significance of degrees in astrology
the twelve zodiac signs are split evenly into 30 degrees for each sign Â
degrees show the position of a planet/house in a sign (i.e. if your mercury is in gemini at 27 degrees, then it is positioned closer to cancer than taurus)
when a planet is located at a critical degree, that placement is strengthened/prominentÂ
 the critical degrees for the cardinal signs (aries, cancer, libra, and capricorn) are: 0, 13, and 26
the critical degrees for the fixed signs (taurus, leo, scorpio, and aquarius) are: 8, 9, 21, 22Â
the critical degrees for the mutable signs (gemini, virgo, sagittarius and pisces) are: 4 and 17
along with these, in any sign 0 and 29 degrees are often considered critical degrees as well
the 29th degree, or Anaretic degree, encompasses any planet located within 29°00â00â to 29°59â59â and is associated with a feeling of urgency
when a planet is placed within the Anaretic degree, decision-making issues may arise in that area of an individual
unlike the other critical degrees which strengthen placements, Anaretic degrees pose as a challenging positionÂ
planets located at the zero degree of a sign represent a fresh and new beginningÂ
those planets often express a very pure version of their sign
because the 0° is at the start of a sign, individuals likewise tend to undergo significant journeys/development in that area
