The earliest recorded origins of astrology were in the third millennium
BCE. It has been present and a part of human culture ever since. Even in
today's time, people use it in the form of horoscopes, which are
popularly read in magazines and newspapers. Astrology is Latin and comes
from the word "astrologia", which means astronomy.
One of the mottos of astrology is "as above, so below". This
means that the events of the heavens tell us a lot about what is going
on in our own lives. It is the study of relationships and patterns that
take place in the heavens. The four earth elements also play a big role
in the study of astrology.
The planets represent the "moving part" of astrology. They show which properties of the zodiac are created within us. They act like a filter through which energies of the zodiac signs are concentrated in us. In today's astrology, we know ten planets: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. The asteroids Vesta, Juno, Ceres, Pallas, and the small platenoid Chiron are also taken for interpretation. Lilith is a point on the orbit that the moon travels around the earth. This has also become an important interpretative factor.
