For example, metal can contain water; water fosters the growth of trees which is wood; wood is the fuel for fire; fire burns out to leave ashes which return to the earth; and earth is compressed over time to create metal. So there is a cyclical and rationale approach for this balanced philosophy for the elements in Chinese Astrology.

These five elements are also paired with the Chinese animal in the zodiac. Or one could be born in the year of the “water dragon.” It is by understanding these subtleties that one can begin to truly grasp the implications of their birth year on their future fame, fortune, and destiny in Chinese Astrology readings.

One way to improve your odds is by going through astrology matching before getting married and by making sure that the person you want to share your life with is a best astrological match. The twelve astrology signs, commonly known as zodiac signs, are divided into four groups of three:

• The Fire Trio: Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius
• The Water Trio: Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces
• The Earth Trio: Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn
• The Air Trio: Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius

People who fall under the Fire trio for example, are totally different (and have completely different traits) with people who belong to the Water trio. Logic will dictate that fire is different (if not opposite to) from water just like air people are entirely different from earth folks.

So when people born under one of the four groups, they have with them certain qualities unique to their own group only. These qualities you will know through astrology matching. And when you know these unique qualities as influenced by their signs, you will be able to easily understand how and why couples are happy or otherwise – the incompatibility and unhappiness in their marriage could be a result of trying to put two incompatible elements together, forever.

To put it simply, people who are born under the domains of Fire and Water should not be involved with each other, matrimonially speaking. Although water will put out fire, fire has nothing but only a little effect upon water.

However, fire and earth work better as partners. The earth is cold and likes the benefits it gets from the vitalizing flame. But despite, one should still be careful since fire is a dominant element and wants results fast, and earth likes to take time. So before putting these two in marriage, it is still better to check with astrology matching experts so that they will know how to adjust with each other.

What on Earth is going on? And why does everybody suddenly have to work with a new version of the completely meaningless zodiac?

It seems to have started with this article in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune last weekend, in which one astronomer made some statements about the zodiac. Parke Kunkle is on the board of directors of the Minnesota Planetarium Society and teaches astronomy at Minneapolis Community and Technical College. Kunkle told the Star-Tribune the Earth’s relation to the sun had changed since the Babylonians first created the zodiac.

He said he was asked by the Star-Tribune to give them a few bits of information about astronomy, not realizing the article would become a huge discussion of astrology and the relationship between astronomy and astrology.
Says Kunkle:

If you take a toy top and spin it, it spins around an axis and that axis tends to point in different directions. It moves around. That’s what we call precession. So in Earth’s case, right now, Earth’s spin axis points towards Polaris, the North Star. But in 3000 BC, the Earth’s axis pointed towards a different star, Thuban. And that majestic motion takes about 26,000 years. so if you went from 3,000 B.C. and waited 26,000 years, you’d have the north star Thuban again.

This phenomenon was first noticed around 130 B.C. by a Greek astronomer, Hipparchus of Nicea. And as a result, if you actually look at what stars were positioned behind the sun on a particular date, that would have been very different 5,000 years ago than it would today. “We’re in a different constellation now and that is the typical sun sign,” based on the sun’s position when you were born.

Parke Kunkle didn’t tell the Star-Tribune that the zodiac ought to include 13 signs instead of 12 — especially since he doesn’t believe in astrology at all. He did mention that astronomers tend to reckon the sun’s position with 13 constellations instead of 12, and Ophiuchus is the 13th. But in the current astrology zodiac, there are just 12. “I just mentioned that it’s there, and astronomers actually count it… So if you actually watch the stars in the background of the sun, it actually does go through the constellation of Ophiuchus.”

Kunkle’s brief comments in the Star-Tribune article got morphed into “astronomer says the zodiac has to be revamped.” As various people have pointed out, this means your entire personality is different than what you originally believed it was — you might be flighty instead of hard-working, or fishy instead of scorpionesque. Taylor Swift is an Ophiuchus!

Such is the power that astronomers wield over all our fates.

This helps to give a lot of information that one can use by reading the horoscope signs carefully. All the symbols normally show a different side of a person’s characteristics. However, there are some that put more emphasis on a certain characteristics than others. This are usually based on the actual date that a person was born, the time it happened as well as the exact location. When the elements are combined the symbols can be used to come up with precise reports of a person’s character. This way, you can be able to compare your personality with that of the people you meet to know whether you are meant for each other or whether you can become good friends.

The zodiac signs are usually assembled into to number of elements that include fire, water, earth and air. When the elements are combined together it becomes very easy for love matching where one can finally get to meet the one to have a stable and happy future. There are numerous tests and games that are used for this purpose and they have helped very many people come together to form happy couples. These are usually done for free and one does not have to worry about spending a lot of money for the process.

Using the horoscope signs usually works when a professional photographer compares the elements that are related to your birth date and those of your partners to find out if they blend in well together. They usually use a chart that aids in the process to come up with real results. People who belong to the Leo, Sagittarius and Aries are normally enthusiastic and have strong will power. Libra, Aquarius and Gemini are normally critical thinkers. Scorpio, Pieces and Cancer represent empathy, emotions and internal thought.

When you ask someone about their sign, it is actually a question about the exact position of the sun in their horoscope. The sun goes through the whole chart and this means that it is easy to determine its exact course.

The horoscope has twelve signs and they usually match the 12 months that are found in a year. Each one is divided into 30 degrees and this means that the entire chart is 360 degrees. The symbols include Aries, Taurus, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Aquarius, Pisces, Scorpio, Libra, Capricorn and Sagittarius.

Each of the symbols that are included in the horoscope has some unique behavioral characteristics and each one of them has responses that can influence a particular circumstance. The symbols represent the various stations that you go through in your spiritual journey. As you grow spiritually, the symbols offer you a variety of rewards and challenges.

The symbols are also influenced by various elements. These elements include fire, earth, air and water. Fire refers to the energy and spirit. The air element refers to intellect and communication while the water element refers to emotions and nurture. The earth element refers to security and material things.

The elements are considered to be vital when it comes to existence. These are the forces that life depends on. Each symbol on the horoscope has a unique set of elements that it can be related to.

Apart from the elements, the symbols are also categorized according to their quality. These qualities include creative, determined and changeable. The qualities are used together with the elements to interpret your character. When used together, it can be a great way to let you know how you are going to respond in a particular situation.

Among various studies, astrology is a very important branch of Vedas. Something well known as vedanga jyotish comes into play when talking about jyotish Vedic astrology. It not only deals with prediction of future but also aims at guiding people all through their lives. It is a philosophy in itself.

Jyotish Vedic astrology not only means to predict future and give guide on materialistic issues like health, prosperity, relationships but also intend to show the path of righteousness and guide people on the paths of spiritualism. Thus it aims at transforming an individual for the better and also adds new values to his life.

This is no less than a science because it involves mathematics in studying the motions of planets and other celestial bodies on the basis of which man’s destiny is usually decided. Since 4000 years, many monks and hermits had taken the help of this study to guide people on the path of divine truth and peace all throughout their lives. There are many savants who choose this field of study to predict advice on the courses of actions that should be taken up by people to lead a good life.

The horoscopes that are built on the basis of this study, takes into account four things mainly. They are the time of birth, time zone of birth, date of birth and the coordinates of birth of any individual. Nowadays software programs have made the process of calculations quite smooth actually.

After taking the inputs all the four parameters are converted to local time of the place. This is done by converting first into time zone and then UTC, and lastly by taking into account the longitude of the place. After the completion of this process motions of planets, moon, sun rise as well as sun set timings of ascendants are noted. Usually such horoscope may show different results on the basis of different places and different time.

From Saturn to sun all extreme planets are taken into account along with the invisible planets which have a magical influence like rahu and ketu are also considered. Usually outer planets are neglected. This is because they were recent discoveries about which earlier sages and monks were not aware of. Western astrology does not have such a vast field of arena and neither are their methods so detailed and impeccable. So you can very well rely on the jyotish Vedic astrology as it is an age old science and very well researched.

Each newspaper, each magazine must includes daily, weakly, monthly or even yearly Horoscope description. To a great extent, Horoscope becomes more and more popular due to the increasing interest of media in it.

The same is the question here, whether we should believe on it or merely took it as a fun?

Well, let’s take look what actually it is. Horoscope is a very important branch of Astrology since centuries. Some 8000 BC; ancient sag discovered the initials of this branch of knowledge. They judge and analyzed the position and motion of the planets in different zodiacs and in the light of those facts set the rules and regulations of Horoscope. Greek scholars took great pain in devising the major influences and the consequences of planets on human life and draw their opinion in this regard.

All 12 zodiacs have assigned a symbol which indicates its position on sky. Similarly, the planets also bear some symbols through which the Astrologer read there position in a zodiac made their prediction in term of that relation.

During 18th and 19th centuries Astrology saw a little negligence. So many misconceptions and misunderstandings raised and their emerged two school of thoughts. One favors it and the other opposed it.

But since last few decades, (thanks to media perhaps) it took a new revival.

This time, people took more interest in personality or character description than forecasts or predictions of future. So, we can easily judge and analyze a particular person in view of Horoscope. That may be very helpful to create a better understanding among people belongs to different walks of life. The qualities and descriptions of Horoscope are almost constant and to a great length we can rely on them.

Chinese tradition is tied into the zodiac and they have each year named for a different animal. The year one is born in presumably indicates what one’s personality is and what one will become. There are also many different traditions connected with Yin or Yang. It is believed that there are five elements and a balance of yin and yang that can be beneficial to the person involved. Contrary to Western beliefs, in the Chinese Culture believe that things such as Earth and Metal, which are referred to with Yin or Yang, are an indication of energy, not matter.

Predicting the future or determining the meaning of current, future or past events has long been in use. Records show its existence over 3,000 years ago and it can be found in history books of ancient rulers.

Surprisingly, these horoscopes, when done by a talented person, do make accurate predictions.

In case of an individual horoscope, astrologers take the date of birth and project it to additional astrological information in order to study the character and predict future events.

Interesting is the fact that each planet or star possess their individual character that is in constant change depending on spatial connections with other planets and stars at an analyzed moment of time.

Taking into account that all cosmic objects are associated with each other by means of countless links, these celestial bodies produce their particular influence on the newborn. In visual horoscope the heavens usually correspond to a circle separated into 12 segments known as houses. The houses correspond to various areas of human existence, such as prosperity, health, family life, work, career.
