Astrology is an ancient belief system centered around the positions and movements of celestial bodies such as planets and stars. It suggests that these celestial bodies exert an influence on human lives. According to astrology, each planet represents a specific energy, and their positions and movements in the sky at the time of a person’s birth are thought to influence their personality, behavior, and destiny.
The study of astrology involves creating birth charts, also known as horoscopes, which map the positions of celestial bodies at the time of an individual’s birth. These birth charts are analyzed by astrologers to make predictions about various aspects of a person’s life, including relationships, career, health, and more.
Astrology divides the sky into twelve sections called zodiac signs, each associated with specific personality traits and characteristics. The positions of planets within these signs are believed to affect individuals differently, depending on their birth details.
There are various branches of astrology, including Western astrology, Vedic astrology, Chinese astrology, and others, each with its own methods and interpretations. Western astrology, for example, is based on the tropical zodiac, while Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac.
While astrology is often regarded as a pseudoscience by skeptics, many people around the world believe in its principles and consult astrologers for guidance in making life decisions. Whether seen as a science, an art, or a form of spirituality, astrology continues to fascinate and influence people’s lives across cultures and generations.
