritual growth and, consequently, become the masters of our own destiny.
