Quote of the Week:
At the moment, I am looking into astrology, which seems indispensable for a proper
understanding of mythology. There are strange and wondrous things in these lands
of darkness. Please, don't worry about my wanderings in these infinitudes. I shall
return laden with rich booty for our knowledge of the human psyche. -
The puzzling thing is that there is really a curious coincidence between astrological
and psychological facts, so that one can isolate time from the characteristics of
an individual, and also, one can deduce characteristics from a certain time. -
We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine,
we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born. Astrology
does not lay claim to anything more. -
Feature Article of the Week:
Why Don't I Fit Within My Zodiac Sign?
At a very young age, I was fascinated by astrology. My father, a complete skeptic, thought it was hogwash. He said that the daily forecasts are all written so vaguely that they could apply to anyone. He also claimed the descriptions of the various zodiac signs were so general that anyone in a blind study could pick up any of the descriptions and see themselves in it. I thought my dad was a brilliant man, so I tried out his theory and found him to be completely wrong. I would open the books that describe what various zodiac signs behave like and would randomly start reading to find some piece of myself in those descriptions... very few matched me at all. However, I did note that I did not perfectly match every single thing about my own sign. Why is that? Why is it that none of us perfectly matches our birth sign?
The reason is that the basic sun sign only tells one piece of who we are. There is a moon sign, a Mars sign, a Venus sign, etc. They each have a different purpose and cover different pieces of our potential personality profile. To use an analogy, think of each planet as a different aspect of the human psyche. There are the emotions, the drives, the loves, the spirituality, the communications, the intellect, etc. To illustrate this point, let us look at each zodiac sign as if it is a different culture. If I tell you that I met a woman from Brazil today, you have an immediate idea of what kind of person she is. Is every single woman from Brazil exactly the same? Of course not, but we can create a general idea in our minds as to what she is probably like. Now if I told you that this woman was born and raised in Brazil, looked Scandinavian, had the temper of an Irish woman, the religious beliefs of a Jewish woman, falls in love like a French woman, and has the independent streak of an American, you would have an even better idea of what type of woman I had just met.
This is similar to what happens when an astrologer pulls your chart and tells you that you have your moon in Virgo and your Mars in Aquarius. If one astrologer is talking to another and says, "Yeah, I pulled a chart today on a guy who had his Moon in Aries, Mars in Leo, and his Sun in Scorpio opposing his Saturn in Taurus," the other astrologer is going to immediately get a picture of the fellow just the same as you were able to picture the woman described using comparisons to various cultures.
In the same way that someone can be born in an area that geographically is on the border between two cultures, the same is true for astrology. Someone who was born and raised in America but always lived just near the Canadian border is likely to pick up on and feel at home with some of the Canadian philosophies and belief systems. Someone who grew up near the Mexican border will most likely have been influenced by their culture too. This happens when you have someone born on the cusp between two signs. They may technically be Leo, but show many behaviors of a Virgo too.
When scientists try to prove or disprove astrology as an accurate way to determine a person's psychological makeup, they are usually taking it from the approach that all Capricorn's are workaholics and depressed, all Scorpio's are revengeful and sex addicts, all Virgo's are anal about organizing and health conscious, etc. That is about as accurate as saying that all Irish are drunks, all German's are Nazi's, and all Japanese are suicidal over bad grades and failed businesses. The only way that science is going to be able to pull accurate statistics is if they start looking at the complexity of the pieces as a whole. Run studies to see if people who have a heavy Aries and/or Mars influence throughout their charts are more likely to be aggressive. But do not assume that every single person born during the season of Aries is necessarily aggressive.
As an example of my findings within my own family, my father is a Leo, my stepmother was a Sagittarius. They had a very fiery volatile relationship. Their son is a Leo. He fit in well with the two of them. They are all three fire signs. My sister is a Pisces, a water sign and I am a Capricorn, an earth sign. We never did fit in with the three of them. When I read the profiles of our sun signs, I could see the basics of my family dynamics unfolding. It was only natural that when we were really young, my sister crumbled into a puddle of tears every time things got chaotic and ugly, and that I would protect her and shield her from their fire that so deeply hurt her.
While reading the descriptions of other zodiac signs, I found large pieces of myself
within the descriptions of Aquarius and Libra. I was not nearly conservative enough
