Over the
years, we have reviewed many astrological configurations in our posts. We
have reviewed the birth chart aspects, the meanings of houses and planetary
energies and the list goes on and on. What we would now like to touch on
today is astrologically based, but we are reviewing from a bit of a different
angle.
There are
many people that study Astrology through books, the classroom and by
delineating their own chart and the charts of others. We at Holm
Astrology have taken astrology courses, read many books and studied the subject
in great depth for decades. The beauty behind this science is that our
forefathers have provided many transcripts and much information which has been
gathered and confirmed over a very long period of time. The history of
Astrology goes back several thousand years and thank goodness for the
information that has been formulated before us which is still available for all
of us to utilize.
It is our
hope that we can spark your interest in Astrology and provide you with a useful
foundation if only to understand your own Astrology chart.
What we
wanted to touch on in this post is related to the natal chart, and we promise
not to go too deep all at once. We want to ensure that if you look into
the workings of your own charts or would like to study other people’s chart
that you have a good understand of what is being laid in front of you. We
also want to ensure that you understand although the chart speaks of details of
many aspects of our personality as well as forecasting potential energies that
are forthcoming, we as individuals are ultimately in the driver’s seat and it
is in our hands to change or tweak anything that we may find in our charts.
We are
not at the mercy of the astrological energies, and although transits and
progressions certainly do have an impact on our lives and are extremely
accurate in their definition, we always are at the helm. We personally control our attitude and
outlook on the outcome of these events as well as our responses to them.
It is always at our discretion how we choose to view any incident that happens
in our life. We can choose to be swept away and swallowed up by events or
we can take control of how we handle any situation in our lives and look at the
more challenging events as lessons and not punishment.
The
personality characteristics that come naturally to us can always be adapted and
tweaked to work for us instead of making life difficult. We can learn to use what is available to us
instead of feeling victim to them.
Going one
step further, our birth chart has many aspects and planetary placements that
carry great weight in our lives; however, any square or opposition can be
turned into a trine or sextile as our life moves forward. This is not to
say that we will not experience the lessons that the aspect or planetary
position suggests. We do suggest, however, that we can use the lessons to
our advantage by making changes conducive to our growth and turn the lesson into
something that not only fosters growth on many levels but adds to who we are as
individuals.
It is
important, therefore, not to get overly caught up in challenging events within
the Astrology chart or in lessons suggesting disruptions through transit or
progression. These are stepping stones to great development and
achievements. We have the ability to learn lessons and conquer any
obstacle in life including any challenging conditions within a birth
chart. It is, of course, up to each individual to recognize this and put
it into motion in their lives.
Understand,
beyond question, that you can achieve success on any levels as a result of challenging
positions and aspects found within your birth chart. They are only
insurmountable if you decide that they are.
We are
certainly at the controls of our reaction to our life’s events. Nothing
stands in the way of progress except our mind’s focus. You have control
over all of your thoughts that are less than positive and can, with practice, channel
them in a positive direction.
Enjoy the
beautiful journey of life and
take advantage of the information that your Astrology chart provides you with. It is a wonderful tool to have.
