I don’t plan to really teach astrology here and I’m hardly an expert so I wouldn’t pretend to be a teacher.
On the other hand I can share some of the things I know thanks to the really wonderful teacher I’ve met along the way.
This time I thought of sharing a simple guide to read aspects.
Even after learning the characteristics of the planet, the houses and the signs you’re going to use your knowledge in a different way.
The trick if I can call it that is the dynamic reading of the map.
As a new student I could learn what the planets represented but failed moving from the fixed reading to the flow reading of the chart.
The way that helped me integrating this next level of understanding the chart was by “converting” it to a conversation.
How would Saturn sound like when he is located in Gemini, and what would he say if he lives in a certain neighborhood, with certain neighbors.
It seems a little silly at first but if you really try to visualize the whole structure it comes to life.
After some practice it is possible to hear the plants talking to each other and their talk is very much influenced by their distance from one another, their goals, their homes and much more.
I’m not sure most astrologer would approve but from my personal experience it really helps.
Glad you know what is going on, cause I am lost on the chart lol.
If you do tarot as your name suggest you should realize the same problem of moving from reading each card by itself to reading the story they tell together
Hi Laura,
I think your idea of a conversation among the planets is an excellent way of integrating their energies. Understanding how they interact and communicate is IMHO the essence of it all. Keep up the good work–the site looks great!
