Astrology has many applications. It can be used to answer questions, to forecast the weather, or to predict the outcome of elections. It can be used to pick an auspicious time for something, like starting a business or going on a journey. Astrology can also be used to give deep insight into the psychological make up of people. It can be used to help you understand your own nature and get the most out of your abilities and talents. The common factor to all these applications is man’s connection with the universe and its cycles and patterns as expressed in the planets, signs, houses and aspects.

 

Planets - including the Sun and Moon, represent different active energy sources, or psychological models of behavior. In astrology they take on a symbolic meaning as well as an actual presence.
 
Signs - divide the zodiac into 12 equal divisions of 30 degrees each. They are much like colored lenses through which the planets “see”. A planet will express its energy differently depending on which sign it is in.
 
Houses - are fields of experience. Both outer, material experiences and inner, psychological experiences. Houses are defined by the relationship between a particular location on earth and the solar system. Like the signs, there are also 12 houses, but they are not of equal size. Some can be small while others can be large, depending on the location the chart is set for.
 
Aspects - are the geometrical relationships between the planets within the circle of the zodiac. If one planet is a particular number of degrees away from another, it forms an ‘aspect’ with that planet.

 

All astrological knowledge is based on these four basic components. The “philosophical” side of astrology is based on the understanding that life exists as ongoing cycles and the cycles of an individual’s life correlate with the cycles of the cosmos. If we understand the principles of cosmic cycles it will help us to understand the principles of human cycles. Astrology has many applications because astrology describes life itself.
