What is the meaning of your horoscope?
A natal chart (also known as a birth chart) is an astronomical image of the stars based on the precise date, time, and location of your birth. We compute the location of each planet, as well as the sign of the zodiac and house it was in at the time of your birth, using NASA data.
What are your three telltale signs?
When most individuals think of astrology, their solar sign is often the first thing that comes to mind. After all, that’s the sign you’d check up when reading your horoscope or researching your cosmic compatibility with your crush. Understanding the differences between your sun, moon, and rising signs is a crucial place to start if you’re ready to delve deeper into your own astrology.
In astrology, your “big three signs” are your sun, moon, and rising sign.
Consider them your most important astrological data. These three signs are quite essential in your horoscope, and each is in charge of a different aspect of your personality and total self. While the sun represents your core self and the moon your inner self, you might consider your rising sign to be reflective of your outward self.
Even if you don’t believe in astrology, it’s just a matter of time before someone asks you for your big three, so now is the time to practice. Let’s go through the basic meanings and differences of the sun, moon, and rising signs so you may start looking into your birth chart and using astrology to your advantage. Continue reading to learn more about this crucial astrological trifecta.
Do you have all of the signs in your horoscope?
So, you’re undoubtedly aware of your Sun sign, as well as your Moon and Rising signs. Even if you don’t have any planets in your birth chart, you have every single zodiac sign.
Please bear with me: Your birth chart, which includes all 12 zodiac signs, is essentially a picture of the universe at the time you were born. Your Sun sign is the zodiac sign in which the Sun was when you were born. Every other planet, from Mercury to Pluto, is the same. Look at the sign each planet is in when reading your birth chart to learn more about the area of your life that planet governs. If your Mercury sign, which regulates communication, is in freewheeling Sagittarius, you may still have a tendency to tell it like it is or even put your foot in your mouth, even if you have a cautious Scorpio Sun.
Aries
Aries is born with the ability to lead. it’s the first sign of the zodiac, after all. This sign is noted for being brave, forthright, and competitive to an unhealthy degree. Aries, on the other hand, is a warm, caring, and trusting sign. Aries has a short fuse but never holds grudges.
Taurus
Taurus is a functional and affluent sign. This earth sign is intelligent and practical, but also enjoys the finer things in life. Taurus places a high importance on safety and security and is not hesitant to put in long hours. Another thing about Taurus is that it is a very obstinate zodiac sign.
Gemini
Gemini receives a lot of criticism, although it’s generally unjustified. This air sign is humorous, outgoing, fun, and adaptable, earning it the nickname “two-faced” (in reality, they’re just social butterflies who can match the enthusiasm of the group they’re in!). Communication is a strong suit for Gemini.
Cancer
Cancer is the zodiac’s first water sign, and it is empathetic, loving, and compassionate. This placement brings emotional intelligence and intuition. Cancer is a natural homebody, as symbolized by the crab, which carries its residence on its back.
Leo
Leo thrives in the limelight! Outgoing, playful, warm, and loyal, the fire sign is a good match for you. This zodiac sign is born to be a protector and leader. Although Leo has a bit of an ego, everyone loves this type of enthusiasm, therefore it’s well-deserved!
Virgo
Virgo energy is organized, practical, diligent, and analytical…but not dull! This earth sign is reserved at times, yet it is also faithful, honest, dedicated, supportive, and kind. As an earth sign, Virgo is also sensual, or sensual in the sense of being in touch with one’s senses.
Libra
Libra is all about balance, as represented by the scales. With a love for justice and fairness, this placement is diplomatic, peaceful, and adaptive. Libra is ruled by Venus and is associated with beauty and love.
Scorpio
Scorpio is a fiery sign associated with sex, death, and the occult. This is a strong, resilient, and restrained energy. Scorpio is an insightful and emotional water sign. Those feelings are sometimes veiled under a more guarded, threatening faade.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius is the sign of travel and philosophy, thus whomever has planets in this sign will have a lot of pleasure. This type of energy is also known for being direct, daring, spontaneous, and even a little flaky.
Capricorn
Capricorn is the zodiac’s chief executive officer. This zodiac sign is regarded for being powerful, hardworking, practical, and ambitious. It is concerned with respect, status, and safety. Cap, like fellow earth sign Virgo, is an earth sign with a sensuous component to it.
Aquarius
Aquarius is an air sign, not a water sign, and as such, it is cerebral, lively, and intelligent. This energy is bold, open-minded, charitable, and a little strange (or a lot eccentric). This symbol is frequently associated with science, technology, and humanitarianism.
Pisces
Pisces, the zodiac’s final sign, is a wise old soul. This water sign is recognized for its intuition, emotion, creativity, and dreamy outlook. Pisces is frequently associated with spirituality and compassion for others.
Do soulmates have birth charts that are similar?
What you may not realize is that when two soulmates’ birth charts are compared, they nearly always have certain features in common that reveal the nature of their relationship to a trained astrologer.
What is your ascension?
Your rising or ascendant is the sign that was ascending on the eastern horizon at the moment of your birth. It refers to the picture you put out into the world, or the mask you wear, and it provides insight into your abilities, talents, and tactics for navigating life. If you’ve ever felt like people don’t recognize you as your sun sign right away, it’s because they’re probably seeing your rising.
What are the signs of the moon?
Your moon sign is the zodiac sign in which the moon was at the time of your birth. It’s the soul of your identity, the hidden part of yourself that you may keep hidden from others (unlike your outwardly appearing sun sign), and it accounts for a significant portion of your emotional side.
What are the three major signs of the zodiac?
“I’m such a Virgo,” or “I could never date a Scorpio,” are undoubtedly phrases you’ve heard from friends. But what exactly does that imply? For a long time, astrology, or the use of planets and other celestial bodies to gain insight into events on Earth, was deemed quackery, but owing to a new generation of astrologers who are giving it a more feminist, psychological bent, it’s undergoing a revival. So, where do you begin with astrology? What are the most significant aspects of the Zodiac to understand? The main three: your sun sign, moon sign, and rising sign are a wonderful place to start.
Before we get into that, let’s take a step back and talk about your natal chart, or simply your chart. Your natal chart is a picture of the sky at the time of your birth. Everything in the sky was in a specific position when you slid out of your birthing parent’s womb, naked and slimy. Those placements, according to astrological theory, have an impact on your personality, passions, and strengths and weaknesses. It’s not so much that the planets did something to you at the time of your birth, according to current astrology. It’s not as if you were bombarded by gamma rays. Astrology, on the other hand, is a comprehensive approach to the universe: as above, so below. Everything, according to astrology, is intertwined in a web of connections and affinities. When you consider it from a spiritual standpoint, it’s actually rather lovely.
Your natal chart is a twelve-sectioned map of the heavens. (When you factor in something called housing, it’s actually divided into two groups of twelve, but we’ll get to that later.) Each segment symbolizes a Zodiac sign, with the sun, moon, and eight planets (aside from Earth) falling under each sign. If the sun was in Capricorn when you were born, for example, Capricorn is your solar sign.
Is it true that everyone’s birth chart contains all 12 signs?
I’m sure you can’t seem to get along with at least one zodiac sign, no matter how hard you try. You might even be guilty of believing the misconceptions about that sign, promising your pals that you’d never date a Scorpio (or any other sign) again. While there are certain signs with whom you will always connect and others with which you will not, did you know that all 12 zodiac signs, including those that irritate you, are represented in your birth chart? Everyone’s birth chart has every sign, element, and modality known to man, implying that you share their characteristics in some way.
A birth chart is made up of 12 astrological houses, and while there are a variety of systems for dividing the houses up, your birth chart will always include all of the signs, just as it will always include all of the houses. Though it may come as a shock, this suggests you have at least one sign in your astrological makeup with whom you always butt heads. Understanding how this sign interacts with the Big Three (sun, moon, and rising sign) will help you make sense of your entire horoscope.
Is it true that everyone possesses all 12 signs?
Every birth chart has 12 zodiac signs, 12 houses, two luminaries (the Sun and Moon), and eight planets. Because a birth chart encompasses the entire sky at the time of your birth, all 12 zodiac signs are represented in your chart in some way. Even if you despise Geminis, Scorpios, and Sagittariuses, their energy is channeled in some way in your life.
