Astrology Basics
There are a few astrology basics that you need to know about before you can cast an astrology chart. First off, though, let's define what an astrology chart is. To put it quite simply, your astrology chart is very much like a photograph of the heavens at the moment you took your very first breath in this world. It clearly shows where the planets (including the sun and the moon) were at that moment in time. In order to get started, there are a few astrology basics that you need to know about before you begin your journey.
Most of the time, this information can all be obtained from a person's birth certificate. Every single one of these astrology basics is required to cast an astrological chart that is truly accurate. Horoscope HousesThe time of birth is so essential because it literally decides the direction and tone of the astrology chart. This is because it determines which sign should be labeled as the ascendant or rising sign. The rising sign is the first house so the next sign would be the second house and so on. These are known as the horoscope houses. Each house has a huge influence on a different area of your life so it is very important to make sure that each of the houses is in the correct position.

For instance, your Sun Sign and its location is literally where your soul wants you to shine in this life. It is where your main focus is and where you feel most at home. Another good example is the planet Saturn. It is where you have neglected your duties and/or affairs in previous lifetimes and where you must work very hard to succeed. Astrology AspectsIn addition, quite a bit of the geometry that you learned back in high school will (finally) be used in analyzing your astrology chart. The angles that the various planets make to one another are known as an aspect. There are 5 major aspects and then several minor ones. These aspects allow an astrologer to more deeply penetrate into the psychology of an individual. For example, a square is defined by two planets making an angle of 90 degrees to one another. This aspect describes an intense dynamic between two planets that can inject a person with either frustration in the respective houses that the two planets reside in OR a fighting spirit to overcome the obstacles that are in this person's way. Astrological SignsThe zodiac is a celestial belt of stars that provides the backdrop to what appears from Earth to be the path of the sun around the Earth. A planet being in a certain astrological sign informs an astrologer as to the "style" that planet will behave in. All of this information is included in a birth chart reading as well. Putting it All TogetherAs you can see, all of these astrology basics are absolutely required in order to have a truly accurate astrology chart. When an astrologer translates the information in an astrology chart, he is interpreting the abundant symbolism of the planets, the signs they are in, the house they are in, and the angles between them. The combination of all of the information above gives an astrologer an immense amount of data that he must interpret using both his intellect and his intuition. There is definitely a ton of information to decipher, but with enough desire and practice, anyone can do it. Honest!
