Astrology Forecasts and Resources. All Zodiac Signs Profiles
Author: Patrick Haney
We are releasing Astrologio, an e-book that can educate anyone that is curious about astrology or simply wants something interesting to read. We will also be including a free transit report with every purchase, e-mailed to you at no extra cost. Also, if you contribute literature to Astromaze or if you buy the e-book, when we eventually release a physical book, stemming from Astrologio, the price will be reduced for you. If you would like up to date information, bookmark our homepage.
Astrology (Greek: astron, “constellation, star”; and -logia, “the study of”) is a group of systems, traditions, and beliefs which hold that the relative positions of celestial bodies and related details can provide useful information about personality, human affairs, and other terrestrial matters. A practitioner of astrology is called an astrologer or an astrologist. Numerous traditions and applications employing astrological concepts have arisen since its earliest recorded beginnings in the 3rd millennium BC.
Our first e-book release has been finalized, and you can now buy it for $4.00 or if you wish to buy just one part (The Island or The Apostles of Astrology), each one is $2. If you decide to purchase, you will also be given for free a high quality natal chart as determined by your birth details in PDF format.
Those of you who have contributed literature, poetry, or short stories to Astromaze at this page will receive the Astrologio e-book for free, as a token of our appreciation for your contributions. Any follow up contributions will be rewarded with more free services/products. The contributions will also serve as ideas for a future literature item, or these short stories (or other literature) will be featured in a book in the future.
The zodiac profiles are complete with them being updated periodically. The planet profiles (along with retrograde info) are complete as well. You can use the resources Astromaze provides to educate yourself on how to read your own astrology as a hobby or to find out more in-depth astrological info on yourself.The ‘Zodiac’ denotes an annual cycle of twelve stations or “signs” along the ecliptic, the apparent path of the Sun across the heavens, dividing the ecliptic into twelve equal zones of celestial longitude. As such, the zodiac is a celestial coordinate system, more precisely an ecliptic coordinate system, taking the ecliptic as the origin of latitude, and the position of the sun at vernal equinox as the origin of longitude.
The ascendant, or rising sign, is the zodiacal sign and degree that was ascending on the eastern horizon at the specific time and location of an event or of a birth. The ascendant zodiac sign approximately determines your natural instincts and outside appearance that we express to the world. The ascendant is also concerned with how a person has learned to present him or herself to the world, especially in public and in impersonal situations. In some circumstances, it can therefore function as a shield or mask to guard a person’s real nature – in other words the ‘defense mechanism’ every person has to cope with unfamiliar or uncomfortable situations. The ascendant also has a strong bearing on a person’s physical appearance and overall health. Most astrologers believe that the Rising Sign exerts an influence equal to or more powerful than the Sun and Moon.
To ancient astrologers the planets represented the will of the gods and their direct influence upon human affairs. To modern astrologers the planets represent basic drives or impulses in the human psyche. These drives express themselves a) with different qualities through the twelve signs of the zodiac, and b) in different spheres of life through the twelve houses. How the planets manifest themselves also depends on the aspects (or angles) that they form with each other in the sky as seen from Earth.
