In the modern world, people are showing more and more interest in astrology, more and more often turn to it in everyday life. This article will discuss the influence of the planets on the signs of the zodiac, as well as the planets that enhance the features of the signs and are their patrons. In other words, the article is devoted to one of the most important aspects in astrology.
Planets in the signs of the zodiac
Astrology is closely related to the positions of the planets. They make up one whole, which has a strong indisputable influence on the fate of a person, on his actions. From what planet we were born, some traits of our character are especially dependent, they give us distinctive features, however, like the sign of the zodiac.
Each planet in turn is in one of the signs of the zodiac, giving it one or another specificity. Therefore, to determine the personality traits of a person, it is important to know the date and time of his birth - this allows you to calculate the planets in the signs of the zodiac, or, in other words, determine which house they are in (this is oftencalled in astrology).
What do astrologers consider?
In total, there are about 120 characteristics of a person - the position of 10 planets (as we remember, in astrology the Sun, Moon and planets of the solar system are considered planets), 12 signs and a little less than a hundred other, less significant aspects that also influence on the psychophysical state.
By the way, in addition to the well-known "solar" signs of the zodiac - that is, those in which the sun was on the day a person was born, there are also the so-called "lunar" signs that determine which sign was at that moment moon. It is most important for a woman to determine it using special tables, since the Moon has a rather strong effect on them. Moon signs are not as well known as they are much more difficult to identify.
Basic rules
There are several laws by which the planets influence the signs of the zodiac. Similar qualities of both of them are enhanced if they coincide. If the properties of the sign contradict the properties of the planet, then they either cancel each other out or change beyond recognition. Strong stars in this case will have a positive effect, while weak stars will have a negative one.
Patron planets
In addition, each sign of the zodiac has its own patron. This is a planet that has common characteristics with the sign, harmonizes with it, enhancing the positive qualities in a person and weakening the negative ones. because ofdiscrepancies in their number, some planets patronize several signs of the zodiac at once. Based on the change in the position and state of the luminaries, astrological forecasts are made.
The patron planets of the signs of the zodiac, as already mentioned, improve the affairs and emotional state of a person. The planet shows all the power because it is in "its own territory" when it enters the sign it patronizes.
Which planet favors your sign?
So, for example, the Sun takes care of the Lions, helping them in every possible way to achieve the indicated goals, giving them the necessary energy and will. It is especially good if the Sun is their planet of birth according to the sign of the zodiac. The moon is the patron saint of Cancers, sometimes giving them excessive sensitivity and vulnerability. The planet of Gemini and Virgo is Mercury, named after the deity of trade and travel. Thanks to her, these signs know how to win over a person and establish connections with the necessary people. Venus also governs two signs - Taurus and Libra. Named after the goddess of love, Venus teaches them this feeling, which they are capable of, perhaps, like no other sign of the zodiac, not only in relation to people, but also to everything beautiful in the world (however, to material well-being as well). Mars always gives Aries strength and energy to achieve victories, as well as perseverance and perseverance on the way to achieving the goal. Jupiter, which protects Sagittarians, makes them natural-born truth-seekers who keep their oaths and demand the same from others.
Capricorns, who are under the tutelage of Saturn, also adopt the best qualities from him - logic, craving for justice and order, as well as some conservatism. Uranus patronizes Aquarius, making them people with truly original and innovative thinking, in whose head there are always a lot of unusual ideas and projects. In addition, Uranus endows them with an iron will, allowing them to achieve their goals regardless of external circumstances. Neptune, in turn, stimulates in Pisces an interest in their inner world, in mysticism and romanticism, endowing them with increased sensitivity. And finally, the patron of Scorpios is Pluto, which enhances their dominance, inflexibility and the desire for new victories and achievements.
Thus, the "mood" of these planets in the signs of the zodiac has a strong influence on the state of our affairs, so it seems wise to keep an eye on our patrons.
By the way, in addition to the "rulers" of the zodiac sign, there are also other planets that have a strong influence on it, but not as strong as the patron - planets in ex altation. This is a position in which she manifests her qualities powerfully, but not in the same way as in the previous case.
Weak planets
We have already talked about the planets in the signs of the zodiac, which are located in their strong position, now we will touch on the opposite cases. The sign, which is a complete opposition to the one that the planet patronizes, is called in astrology the sign of exile. This is the weakest positionhere the qualities conditioned by the luminary are the least distinct, they are greatly distorted and transformed.
The opposite of ex altation is a debilitated planet. In this case, she is also unable to fully manifest the qualities inherent in her.
How to identify a planet?
In order to determine the planets in the signs of the zodiac by date, now there are special sites. In addition, you can always contact a professional astrologer. In both cases, the exact date and time of birth is taken into account - without this it is impossible to compile an accurate natal chart, which indicates the location of the planets at the time a person was born. This card, in principle, is quite enough to make up the psychological characteristics of a person, as well as his basic values, inclinations, and even his future destiny.
