Astrology is the study of planetary cycles.  The Sun, Moon and planets move in their own individual time and in their own space.  Similarly, the earth and all life upon its surface, moves in this same but individualistic rhythm. All life is about cycles. The cycles of nature and the seasons, the planets also move in regular and predictable movements.  Astrology can help us understand ourselves and remember who we are by interpreting these planetary cycles and understanding the way they interact with our everyday lives.

“Most of us know our Sun Sign and leave it at that.  While our sun sign is indeed important given that the archetype of the Sun is to show us where we shine in our lives … or our Spirit … there is so much more to consider.  As an example, Mars represents our drive and motivation; Venus is our desire; Mercury is how we learn and communicate; The Moon is about our past and our emotions; Jupiter shows us where in our lives we wish to expand and grow … and so on.”

-Asharni Arlae

Astrology is a combination of science, math, astronomy, psychology, intuition and is indeed an artform which takes years of committed study to learn and understand. It has been used and incorporated into all aspects of life for thousands of years throughout all cultures around the world. It has been used for navigating the seas to find different countries, to the creation stories of life, the Gods/Goddesses, to harvest times, to establish one’s fate in life, to being used in battle plans. The most famous war that was won in history using Astrology was the fall of Constantinople by Sultan Mehmed ii.

“The Ancient Greeks believed this enthusiastically.  Some of the greatest thinkers in the history of mankind did not think it unreasonable to study planetary cycles in order to gain a better understanding of how mankind in general and people as individuals, fit into the universal cosmos.  The Greeks assembled the body of knowledge upon which modern astrology is based.  They applied their advanced understanding of astronomy and mathematics to the descriptions handed down from the astrologers/astronomers (there was no distinction in those days) of ancient Egypt and Babylonia.”

Astrology is deeply connected and intertwined with mythology, which in turn, helps us understand our own personal mythology.

“At the dawn of a recorded astrology in ancient Mesopotamia circa the second millennium BCE, there was a direct and explicit correlation between the planets and the deities. The planets were considered to be one of the manifestations of the gods or the places where they lived.”

- Demetra George

Astrology is and was the springboard to modern day psychology. Carl Jung is an undisputed pioneer in modern day psychology. His research and use of Astrology was incorporated into his practices and clients. We can see how they are now incorporated into modern day psychological practices. If you ever taken the Myer Briggs or similar tests, this was formed by Dr Carl Jung utilising Astrology. There is also a branch of Astrology based on his findings - Jungian Psychology/Astrology

“Obviously astrology has much to offer psychology, but what the latter can offer its elder sister is less evident. So far as I judge, it would seem to me advantageous for astrology to take the existence of psychology into account, above all the psychology of the personality and of the unconscious.”

- Carl G. Jung
