When you have a full understanding of everything that makes up astrology and horoscopes, your newfound knowledge has a way of influencing your life and helping you know more about yourself.
Astrology has become quite popular all over the world, so if you know nothing about astrology, you might just be the only one that's left out of all its benefits. But if you've always wanted to learn about horoscopes and astrology, then this article is your chance to learn everything you've wanted to know.
So what is astrology?
Astrology is the study of how celestial activities, like the positions of the stars and planets, influence human affairs and earthly events. Those who carry out this study and practice it are called astrologers
These earthly events could be related to your relationship, career and overall well-being as humans wrote your horoscope. The most reliable information is written down by expert astrologers who explain how the celestial activities are influencing an individual based on the position of the planets when you were born.
Professional astrologers also use the movement and position of the planets to explain certain happenings, social trends and other occurrences. Also, astrology can help take a closer look at your whole essence or your relationship with other people according to your astrology(your birth chart). Charts are also used to get detailed information about the features and results of certain events like a marriage.
If you're studying astrology, each of the planets that we have all contributes and gives insight into your kind of personality and your life generally. For example, your sun gives information about your sense of self and identity.
Take a look at what each planet symbolises and how they affect our astrology.
Sun: The sun symbolizes self-identity, self-esteem, self-image and sense of self.
Moon: The moon symbolizes safety, security, values and intuition.
Mercury: This planet is considered the messenger planet because it deals with gathering information, communication and research.
Venus: This planet symbolises love, beauty, passions, relationships, pleasure art and money.
Mars: This planet symbolizes a man's desire to take action, his energy, sexual expression and courage.
Jupiter: This planet symbolises luck and abundance.
Saturn: This planet symbolizes rules, limitations, boundaries, and discipline.
Uranus: This planet symbolizes change, rebellion, breakthroughs, and sudden events.
Pluto: This planet symbolizes transformation, death, rebirth, and power.
Having explained what astrology means and how they affect and influence our activities, there are some additional lessons you should learn that can help you understand astrology better.
It moves through each of one of the signs on the wheel of the Zodiac for an average of 30 days and that period is known as that sign's solar season.
When you check a horoscope, the date you find below each sign commemorates the beginning and the end of those seasons. So, the only thing left for you to do is to search for which sign's solar season includes your birthday, and there you have your sun sign. The sun sign is mostly the sign people use to find their horoscope.
On the other hand, the moon and the water element contribute to and control the mood we usually relate to most Cancers. Familiarizing yourself with these features will give you more knowledge about your sign and personality. All your signs have something special about them.
Those with signs whose solar seasons start halfway through the regular seasons (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) are called fixed. The signs whose solar seasons are at the end of the seasons (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces) are called mutable.
You should note that the quality of your sign's element and planet influences and determines its behaviour, especially in the way the sign perceives and applies control.
Where cardinal signs would have performed better as natural leaders, fixed signs would prefer a laid down plan that they can easily carry out. And mutable signs are just willing to go with the vibe.
Fortunately, you can find all of this placement together on your birth chat, which is like a picture of the wheel of the Zodiac.
You can visit an astrologer to draw out your wheel of the zodiac and have it read or you could look up ways to do it yourself on the internet. Either way, you choose, you're bound to discover the information you had no idea about before.
When you have your chart read, you may discover that your chart has only one fire sign which is the sun sign. And that may be able to explain why you don't have the kind of temper that other Aries have.
Naturally, it is difficult to take in all of this information. It may still come as a shock to some people that they can get information about themselves from their Zodiac signs. So if you're just starting to learn about astrology, you should take it slow and steady. And also, pay utmost attention to your moon and rising signs as soon as you begin to understand your sun sign.
Also, your Mars sign plays the role of pointing out where your passion lies and what pisses you off. Then as a norm, Mercury, Venus and Mars will continue to affect your daily life. While the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) will greatly influence your abilities, subconscious and talents.
But in reality, anyone can come up with compatibility rules or theories based on what they've been through. If you're very interested in getting more information about your love life through astrology, then focus more on what Venus, Mars and the moon are saying.
These celestial bodies influence romantic feelings, actions, emotions, affections and sexuality. At the same time, you should note that their movement will never tell you specific details about your love life, however, it will only point you in the direction that you should take.
If you'd rather choose your sun sign regardless, then that's okay. At least, in the end, you've been able to gather basic knowledge about horoscopes and how celestial bodies affect our earthly activities.

What you need to know to understand your horoscope better
Lesson One: Your Sun Sign
It moves through each of one of the signs on the wheel of the Zodiac for an average of 30 days and that period is known as that sign's solar season.
When you check a horoscope, the date you find below each sign commemorates the beginning and the end of those seasons. So, the only thing left for you to do is to search for which sign's solar season includes your birthday, and there you have your sun sign. The sun sign is mostly the sign people use to find their horoscope.
Lesson Two: What Makes Your Sign Tick
On the other hand, the moon and the water element contribute to and control the mood we usually relate to most Cancers. Familiarizing yourself with these features will give you more knowledge about your sign and personality. All your signs have something special about them.
Lesson Three: It's All About Timing
Those with signs whose solar seasons start halfway through the regular seasons (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) are called fixed. The signs whose solar seasons are at the end of the seasons (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces) are called mutable.
You should note that the quality of your sign's element and planet influences and determines its behaviour, especially in the way the sign perceives and applies control.
Where cardinal signs would have performed better as natural leaders, fixed signs would prefer a laid down plan that they can easily carry out. And mutable signs are just willing to go with the vibe.
Lesson Four: Go Beyond The Solar
Fortunately, you can find all of this placement together on your birth chat, which is like a picture of the wheel of the Zodiac.
You can visit an astrologer to draw out your wheel of the zodiac and have it read or you could look up ways to do it yourself on the internet. Either way, you choose, you're bound to discover the information you had no idea about before.
When you have your chart read, you may discover that your chart has only one fire sign which is the sun sign. And that may be able to explain why you don't have the kind of temper that other Aries have.
Naturally, it is difficult to take in all of this information. It may still come as a shock to some people that they can get information about themselves from their Zodiac signs. So if you're just starting to learn about astrology, you should take it slow and steady. And also, pay utmost attention to your moon and rising signs as soon as you begin to understand your sun sign.
Lesson Five: Where You Feel The Planets Most
Also, your Mars sign plays the role of pointing out where your passion lies and what pisses you off. Then as a norm, Mercury, Venus and Mars will continue to affect your daily life. While the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) will greatly influence your abilities, subconscious and talents.
Lesson Six: Beware Of Compatibility "Rules"
But in reality, anyone can come up with compatibility rules or theories based on what they've been through. If you're very interested in getting more information about your love life through astrology, then focus more on what Venus, Mars and the moon are saying.
These celestial bodies influence romantic feelings, actions, emotions, affections and sexuality. At the same time, you should note that their movement will never tell you specific details about your love life, however, it will only point you in the direction that you should take.
Lesson Seven: Give It Time
If you'd rather choose your sun sign regardless, then that's okay. At least, in the end, you've been able to gather basic knowledge about horoscopes and how celestial bodies affect our earthly activities.
