Zodiac signs ad their meaning

Posted: Mar 11, 2011 |Comments: 0 |

The twelve signs are represented by twelve equal sectors of 30 ° each in the chart. The sign in which the sun is in our chart is our sun sign , popularly known as the zodiac sign.

The sun crosses the tropical zodiac in the opposite direction clockwise. Part of the point 0 aries about march 21, when he starts the new astrological year. 0 aries corresponds to the spring equinox (beginning of autumn in the southern hemisphere) and is also called the vernal point. Occurs at the point of intersection between the ecliptic and celestial ecuador, from the sun in its apparent movement north of the southern hemisphere.

So called because formerly the march equinox occurred in the constellation of aries, but currently does not match the zodiac constellations and this is due to a phenomenon called precession of the equinoxes, which causes the vernal point moves slowly in a movement backward in the ecliptic retrograde about 50.29''per year.

The fundamental difference between the sidereal and tropical zodiac, is that the former is based on the constellations while the second is governed by the seasons. So that the zero degree of aries coincides with the equinox in the tropical zodiac, but not stellar, beginning where he starts the constellation of Aries.

After aries, the sun passes through Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries coming back and closing the loop.

Polarities | Modalities | Elements

The two polarities

Positive polarity signs are Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius.

Negative polarity signs are Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces.

The three modes

The signs are grouped by type resulting in three groups of four signs each, known as four times the signs zodiac. Each sign is assigned an attribute as follows:

Cardinal signs:

Are those that coincide with the start of the season. If the march equinox marks the 0 aries, the equinocco september marks the point opposite, 0 Libra. similarly, the June solstice corresponds to 0 Cancer and December solstice at 0 Capricorn.

    Birth Chart: When we create a birth chart, the date and location help us decide where the planets are and tells us how the zodiac signs and the planets line up. What we do not know is where the houses are. A chart without a birth time is as if someone threw away the inner circle and just sprinkled the planets on the bigger wheel with the zodiac signs. This is what you would call a solar chart rather than a natal chart.

    June will begin on the crest of a lunar eclipse under the umbrella of Venus' retrograde and an approaching clash of outer planets. Needless to say, June could be a rather tough month, from beginning to end. There could be financial problems, relationship problems, and personal losses. Tread lightly this month, and for Heaven's sake, leave the big sticks in the woods. Conflicts could turn into disasters.

    In general, Pisces is misunderstood and ends up as a loner. They love people and have a deep desire to connect on a spiritual soul-to-soul level, but they end up protecting themselves behind walls for their own safety. People think they are soft, but in reality, they are quite stubborn and from birth to grave, they remain true to themselves. You can argue until you are blue in the face but you can't beat your Pisces child into submission.

    Aquarius children are ruled by the same planet that rules electricity and group activities. These kids are popular and funny. They are natural leaders not because of wanting to lead but from a natural charisma that simply attracts followers. They are eccentric and pride themselves on being unique individuals. These are the kids who not only pull the household electronics apart just to see how they work but can also put them back together again.

    You don't raise a Capricorn child; they have no need of parenting in the classical sense. Capricorn children are little old kings who cannot quite remember where they are or where they have placed their crowns. Being a Capricorn child is like being a brilliant adult and having partial amnesia, you know that you know everything but you just cannot quite remember it at the moment.

    Libra Children: People often think of Libras as soft gentle loving souls who simply want to shop, dine by candlelight, and talk your ear off. The truth is that Libra's children are some of the kindest most diplomatic dictators you will ever meet. They fight for justice and will make sure that the underdog gets his day of glory. Libra is the personification of the concept ‘kill them with kindness' and, ‘honey attracts more than vinegar'.
