Astrology, the Basics
āWait, so iām not just an Aries?!ā
No, youāre not. In fact none of us are just one anything. So letās dial it back to day we were born. The stars and planets in the sky aligned to convey a story completely unique to you, and thus your natal chart was born!
Ā Ā Our Sun sign
āPlayboi, whatās a Sun Sign?ā
Well, the Sun Sign is the sign everyone typically knows about themselves. Itās the sign you were born under that immediately correlates with your birthday. Meaning,Ā āI was born in April so Iām a Taurus!ā Your sun sign is the sign the Sun was in on the day of your birth. So what does the sun represent in astrology? Our vitality and ego,Ā āwho we are.ā The thing about the Sun is weāre constantly growing into ourselves and our egos, constantly learning ourselves and strengths, so weāre constantly growing into our Suns. Many people write off astrology due to their inability to relate to their Sun signs when so much more goes into a person. Your Sun sign is lessĀ āwho i amā and more soĀ āwho iām becoming.ā And sometimes we never fully become the poster child of our Sun signs because we grow at different rates and resonate with different things, not to mention the housing of the Sun plays a heavy role in how ourĀ āegosā will play out. Also aspects made to our Sun by other planets are most important as they shape our Sunās characteristics, but thatās another post!
Our Moon Sign
āā¦okay, so I understand Sun Signs now, but whatās a moon sign?ā
The moon sign in astrology is of immense importance. This is where we feel most comfortable and secure and our primal emotional reactions. As I mentioned previously, the sun is āwho weāre becomingāā while the moon can be defined as āwho we always are.ā Unlike the Sun who illuminates everything, the moon is a softer, dimmer light. It lights up the dark sky at night and it does the same for our personal dark sky emotionally. Simply put, the moon is our emotions. Emotions can be simply irrational and erratic, so we suppress them because throwing a hissy fit in public is not that endearing. My point being that our moons can sometimes be overlooked by others as well as our selves because the attributes of our moons are highly subconscious at times.The moon is how we were nourished, and in turn how we nourish others. Itās an extremely sentimental and personal part of our being.Itās what makes us feel safe as well as habitual patterns we carry. A balanced moon is very important as an unbalanced one can take a toll on us physically. When the needs our moon requires arenāt met, we can start to display itās negative attributes and fall into a bit of a depression, eat less, and never leave your bed. Or perhaps become more aggressive and angry depending on your moon sign. Itās also equally important to understand that others around us have different moon placements then us natally. Everyone requires different things to feel emotionally secure, sometimes weāre harder on others because their love languages differ from our own.
Ā Ā Our Mercury Sign
āWhat does Mercury have to do with anything?ā
Well, everything. Mercury rules over the mind, how we think, how fast we think, how we learn, our speech, and even our style of writing. Heās the fastest moving planet in the solar system so itās fitting that he rules the nervous system. The poor guy gets glossed over a lot until he turns retrograde and everyone starts running around like chickens missing their heads because thatās when we notice most how strong Mercuryās influence is on our lives. Mercury is not an emotional planet but more so an intellectual one. Itās how we asses things and use logic before we act, if we use logic before we act.
Our Venus Sign
āI KNOW THIS ONEā¦LOVE RIGHT?ā
Youāve guessed it, Venus rules over romance but a lot more as well. Sheās our social graces, if we have any social graces at all. How we charm others as well as what we personally find pleasurable. Venus rules over our attitude towards money and material things. How much we spend and how often we treat ourselves. What we like to eat, what tastes good, what feels good. Venus is also our attractiveness, and what weāre attracted to. She gives us a clue to our love language on a more superficial level, what it takes to woo us. How we like to be seduced and pursued. Venus is diplomatic, she shows us how we make peace with others. Venus also rules over artistry and how appreciate the arts and even the possibility of having artistic gifts as well. Venus also highlights our sexual nature in terms of what we find pleasurable, what feels right, and what we find acceptable.
Our Mars Sign
āMars is ourā¦anger?ā
He can be, yes. After all he is the God of War. Mars in astrology represents energy. Our physical energy and vitality, and especially our sexual energy. Heās all about action, what it physically takes us to doā¦well, anything. Heās our day to day strength and drive. He exemplifies how aggressive and assertive we are. Our ambitions, durability, temperament, action, and drive. Do we exercise? How sexual are we? Our sexual style? Our competitiveness? All can be answered by our mars sign. Mars showcases how quick we are to anger, what makes us tick/explode. Heās also the last of the personal planets.
Our Jupiter Sign
āā¦ā¦ā
Jupiter is the first non personal planet as it stays in the same for an entire year. Everyone born within that year will have the same Jupiter sign. That doesnāt negate Jupiterās importance in anyway, so donāt skim over him. It just means we have take a closer look at him in our natal chart by examining his house placement and aspects made towards him by other planets. Jupiter rules over good fortune, philosophy, travel, and higher level learning (different from mercury.) He is expansive and optimistic. Heās a grand catalyst to spiritual growth. Heās where we overindulge, our generosity, and wisdom.
Our Saturn Sign
āSo what does Saturn do?ā
Saturn is like our astrological father. He sets the rules and regulations, the routine. And like when we disobey our paternal father thereās consequences the same applies for Saturn. Saturn is not out to punish anyone, he just returns anything we put out into the universe.Ā āWhat goes around comes around.ā Sound familiar? Saturn rules over Karma. Saturn in our chart shows us where he grounds us, where we must be held responsible, where we must work hard. Our careers, the practicality of how we achieve success.
Our Uranus Sign
āand Uranus?ā
Uranus is a much slower moving planet. His energy is very erratic, spontaneous, and rebellious. Heās extremely progressive and an advocate for originality. Uranus has to be looked at by house placement to determine its effects on us individually, as people from the same generation will share the same Uranus sign. Uranus in our charts will show us where we are unpredictable and rebellious. How and where we go against the grain. Our humanitarian side. How interested in activism we are, where we are liberated ourselves.
Our Neptune Sign
āthat Sea God?ā
Indeed. Neptune is the God of the Sea. In astrology Neptune rules over spirituality, all things hazy, confusion, love and romance on a deeper, ethereal level. He is illusions and our dreams. Intuition and psychic abilities. Neptune has dominion over deeper creativity and artistic abilities. He also shows us where we might try to escape reality and what we may try to use to escape reality with. He is addiction, substance abuse, and deception. Our fantasies.Ā
Our Pluto Sign
āisnāt Pluto like not even a planet anymore?ā
Yes, technically Pluto is a planetoid, but we still refer to Pluto as a planet in astrology so he will be respected as such! Despite his small size and the grand amount of distance he is from us his effects are undeniable.Pluto in our charts shows us where we are transformed and regenerated. Where we must die to be born again. His energy is very subconscious, we donāt always see it, but we feel it.Ā He is obsession, and our hunger for power, where we struggle for power. He is how we react to sex on a deeper, subconscious level. Where and what we become drawn and attached to. His energy is very primal. He also highlights where weāre manipulative or jealous if weāre displaying the negative attributes of Pluto.Ā
Our Ascendant Sign
āourā¦what sign?ā
Our Ascendant sign is crowned the ruler of our chart, and is of equal importance as our Sun and Moon signs. Itās specific to our birth time and location. The Ascendant is like the mask we put on to face the world. Itās our initial reaction to external forces. The lens we see life through on a day to day basis. Our ascendant is our physical bodies, how we look and how we act in public. Itās how people initially receive you, our first impressions, our mannerisms. Our outer personality. If people were to describe you theyād likely describe this sign.
So, as you can see a lot goes into a persons personality even more than whatās been mentioned above, humans are complex beings who canāt be described as just one sign, or one anything. We are more than our sun signs, we are more than signs period.

So sweet
I donāt know if youāve actually seen this episode, but Pam invites the entire office to her art show that sheās been gearing up for for a really long time. Nobody shows up except for Oscar and his partner (and they critique her work, calling herĀ ālacking in courageā among other things, not realizing she is standing right behind them) and then Michael. And Michael is the only one who tells her she is great just for putting herself out there, and the only one who places value on what sheās done, and he points out all the little details she got right and notices absolutely every bit of hard work she put into it. And then treats Pam like the artist she is by not just paying her for her art, but displaying it where literally everyone can see it.
Itās one of my favorite episodes.
So, my dad is the boss at his job, and when I was growing up watching the office, I always imagine my goofy ass dad acting like Michael Scott at work (not the case but w/e). My dad was and has always been pretty emotionally distant, and so this episode hit home so hard. Because Pamās reaction to finally being validated and having someone tell her theyāre proud of her (someone who rarely shows these tender moments with such poignancy no less) was so relatable and heart-warming.
