What is Astrology? | Quick Astrology

The word Astrology is derived from two words, Astra, a star, and Logos, logic or reason. It is the study of logics shown by the position of stars and planets. Astrology affects by the state of our solar system at birth. The planets are considered to be the basic life-force, the equipment we live in, as well as the basis of our very substance. These planetary forces take various forms depending on their zodiac sign and how they relate to each other.

 Aspects made between the planets describe these relationships, the position of the planets in relation to the place of birth speaks of their manifestation in the areas of life represented by astrological houses.

By interpreting the roles of these players (planets) and their attributes (elements, signs and houses) and creating a synthesis, astrology is able to present a complete and comprehensive picture of the person and his potential based on the person's horoscope.

Person’s horoscope is his personal map, calculated using the date and time you were born from the perspective of your birth location. From that information, a circular, clock-shaped diagram emerges that shows where every planet, star and asteroid was located at the moment you made your debut.
