How to interpret your horoscope☯️

 Hi everyone👋🏼 Hope you’re doing well and staying safe👀

As we already left no stone unturned and learned some characteristics of zodiac signs, today we will inch forward to get acquainted with your birth chart📜

The terms “birth chart” and “horoscope” here are used interchangeably, although they are not precisely the same.

A horoscope is simply a map of the heavens—specifically the part of the heavens we call the zodiac👼🏼 A horoscope can be cast for any given point in time; for example, at the beginning of a new business enterprise. A birth chart is a horoscope for the moment of birth. When a person speaks about “my horoscope,” he or she means a map of the zodiac for his or her birth time✍🏼

Not too long ago, setting up a horoscope was a laborious process. Many complicated mathematical steps were involved and, by and large, people were dependent on professional astrologers to do the job. Happily, though, we are now living in the age of information—the computer has given everyone access to his/her complete, detailed, accurate natal chart😄

Just the birth data and within seconds you can obtain a chart for anyone😁

Making a chart itself is easy, but the interpretation is more difficult

The charts are filled with astrological details, and each of those dozens of details has meaning. Putting together all the confusing notations is a real art. This is similar to the process a doctor or therapist goes through when seeking a diagnosis. In addition to a deep knowledge of astrology, this synthesis requires keen observation, an understanding heart, insight, and something more - an "extrasensory" feeling, a flash of vision. And finding a good therapist, finding someone who can offer an interpretation that is sharp, insightful, compassionate, and revealing can be difficult.

But that doesn't mean you can't read a horoscope. You can - and you can do it with a few simple, informative exercises. This will give you simple tools to begin to outline the big picture of yourself. Start with your horoscope (yours is the most interesting). You will soon accumulate a lot of detailed information about your strengths and talents, likes, weaknesses, needs, and hidden intentions.

What is a birth chart? It is a diagram of the zodiac at the moment you were born. As explained earlier, you can think of it as a pictograph of you as a newborn baby, lying on the circle of Earth, looking all around you at the sky bubble that surrounds you🌞

Nowadays a horoscope is drawn as a circle, though in old astrology you will find horoscopes in the shape of a square. The circle is far easier to use and clearer to see at a glance:

Every horoscope is divided into twelve parts like a pie cut into twelve pieces:

Each of the twelve segments in a horoscope represents one of the houses of astrology, which will be described in the next post. 

The lines (which look like the spokes of the wheel) are known as the cusps of the houses. A cusp is a point at which a house begins.

The houses of a horoscope always follow the same pattern. The First House begins at the “nine o’clock” position. The houses then go counterclockwise around the wheel

of the horoscope. The Second House begins at the eight o’clock position. The Third House begins at the seven o’clock position, and so on through the twelve houses.

Here is what the houses look like pictured in a horoscope:

Generally, charts use symbols rather than words. 

If you are looking at a chart produced by a computer, you will see that the signs, planets, and aspects are indicated in symbols. 

The symbols (called glyphs) for each zodiac sign are:

The symbols for each planet are:

You will notice that a chart is made up of three

components: Planets, Signs, and Houses. These are the three tools of a birth chart.

Planets are the forces that act.

Signs represent how the planets act.

Houses represent where the planets act.
