Horoscope
An important element in astrology which interprets the character and
destiny of a person (and occasionally a larger group) according to the position of the
planets, usually at the time of the person's birth.
A horoscope is cast on the basis of
information given by the person, and it is then interpreted according to systematic
principles. The horoscope takes into account two main considerations: the circle of the 12
signs of the zodiac (Aries, Taurus, Gemini,
Cancer, Lee, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces) as they are
crossed by the sun, moon and planets at
different periods; and a circle of 12 'houses' around which the circle of the zodiac
turns.
Casting a horoscope is a complicated
procedure that depends upon getting data and times right. Relevant factors are the
position of sun, moon, planets and signs of the zodiac; the aspects of sun, moon and planets in relation to each
other; and the position of sun, moon, planets and signs of the zodiac against the circle
of 12 houses. Certain planets are thought to be
allied with certain activities and human propensities (for example Venus with love); the
12 houses are thought to be connected with certain areas of life, for example the second
house with money; and the aspects are thought to be associated with helpful or unhelpful
situations and possibilities. Horoscopes remain important in the East and are growing in
popular significance in the West despite scientific skepticism. See
Horary Astrology.
