What is Astrology?

Astrology is based on the movements of the Planets, Sun and Moon against the background of fixed stars, known as the Zodiac, as seen from Earth. Those positions at the time of an individual's birth form the Natal Birth Chart. The Planets and the Sun and Moon are constantly in motion. The correspondence between planetary movements and conditions in human life and society has been an area of study for centuries. "As above, so below" is a maxim that applies to Astrological influences. Astrology can give us information on identity, relationships, future trends, and family influences. Astrology is a highly useful tool with practical applications. Feel free to explore the many books and websites devoted to Astrology on your path to learning!
