Seduction Tips: The FIRE Signs

The constellations that astrologers have chosen to use in their interpretations of how the world works are divided into four groups: earth, air, water and fire. The sign that the sun is in at the time of a person's birth is known in the natal chart as their sun sign, and is considered the strongest defining feature of their personality. The three fire signs are Aries, Leo and Sagittarius -- if your thoughts are turning to romance with a man or woman from any of these three signs, we have some great tips for you!
Determining sun signs
You will need to know the time and date of their birth (as well as the place in the world) to determine their sun sign. You could get a personal astrology reading for them, or a love compatibility reading to start you off. In some cases just the birthday is sufficient.
Fire signs in general
These men and women have a lot of energy -- while opposites can attract (depending on your individual Mars and Venus signs), you will generally need to either tolerate, or have a lot of energy for love compatibility with fire signs! They can be unpredictable, and love freedom, being the center of attention and action.
Seduction tips for Aries
Both men and women born under Aries enjoy a good chase -- the back-and-forth pressure that doesn’t immediately lead to intensity in a relationship. They have a warrior's spirit, which you will need to match in order to live successfully with them! Sometimes they do love to be the hero or heroine of a situation, though ... only sometimes!
Seduction tips for Leos
Leo men and women like to feel that they are the center of attention. All the world is a stage, and they are the main actor, director, stage manager and producer. YOU are the audience! Good love compatibility arises with partners who are willing to make them feel like the most important person in the world. Appreciate their bodies -- they are quite proud people when it comes to their appearance, and never shame or embarrass them, even in jest.
Seduction tips for Sagittarius
Like a fire roaming wherever it chooses, Sagittarian men and women like to be free. This is as much figurative as it is literal -- you have to accept their prerogative to do what they like, when they like to have a strong love compatibility. These people are on the hunt for the meaning of life ... share their quest!

Quicksilver: Mercury in the Signs part 2

Mercury is one of the planets that we are most familiar with -- one of the oldest known to astrology, as it can be seen with the naked eye. For those that follow astrology, it governs communication styles, decision making, and the way that people process information. There are many positions of Mercury analyzed in the natal chart -- we have been examining how Mercury affects a personal astrology reading when it falls in a particular sign. You can check out Mercury in Aries through to Leo in our earlier post!

Mercury in Virgo
Virgo is a sign of immense attention to detail, great mental capacity and excellent organization -- and when Mercury appears in Virgo in a natal chart, it means that any communication will be thought out, articulate and carefully considered. These are very practical men and women who have trouble concentrating in the midst of distractions.
Mercury in Libra
Middle ground is important to those with Mercury in Libra in their personal astrology reading. They are very diplomatic ... but underneath all those pleasing words, you'll often find criticism thinly or thickly veiled!
Mercury in Scorpio
Scorpio is a sign of strength, fearlessness, confidence and passion. Mercury in Scorpio creates a communicator who is direct and whose passion for their point of view comes across. They are energetic and look for challenges; they can also be quite suspicious of other people intentions (usually unnecessarily).
Mercury in Sagittarius
Justice and freedom are important to those with Mercury in Sagittarius in their natal chart -- they will always seek fairness in a conversation, and defend the right to free speech vigorously. They are optimistic -- sometimes blindly, but often happily.
Mercury in Capricorn
These people tend to be authoritative, slow to come to decisions, and very well-organized in their thinking -- and also the way they communicate their thoughts. They are born skeptics, and biased towards practical solutions rather than emotional discussion.
Mercury in Aquarius
With this aspect of a natal chart, don’t be surprised if the person in question likes saying things just to shock others, or just because nobody else is saying it ... as little sense as that makes to others sometimes! They are intellectual souls, quick to understand issues and interested in the advancement of humankind.
Mercury in Pisces
Mercury in Pisces in a natal chart usually creates a person with a dreamy communication style -- they are great listeners, but indirect in expressing their own thoughts and with an emotional bias in their understanding of a situation.

Quicksilver: Mercury in the Signs, part 1

Mercury is the closest planet to the sun -- hot, gaseous, inhospitable. It is one of the easiest planets to see with the naked eye, along with Venus, Mars and Jupiter. In astrology, Mercury is the ruler of communication. Your relationship with information, your decision making style, and the way you talk to people is governed by the placement of Mercury in your natal chart, according to astrological principles. Today we are looking at what Mercury means when it pops up in the different signs of the zodiac, and how it might influence your overall personal astrological reading.
Mercury in Aries
People with Mercury in Aries tend to be direct in their communications, and are willing to make leadership decisions. In fact, they prefer making leadership decisions! They can come across as rude, but no offense is meant in most cases.
Mercury in Taurus
These people are placid, practical, and slow to arrive at decisions -- not because they are mentally lacking, but because they like to carefully process all the available information. They tend to inspire people to listen to them, and have practical and considered ideas.
Mercury in Gemini
Those with Mercury in Gemini exhibit the quick-witted, superficial, sociable style of Geminis in their communications. They have a broad, but not a deep knowledge, and while they learn quickly, they also become bored of particular topics quickly. These people are smooth talkers, and their humor can often be misinterpreted as deception. If you have Mercury in Gemini, you probably have a gift with words and an engaging communication style.
Mercury in Cancer
Cancer is a personal, sometimes secretive sign, intimately interested in self-preservation and protection -- they need that shell! If Mercury is in Cancer in your natal chart, you will most likely be reluctant to speak your mind, but have an excellent memory for conversations and events ... although this does tend to be colored by the emotions of the situation.
Mercury in Leo
Pride and a sense of drama are the hallmarks of a Mercury in Leo communication style. They are big-picture decision makers, definitely not detail oriented, and they use creativity to come to their decisions as well as in conveying their points of view. This natal chart configuration can also be stubborn when faced with disagreement, or be extremely sensitive to any mildly negative reactions to what they say.

Celebrity Natal Charts: George W. Bush

Our much maligned past president may have had some funny slips of the tongue in public and created many controversies ... but underneath all that, he is very much human! Today we venture into George W. Bush's natal chart, looking way back to when our nation's former leader came squealing out in the hospital and to what the planets were doing at that time.
George W. Bush was born just a couple of days after our nation's birthday -- his birthday was July 6, 1946, at 7:26 a.m. in New Haven, Connecticut. Here is a selection of his natal chart characteristics and their meanings.
Sun in Cancer
Some of the most telling characteristics of this planetary positioning that we recognize in George W. Bush include:
  • Cancer, the crab, has an innate need to protect itself from threats and stabilize its environment -- the hard crab shell means that remarkable self-defense systems are in place.
  • A strong attachment to home is a Cancer trait -- which could be interpreted as patriotism.
  • A tendency to respond to events and circumstances in the context of your feelings, which can seem vague to other people
Leo Ascendant, Aquarius Descendant
The ascendant in a natal chart is the side of George W. Bush that he shows to the world -- the descendant represents his inner self and mental life. Those with Leo on the ascendant usually have a generous personality that loves a bit of drama and is highly sociable. Leo ascendants often need to find some sort of power to feel that they can release their creative energies, which are vast -- I’d say he found enough power!
The Aquarian descendant in Bush's natal chart shows an underlying desire to fit into a larger society, and means that all that generosity and magnanimity is shadowed by a healthy dose of objectivity and rationality.
Mercury Square Midheaven
Interestingly, this positioning indicates the Bush may have communication troubles, both at work and at home. They could cause misery if left unsolved.
Venus in Leo
This aspect of the natal chart indicates that Bush's style in love is much like his general face for the world -- generous, sociable, creative and very loving. Drama is a theme, and seems to follow George W. Bush ... even be encouraged by him.

When Stars Collide Part 1: How Signs Combine in Love Compatibility Reports

Astrology uses a lot of terms which it has created specificly to use in the discipline of studying how stars affect people's personalities. Sometimes it can be a little difficult to get your head around! Today we are looking at the specific terms for how signs work together, especially in the context of a love compatibility report.
When you get a love compatibility report, you'll find out how each partner's Venus sign intersects with the other's Mars sign. You can either check online to find your Venus sign and Mars sign (there are many simple tables on the net that will tell you where particular planets were on your birth date and time ... providing you know it accurately!), or more usefully, have a personal natal chart made up. Having your own chart made up will tell you where every planet was at the minute of your birth, quickly and easily, and will also give you a context to understand that in (signs and planets don’t act alone in astrology). Once you know both yours and your partner's Venus and Mars signs, here is a detailed explanation of the terms used for expressing how they relate to each other: your Venus to their Mars, and your Mars to their Venus.
Trine signs
When two people's signs in love compatibility are trine, it is believed that their relations will feel easy, natural and essentially compatible. These two people express love in similar ways, so understand each other immediately. If either partner was involved in an unhappy relationship before their current one, the new partner will no doubt sympathize to the core with the other's feelings. Acceptance and harmony are the keywords for a relationship with trine Venus-Mars signs -- there will be no dizzying highs and terrifying lows, but there will be plenty of creamy centers ... life will be like a box of chocolates.
Conjunct signs
This means that your Venus sign is the same as your partner's Mars, or vice versa. As you can imagine, understanding is also a feature of this relationship, as well as instant recognition of the other person's feelings. But remember all those things that you hate about yourself? Sometimes they'll creep, ever so quietly, into your partner's expressions. You may need to step out of yourself at times to make things work in the love compatibility area.
Stay tuned for the next post on love compatibility for your Venus and Mars signs -- we'll check out what sextile, semi-sextile, inconjunct, opposite and square signs mean for you.

A review on retrogrades

Retrogrades are an important phenomenon that is poorly understood by many people, although the name is recognized by many. We recently gave you an introduction to retrogrades in the natal chart and in everyday life, looking at what a retrograde means in general. We are looking at the outermost four planets. Read on to find out what gets turned topsy-turvy when Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto look like they are going backwards!
Saturn in retrograde
Saturn is in retrograde for a good portion of the year -- four-and-half months at a time. If you have Saturn retrograde in your natal chart, you are likely to be in conflict with authority. The conflict can come from either direction -- you may feel that people use their power to abuse you, or you may have a tendency to mismanage your own authority. In general, during a Saturn retrograde event, the rules are questioned, but extra effort and contemplation is put into projects.
Uranus in retrograde
Uranus is known as the wild card among the planets of the solar system. In general, surprises are common and the unexpected is expected when Uranus is in retrograde. If your natal chart identifies that Uranus was in retrograde when you were born, your personality may be notoriously erratic, encompassing different extremes at different times.
Neptune in retrograde
The planet of illusion and make believe has more physical influence on our lives than we might expect, according to belief in astrology readings. A retrograde here tends to make logic secondary to the imagination -- this might foster great creativity or great disasters! A person with Neptune retrograde in their natal chart could have issues with drug and alcohol abuse (escapism and fantasy worlds), or may tend to become deeply involved in stories and games.
Pluto in retrograde
Pluto is the planet of the underworld -- power and personal mastery are associated with it. When it is in retrograde, the things which were buried come to the surface -- the underworld becomes the above world. Fresh starts are possible, and dead ends are encountered. When Pluto was in retrograde in your natal chart, the power aspect is the one which tends to surface. Extreme power and corruption may be features in your life - whether you are on the delivering or receiving end.

Retrogrades in the Natal Chart

The term Mercury in Retrograde has seeped quietly, but comprehensively, into popular culture in recent times. While Mercury is the most well known planet to retrograde (probably because it is one of those that is more visible with the naked eye), it certainly is not the only one to do so. Today we are looking at what happens when a planet is in retrograde in the natal chart, and the specific effects of various retrograde planets.

What does retrograde mean?
Astrologers and astronomers (before they had the benefit of telescopes) both noticed the phenomenon of planets that went retrograde. A planet will sometimes seem to stop, move backwards in the night sky for a period of time (relative to its normal motion), and then regain it's forward motion again. This phenomenon is an illusion, caused by the fact that either the planet, or Earth, completes its orbit faster than the other body. The apparent movement seems to slow down as they approach the same point in their circumference, go backwards while the Earth is passing, and then resume forward motion once the Earth is passed. However, astrologers continue to interpret the effects as if the planet actually was going backwards.
Effect in a chart
A person with a retrograde planet in their natal chart will have certain events in their life delayed due to this action, astrologers believe. The retrograde areas in a natal chart (for example, love if Venus is retrograde, communication if Mercury is retrograde) are usually areas of challenge for the person, but not necessarily weakness. In fact, because so much time is spent on these challenges, they may develop into solid strengths over time.
Retrograde effects in general
In some cases, it may also feel to the person in question that the areas of life the retrograde planet rules simply feel askew. This is probably why the retrograde Mercury has such an effect on our public consciousness; as the planet that rules communication, we notice mishaps and misunderstandings, fights and arguments on a grand scale until Mercury is travelling in its normal direction again.
Mercury: Rules communication -- expect misunderstandings when in retrograde. Goes into retrograde for around three weeks, three times a year.
Venus: Goes into retrograde for around six weeks every 18 months. Affects relationships.
Mars: Goes retrograde for about two and a half months every two years or so. Causes anger to turn inwards.
Jupiter: In retrograde for four months of every year! Said to force spiritual re-examination and questioning of values.
Don't fear a retrograde in a natal chart, or in everyday life for that matter. They bring a necessary balance to every aspect of our lives.

Celebrity Natal Charts: Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods is an icon for many across the world -- proof that great things can be achieved by those with ordinary lives, and proof that youth is no barrier to success. Today we are delving a little deeper into the planetary imprints of Tiger Woods' natal chart, seeing what makes the man tick in astrological terms.

Tiger Woods was born in Long Beach, California, at 10:50 p.m., on Tuesday, December 30, 1975.
Sun in Capricorn
The sun was in Capricorn at Tiger Woods' time of birth, making him goal-oriented, ambitious, and giving him a love of money, according to natal chart interpretation guidelines. Tradition is very important with this aspect of a chart, and there is almost no game more traditional than golf! Capricorns tend to use their skills in expedience to initiate a slow rise through the ranks of their chosen profession, and even in relationships. However, a false sense of pride or ego can mar success in these natal charts.
Sun in the Fourth House
Despite the sense of expediency that people with the Sun in Capricorn have, the combination of this with Capricorn in the Fourth house makes family and early relationships very important. This aspect of Tiger Woods natal chart means that inside, he is constantly searching for connections between his past and present life.
Virgo Ascendant, Pisces Descendant
The face that Tiger Woods shows to the World, his Ascendant, is Virgo -- detail oriented, perfectionist, tidy and very self confident. This self confidence could boost his false sense of ego that having the Sun in Capricorn creates. Tiger's perception of the world is mostly mentally based, rather than emotionally based or spiritually based. He is practical and logical.
The Piscean descendant in his natal chart, though, means that underneath all that practicality Tiger Woods definitely has a more spiritual side. The intuition of Pisces helps Tiger Woods understand people and their motivations quite well, and brings a tenderness to his relationships.
Mercury in Capricorn
This positioning in Tiger Woods natal chart creates an easy ability to concentrate and a naturally good memory. The attention to detail of this aspect extends the Virgo ascendant, and adds dignity and earnestness.

Celebrity Natal Charts -- Barack Obama

We are just getting to know the new U.S. president properly, seeing how he is behaving after close to a year in office and after facing some big challenges with the rationality of Jupiter itself, and the big-heartedness of a typical Leo! Barack Obama's birth time recently entered the public domain, and today we are looking at what his natal chart predicts for him and explains about him. We'll be looking at it mostly in terms of balances or comparative weights of the signs, elements, modes and houses.
Born: Aug 4 1961, 7:24 pm, AHST +10:00
Honolulu HI, 21°N18'25'', 157°W51'30''
Geocentric Tropical Zodiac
Sign balance in Obama's natal chart
Scores: Aries 0; Taurus 0; Gemini 3; Cancer 2; Leo 7; Virgo 3; Libra 0; Scorpio 1; Sagittarius 0; Capricorn 1; Aquarius 1; Pisces 0
Obviously the Leo sign is strongest for Barack -- born on August 4, he is a typical Leo. His natal chart shows that he will be self-confident, big hearted and a powerful leader. He may tend towards the dramatic, and will have to take care not to appear arrogant or vain.
These Leo qualities are tempered by the fact that he is also Virgo strong and Gemini strong, giving him a mix of agility and versatility, practicality and perfectionism.
Elemental balance in Obama's natal chart
Scores: Fire 7; Earth 4; Air 4; Water 3
Barack Obama's natal chart has a definite lean towards fire signs, indicating that he will be energetic, dynamic, spontaneous and adventurous. It is possible that he might lack reflective qualities -- hopefully the mass media will do that for him!
Mode balance in Obama's natal chart
Scores: Cardinal 3; Fixed 9; Mutable 6
Obama's chart is strong in fixed modes -- these occur in Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius and Taurus. He is motivated by adapting to internal forces, and will prefer stability and security. In some ways he'll be averse to change -- however, this quality should hopefully engender a sense of caution about his presidential activities.
House balance in Obama's natal chart
Scores: 1st 0; 2nd 0; 3rd 0; 4th 3; 5th 2; 6th 6; 7th 2; 8th 2; 9th 1; 10th 0; 11th 0; 12th 2
The sixth house is strongest in President Obama's natal chart, and like the strength in Leo, it indicates a practical attitude to life. Work, health and service are emphasized here. The combination of 4th house strength with 6th house strength means that Obama focuses on home and family, and approaches these areas of life with an innate practicality.

Horoscopes -- Getting to the Bottom of the Outer Planets

Astrologers and astronomers have had relatively little time to study the outer planets as opposed to the innermost planets. The outer regions of the solar system hold gas giants and large moons, and their physical characteristics have a strong correlation to their effect in a person'sastrological reading. Today we are getting back to basics, and looking at the physical characteristics of the four outermost planets, as well as what they govern under astrology principles.
Jupiter
Jupiter was named by the Romans after the King of the Gods -- the god of sky and thunder. He ruled over laws and social order in Roman mythology, and the planet itself is often seen to preside over the solar system in the same way. Physically, Jupiter can sometimes catch asteroids in its circle of gravity, and prevent them from potentially smashing into another planet. It is composed mostly of the two simplest elements, hydrogen and helium, but may have a rocky core of heavier elements. Through a telescope, its atmosphere is made up of different color bands.
In astrology, Jupiter spends almost a whole year in each sign of the zodiac. It is associated with growth, prosperity, good fortune. Education, and the higher principles of law and religion are also ruled by Jupiter.
Saturn
Saturn is the next furthest planet from the Sun, and its name comes from another Roman god which is equivalent to the Greek god Kronos, the father of Zeus. It is compositionally similar to Jupiter, made mostly of hydrogen and helium, and it is one of the most recognizable planets in the solar system due to the rings composed of ice and rock. It has 61 moons!
The crystallization of rocks and ice in its rings mean that astrologically, Saturn is associated with principles of crystallization and structures. It shares governance of ambition with Mars, but is also associated with boundaries and practicality.
Uranus
Uranus was the first planet discovered in modern history -- it was not recognized as a planet by early astronomers because it has a slow orbit and is relatively dim. It is mainly composed of hydrogen and helium but also has significant proportions of water as ice (said to be associated with intuition and invention). It is blue in color, and has a unique configuration among the planets because of an axis of rotaton that is tilted almost perfectly sideways.
Uranus is associated in astrological readings with individuality, being unconventional, discoveries, inventions and electricity. Anybody of people with progressive aims or ideals is said to be governed by the position of Uranus in the astrological chart. It co-rules the 7th house with Saturn.
Neptune
Neptune was named after the Roman god of the Sea, for its deep blue color, and like Uranus has a high proportion of water compared to the other gas giants. It has a higher internal heat than Uranus, so is slightly warmer despite being further from the Sun.
In astrological readings, Neptune's position is associated with illusion and confusion, but also with the positive qualities of idealism and compassion. Spirituality, the mass media, drugs, fantasy and psychic phenomena come under Neptune's sphere of influence.

Important Love Compatibility Factors in Your Astrological Reading

Love compatibility with regard to astrological signs is sort of like a giant cookbook of different recipes. Each partner has a given set of ingredients … some dishes that can be put together using the two sets of ingredients will be delicious. Some will make your tongue curdle and your stomach boil! Some will be unexpected, but be memorable long after they have actually gone. Today we're looking at the astrological factors which make two sets of ingredients, or natal chart factors, work together to make dishes that are all different, but equally delicious.
The Ascendant
The ascendant is an extremely important part of single astrological readings as well as love compatibility charts. Qualified astrologers will be able to predict areas of stress in a relationship when given two people's ascendants. The ascendant determines whether you will be initially attracted to one another, as it represents the face you show to the world, however is equally important in making a relationship lasting.
The Vertex
The point where a person's astrological reading shows the intersection of the ecliptic (the path of the sun), and the Prime Vertical is known as the vertex. The Vertex is often associated with fate and destiny, and if two vertices show strong interrelationships, a relationship often has a feeling of inevitability and the people being made for each other.
Sun/moon contacts
Relaitonships are all about supporting each other's differences, so when one partner's Sun finds the other partner's moon in a love compatibility chart, there is a strong sense of support in the relationship. This does not happen in every love compatibility reading.
Grand Trines
When a simple trine in one person's love compatibility chart is turned into a grand trine by the positioning of the planets in their partner's chart, it has potential to turn the relationship into a very special one. In some charts, the grand trine effect is reciprocated in both charts, whereas in some, the effect is only seen for one partner. This overlay of characteristics means there is a special bond between the two people.
Similarity in Nodes of the Moon
The moon is often associated with past lives, but can also be related to your personality and spirituality in this life. Where the Nodes of the Moon are similar in two people's love compatibility charts, it shows they have a similar approach to life, and the two people feel strongly that they need to be together.

Lunar Phases in Astrological Readings

The moon is the closest heavenly body to our planet, and in astrology, it is believed that it has an enormous effect on how our personality is expressed. The moon is considered a yin body. It is receptive, soft, appears at night time, and is constantly shifting and changing. Here we look at how the phase of the moon is generally thought to affect your personal astrological reading.
The phases of the moon are divided into three-and-a-half-day periods, which we see as phases of the moon. The waxing phase is when the amount of light reflected is increasing, the waning phase is when the amount of light reflected is decreasing. In order from new moon (where there is no sunlight reflected from the surface), to full and back to new, the phases of the lunar cycle recognized by astrology are:
  • New moon
  • Crescent moon
  • First quarter
  • Gibbous
  • Full moon
  • Disseminating (Gibbous on the waning side)
  • Last quarter
  • Balsamic (Crescent moon on the waning side)
New moon births astrological readings
People born under a new moon are thought to be intuitive, spontaneous, and to view life as a grand adventure. They respond intuitively, but can be self-involved.
Crescent births astrological readings
People born under a crescent moon can have lives characterized by struggles and breakthroughs. Emotional ties to the past are strong and common in these people, and they often live with their parents for longer than usual.
First quarter births astrological readings
These people love action and perform well in crises … not just in ordinary pressure situations, but in environments like the emergency room and in ambulances.
Gibbous births astrological readings
An innate desire for perfection and a dissatisfaction with the first, prima facie answer characterizes people born under a gibbous moon. Astrological readings often show that they make good apprentices and have sharp, analytical minds.
Full moon births astrological readings
People born under the full moon are idealists, who value nothing more than the relationships in their lives and can be quite religious.
Disseminating births astrological readings
Communication is the keyword of people born dutring the disseminating phase of the moon.
Last quarter births astrological readings
Last quarter births see their lives as a constant process of readjustment and correction. They are always striving to know themselves better - the phase is seen as symbolizing a crisis in consciousness, as opposed to the crisis in action which embodies the first quarter.
Balsamic births astrological readings
Closure, surrender and resolution are the keywords of people born under a balsamic moon. Astrologers believe they have psychic abilities, and that they are often visionaries.

Where Astrology and Quantum Physics Interact

On the face of it, astrology and quantum physics seem about as far from each other as you can possibly get. Quantum physicists study at university for years; astrologers can sometimes do their work by intuition. One is mostly said to deal with matter, while the other mostly deals with the mind. But they do have one important sector where the colors overlap … that is, they both astrology and quantum physics deal with types of energy and particles that we know are there, but have yet to explain.
What is quantum mechanics/physics?
If you are anything like I was for most of my early adulthood, quantum physics just meant really, really hard physics! Actually, quantum physics deals with subatomic particles -- the particles that Newton failed to describe or incorporate into his laws of classical physics. Quantum physics explains the wave/particle duality, the spin of a particle, the fact that we can never really be certain of the exact position and velocity of a particle, and that energy is a separate phenomenon to matter.
What is astrology?
Astrology, from the horoscope in the newspaper to highly personalized online astrology readings, recognizes (and interprets with highly variable degrees of accuracy, depending on personalization!) that energy is a phenomenon separate to matter, but that energy has an effect on matter. We also deal with the uncertainty principle (which in quantum physics refers to never really knowing the spin, velocity and position of a particle accurately), in that we can never accurately measure how two elements will interact with each other -- we can only describe each one accurately.
Online astrology readings recognize that every person was born at a different time and different place on the planet, and thus have a different cosmic imprint on their nature. In comparing this phenomenon to quantum physics, it is like seeing every individual as an element within the periodic table. Everyone is different than the other. They may have only minor differences in electrons, protons and neutrons, but when you put a heap of them together, they express that small difference in very visible ways! Even twins, with a relatively small difference in time of birth (and usually the same place!) can have very different astrological readings.
We are about to enter into the Age of Aquarius, or the age of energy … quantum physics is actually quite a good companion to astrology at this point in history!


Why Your Kids Need Astrology Even More Than You!

For many people, a personal astrological reading is like a form of psychotherapy. We get them to understand ourselves better, to learn to work within our limitations and celebrate our positives and to help guide us through decisions. But really, we're old enough to take care of ourselves … it's our kids that can really use that insight!
Children's accurate horoscopes can be a valuable tool. Imagine having an instant understanding of how your child will react to stressful situations, whether he or she can handle challenges or is best left to move at their own pace, what they see when they look at you (their parents), and which careers would best suit them. A carefully researched horoscope will include many things:
  • Your child's personality: Looking at the planets at your child's time of birth is a valuable guide to their personality
  • The way they relate to both their mother and father: Accurate horoscopes for children will usually include an assessment of what children see when they look at the parents, and what characteristics they have inherited from you. This section will be different for siblings, because it explores the dynamic between the parent and child, not simply the parent.
  • Their mental tendencies: Good astrological readings will tell you about your child's areas of interest and their attitude towards studying, which could be very valuable later on!
  • Their physical tendencies: Online astrology readings can also indicate strong and weak areas in your child's general health. Please note though, that they are not intended to be a substitute for medical advice.
Another valuable insight that these child's online astrology reports will give you is into the generational influences that he experiences. Parents obviously don't attend school with their kids, or constantly supervise their play, and some times the attitudes they bring home can seem inexplicable! Nature and nurture obviously both have roles to play in your child's upbringing, and this section of the report can be one of the most valuable for many parents. Again, this section can vary from child to child as every one takes different things away from the influences of their peers and television.
Another small but very important benefit of having your child's personal astrology reading done early in life is that you are much more likely to remember their birth time accurately!

What Does a Good Love Compatibility Report Contain?

If natal charts and personalized astrology reports can become long and complicated, then love compatibility charts can be an absolute maze! In this case, the whole is more than the sum of its parts -- you can't simply add two astrology charts together and get a love chart. They are intricate and very involved, just like relationships in real life. Free reports based on electronics and automated systems just can't cut it -- here's what you can expect from a love compatibility report by a quality astrology charter.
Personality and Motivation Comparison
Astrologers will generally look at the positions of the Sun, moon, Venus and Mars together, Venus and Pluto together, and Mars and Neptune together, and compare them between the two of you, to get an idea of how you interact with each other in a variety of ways. This part of the report will discuss themes like power, organization, practicality, sexuality and interests. However, the exact themes that appear here are highly driven by your individual charts.
The Attraction
Quality astrology charts for couples will also look at what attracts each of you to the other. It looks at the planetary aspects that are in harmony with each other, or complementary to each other, and the way they interact to draw you together. You will usually see notes in this section of your love compatibility report about how your planets oppose, trine, conjunct or square each other.
The relationship's destiny
Love compatibility reports can also conjecture about the outcome of the relationship when each person acts in a particular way, according to their chart. They can give you an idea of what you need to do to make the relationship a lasting one, and whether it will be happy if each person remains true to certain aspects of their astrology chart.
If the subjects of the love compatibility report live together, then every theme and idea within the report is exacerbated. A person who likes to spend lots of money, go out frequently and generally live the high life may be able to maintain a friendship with someone who is especially frugal … but when living together you can imagine the magnitude of the problem!
Sometimes statements within relationship astrology charts can seem to contradict each other, and in this case, it usually means that the two of you alternate your roles. Read your love compatibility report with a sense of trust in the process, and you will find plenty of good advice!

Difference Between Free Charts and Quality Astrology

Do a quick Google for "astrology chart" and you'll be bombarded with offers of free astrology charts. There are quite a few people who try these, get an inaccurate account of their preferences and personalities, and decide that astrology is hogwash. This is very frustrating for astrologers producing quality horoscopes! Your mother may have said to you (more than once, if she was anything like mine!) that you get what you pay for. If you pay nothing, you usually get nothing. Free astrology reports are based on automated systems and the mechanical action of databases -- quality ones that give an accurate picture of yourself and your future take time and training to create. What is the difference between a free astrology report and a quality horoscope?
Human judgment
Have you ever been frustrated by the voice-recognition systems that big companies are using to try to cut down on call center staff? If you've ever had to try and guess what answer a machine wants you to give, you'll understand why astrology by machine just doesn’t work. Anything outside their set parameters just slips by … and that small detail could make a big difference in your chart!
Natal charts are not only created by a set of rote characteristics, but by the interactions of these characteristics. Each house, ascendant and element does not stand alone, they all impact each other. Only humans can gauge the effects of one on the other.
Niche approach
Personalized services don’t attempt to be all things to all people, whereas the larger free services adopt a broad-brush approach. A personalized quality horoscope can tell you what really matters to you, without wasting your time, attention or energy on things that are superficial.
If a personal chart can quickly become complicated, a love compatibility chart is at least doubly so! It isn’t reasonable to expect a free report to be able to detect and interpret all the nuances of the zodiac system where two people are concerned. You and your partner probably have a hard enough time figuring each other out -- what makes you think a machine could do it?
No dog readings!
Free reports are often used for light entertainment, to create reports for dogs and cats, or even for cars. Astrology just isn’t applicable here, and quality astrology services don't provide things like this.
