The lunar cycle has a definite influence upon the human psyche. Scientific
psychological studies have demonstrated the powerful effect of this cycle upon
human behavior -- the full Moon coinciding with more extreme anxiety, tension,
sensitivity, and other pathological conditions. On the positive side, more
physically speedy and energized, and on the negative side, more anxious and
nervy.

On the transcendental level, Virgo governs karma yoga, the path of service
extended to all beings. By coming to know the needs of others and learning how
best to satisfy their natural desires, we experience the unity of each and every
creature woven into the web of life.

Perennial non-conformists, the natives of winter's second astrological month are

A practical earth sign, Capricorn (December 22 to January 19) is the month when
fanciful dreams become well-plotted schemes. It took Benjamin Franklin (born
Jan. 17, 1706) to proffer the adage that a "penny saved is a penny earned".
Capricorns love to master the moment and set up systems which seem capable of
lasting forever.

If the abundance of books on a specific subject measures the pulse of popular
culture, there is a seeming revival of soul as a topic of cultural interest. The
immense profusion of these works suggests a renewed claim to bring soul back to
the attention of the postmodern consciousness, to reawaken the sacred in our
everyday lives. But what is soul and what does it mean to suffer its loss?

Astrology examines the microcosm and macrocosm... you and the universe. Contrary
to popular belief, the stars and planets have no effect on us. Instead, they are
manifestations of hidden, more divine energies that are operating. I call the
symbols in the skies "signatures" of the Creator intended for man's use.

Donna Cunningham. The three most influential factors in a
horoscope are generally the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant. Thus they
are a good place to begin analyzing a chart. While their weights
may be nearly identical in terms of their influence, their
functions are different.

by Julia Parker. The three most important elements in the
fully-calculated birth-chart are the Rising-sign, Sun-sign and
Moon-sign — in that order. We all know our Sun-sign, because we
know our birth date. The Sun-sign is, in the opinion of many
astrologers, second in importance to our Rising-sign, which
relies on the precise time and location of our birth.

As the sun illuminates each sign in turn, we can boldly express the unique
genius of that sign. The sun represents vitality, pride, creative energy, and
the outward expression of self-knowledge.

I think electional astrology appeals to people who want to control things. We
all know that this kind of attitude can get us into trouble. If a client wants
me to time an event that only affects them, like a surgery date, well that's
fine with me. I get requests for this work from time to time and have developed
a methodology that gets good results most of the time. I'll share with you how
this method developed and something of how it works.

by Basil Fearrington. As many parts of speech as we have in
language, they sometimes do not do justice to what is being
described. And so it is in astrology. The word Mars "says"
something that cannot compete with the aggressive, direct nature
of its symbol. So, to facilitate memorization of each Sign, and
to appreciate its archetype, we must appreciate what the symbol
describes.
