How this Horoscope Reading is done using Astrology
This general Weekly Horoscope Forecast is based on an astrological technique called the Solar Chart. Because the actual date and time and place of birth for a particular reader is not known, certain assumptions have been made to create this horoscope reading, which will apply to anyone born between MAY 22 and JUN 20 (plus or minus one day, depending on the year) with the Sun in Gemini, and also to anyone with Ascendant in Gemini or with the Sign of Gemini Rising in their birth horoscope. It may be especially accurate if the Ascendant in your birth horoscope is near 0 degrees of the Sign of Gemini. If you know the Sign of your Ascendant, read the Weekly Horoscope for that Sign too - it may be more accurate than this Sun Sign horoscope, although both will apply to the issues and events coming up in your own life.
What is a real Horoscope?
People often refer to a forecast such as this one - or to the Sun Sign columns in the newspapers - as a "horoscope". A horoscope is actually a MAP of Space-Time, an "image of the hour" as its Greek root words imply, which shows where the Sun and Moon and Planets are located in relation to each other, and to a particular place on Earth at a particular instant in Time.
The Natal Horoscope Chart
If that instant is the time of birth of an individual, then THAT horoscope is called a "natal horoscope" or "natal chart" or "birth chart". What the average person calls "a horoscope" is actually a reading of that map, or an interpretation in words of that horoscope chart's symbolic meaning. Unless you are a student of astrology who knows how to read the map, you will not get too much useful information from a real horoscope chart, any more than you would from looking at your own chest X-ray unless you were a doctor trained in reading X-ray images.
Your Personal Natal Horoscope Chart
You could order a personal Natal Chart with Planetary Aspect List here at STAR SIGNS Astrology Zine, but to understand it you would probably need to order one of the emailed Horoscope Readings in which Michael Star explains the meaning of your horoscope chart in plain English. A good start would be the "Six Pack" which includes a $5 Natal Chart plus five of the $5 Personality Readings for only $15 instead of $30. It's an inexpensive way to find out how much a real astrology reading can tell you about yourself from just your time and place of birth. This set of Readings can also be ordered by people who do not know their actual TIME of birth, just the month, day, year and town (their Natal Chart will be done using the "Solar Chart" method).
The Horoscope Reading
An interpretation of the meaning of the horoscope is called a "horoscope reading" or a "delineation of the horoscope". When a horoscope is calculated (i.e. the horoscope is "cast") for the purpose of predicting possible or probable influences on thoughts, emotions, actions, or events in the human experience, that instant in Time used to calculate it is the present time or some time in the future. That horoscope is then compared to the natal (birth) horoscope of the person for whom the astrological forecast is being prepared. There are actually at least TWO horoscopes being used when making astrological forecasts.
Planetary Positions
The positions of the Sun and Moon and Planets at that particular time and place are compared to their positions at the time and place of the person's birth, by looking at their present or future positions in relationship to the Signs and Houses in the birth horoscope chart, and to the angles they make to their original positions at the time of birth. Each is compared to each of the others, as well as to comparing its present or future position to its own original position in Space-Time at the time and place of the person's birth. Each of these factors has a meaning, and a complete reading of the horoscope integrates them all into a useful explanation. You can see how complex a FULL reading of the horoscope can be, compared to the few lines in a newspaper horoscope column, or to the general Sun Sign horoscope forecast on this page.
About this general Weekly Horoscope Forecast
This particular horoscope forecast simply looks at what House in the birth horoscope the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars are presently transiting (or moving through) and then interprets the possible manifestation of thoughts, feelings, actions and events which are most likely to take place when each Planet is in that particular House. While a Planet is transiting a particular House in the horoscope, there is a focus on the areas of life represented by that House - the issues symbolized by the Planet are most likely to "come up" in some form in those facets of one's life symbolized by that House.
Same Play, Different Players
Note that it is the "issues" which the horoscope indicates, and you should always look behind an event or situation to see if it is just one of the possible forms in which a certain issue may manifest. Sometimes the situation or event involves someone else, and you are only a participant or merely a witness to the way this issue is coming up for them to experience, and for you to observe.
A Clue for You
It is still YOUR issue too, even if it appears not to be "happening TO you", and you should take a close look at how this issue could have some particular MEANING for YOU. It is very likely a clue for you in bringing your attention to a belief or habit which needs to be corrected because it is keeping you from being happy or successful or at peace with yourself. It might be a clue to what is really happening in your life (what it's all ABOUT, not what it LOOKS LIKE on the surface). Or it might be a valuable clue to finding the solution which resolves the issue, or the best way of dealing with whatever is blocking your happiness.
Coincidence? I Think NOT.
There are no coincidences, if an issue is coming up "in your face" it is because you need to take a good look at it! Even if it appears to be a negative or painful thing, it is coming up to help HEAL you, not HURT you.
Sign Strategy
A person's likely strategies for dealing with those issues at this time are indicated by the Sign the transiting Planet is in now. His natural habitual strategies are indicated by the Sign in his birth horoscope which that House overlaps. However, since we do not know which Sign that would actually be for a particular person in the group (except for the Sun Sign), the Sign in the birth horoscope is not considered in this forecast. The Sign the transiting Planet is moving through this week is the same for all people on Earth, so it is not mentioned in this horoscope forecast.
Moon in Motion
The Moon is not considered in this horoscope forecast because it moves so quickly that it would pass through three or four different Houses in a week. The Moon is used as a primary indicator in daily horoscope forecasts. The outer Planets move so slowly that they would remain in the same House for several weeks, months, or even years, and thus are considered in monthly and yearly forecasts instead of a weekly horoscope forecast like this.
In the House
To get more insights on what areas of your life are associated with a particular House, read the article The Astrological HOUSES by Michael Star in the "Teach Yourself Astrology" series listed on the |HOME| page of STAR SIGNS Astrology Zine. Each of the transiting Planets is passing through a particular House in YOUR natal horoscope, and the general Weekly Horoscope Forecast on this page lists the House in your Solar Chart which the Sun and three of the inner "Personal Planets" are passing through this week.
Check the article on Houses to find the kinds of things that are most likely to be emphasized in your life when the Sun or a Planet is moving through that House. The most common ones are mentioned in the forecast on this page, but you might find other things that apply more specifically to YOU by reading the article on Houses.
See the Pattern, See Past the Particulars
If you observe your life carefully from a detached veiwpoint, you may see certain themes or issues coming up in several situations around the same time, even though the events or the people involved may be different in each case. If you ask yourself, "What is this all ABOUT?" you may find the answer is something that you will see being presented to you in more than one situation or event while the Sun or the Planet is moving through the House that "rules" those kinds of things. If you see three or more similar situations coming up around the same time, it is not just a coincidence -- it is a "meaningful coincidence" created by the Synchronicity between the movements of the heavenly bodies and issues and events in the lives of people on Earth who are attuned to certain angles and positions the Planets may move into, relative to their positions in the birth horoscope of certain people.
Simultaneous Separate Situations
Synchronicity is a term invented by the great Swiss psychologist, Dr Carl Jung, to describe an a-causal relationship between two things or events. One does not cause the other, but they can be seen to occur together at the same time. So if you observe one of them occurring, you can assume the other is also happening at the same time. That is basically "how Astrology works".
In Sync: Same Time, Different Space
This synchronization is what allows astrologers to interpret the positions of the Planets as indicators of motivations, feelings, actions and events for the people whose individual horoscopes would be attuned to particular positions of the Planets at any given time. This is the basis for making astrological forecasts and predictions by examining present and future transits of the Planets to the planetary positions in the birth horoscope (which you might describe as being "imprinted" on all living things which begin their life at that particular time and place).
All living things that are "born" can have an individual Horoscope
GROUPS of humans like countries and corporations, and all living things like dogs and cats and horses, have a time and place of birth, so a natal horoscope chart can be cast for them, as well as for human beings. A corporation is "born" when it is incorporated. A country is "born" when it declares independence or when its leaders sign its charter. THE WORLD THIS WEEK column in STAR SIGNS Astrology Zine is based on the natal horoscopes of world leaders and people in the news, as well as countries and/or corporate entities like multi-national companies and public institutions.
What you call "my sign" is the Section of the sky the Sun was in
Because the horoscope forecast on this page is being done for a large group of people instead of an individual, the actual time and place of birth for each one of them is not known. But because our calendar is based on the motion of the Earth revolving around the Sun once per year, if we know our month and day of birth by that calendar we also know what Sign the Sun appeared to be in at the time OUR birth horoscope was cast. The Sun, Moon and all the Planets appear in a narrow band across the sky called "the Zodiac", and the Signs are just equal sections of that 360-degree circle.
Star Signs
The distant fixed stars form the stable background of the Zodiac, which helps us observe where the moving Planets ("planet" means "wandering star") are located at any time in relation to this fixed field of star patterns. People often refer to their "star sign" when they are talking about their "Sun sign" -- but the Sun literally is a star, so the two terms really mean the same thing! But keep in mind that what the ancient astronomers called "stars" actually referred to the "wandering stars" which we now call "planets". Astrologers today do not read "the stars" - they interpret the positions of the Planets (and the Moon and the Sun), and use the fixed stars as a background reference to locate the positions of the Planets.
Predicting Planet Positions
Because our MONTH and DAY of birth corresponds to the position of the Sun as it appears to move across the Zodiac, we CAN make some general assumptions using the SUN and its natal (birth) position in the horoscope, namely that for everyone "born under the Sign of Gemini" the Sun was SOMEWHERE in that 30-degree section of the sky called Gemini. By using the predictions of the science of Astronomy, we DO know exactly where the Sun, Moon and all the Planets are located at the present time, and where they will be located at any time in the next week or in any future month or year, so we can compare their present or future positions (called their "transiting" positions or just "transits") to the natal position of the Sun for everyone in that group. We can assume an average position in the center of the Sign, or we can know that at SOME time in the next month the Moon and the faster-moving Planets like Mercury and Venus will move into a particular angular position with respect to the Sun, no matter where it is positioned within that 30-degree Sign sector.
What's Your Angle?
In "Geocentric" Astrology we define the angular relationship between two Planets as the angle they make to each other when the center of the Earth is considered as the pivot point. For example, when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun, the Sun and Moon are in a 180-degree angular relationship to each other with respect to the Earth, and are said to be in an "opposition aspect" to each other. This is also called a "Full Moon" because that is when we see the light from the Sun being reflected back towards us from the entire surface of the Moon which is facing the Earth. It is also one of the two times each month when the combined gravitational effect of the Sun and Moon on the Earth is greatest, because all three bodies are in line, thus the ocean's tides are the highest at the Full Moon and at the New Moon (which is a Sun/Moon "conjunction"). Since the human body is about 80% water, it is quite obvious that the Sun and Moon which affect the ocean tides may also affect the human body in some physical way. By the way, your brain is about 90% water...
May The Force Be With You!
Occasionally you may hear about some scientist claiming that Astrology is bunk because the "gravitational effect" of the Planets on a new-born baby are less than the gravitational effect of the doctor delivering the baby (because he is so close), but that scientist is missing an obvious fact (obviously not a Gemini) - it is not the isolated effect of single body that matters, but the "differential" effect when the gravitational force of a Moon or a planet acts at an angle to the powerful gravitational pull of the Sun - an effect which can be powerful enough to lift the waters of an entire ocean by about ten feet! Astrologers generally believe that it is not just Gravity which accounts for the astrological influence of Planets on people, but some other unknown Force which may be "physical" or even "spiritual" in nature. What makes Astrology "work" may simply be part of the plan of Creation which was set in motion by the same infinite Force which created the Universe itself. "May the Force be with you!"
The Solar Horoscope Chart
We can also cast a "Solar Chart" for all the people born with the Sun in the astrological Sign of Gemini, by assuming the Cusp of the First House (a position known as "the Ascendant" or "rising degree") is at 0 degrees of Gemini. All of the other 11 house cusps (border lines) are then calculated from that point, so that each House represents an equal segment of the sky as viewed from Earth. We do not know the actual place or time of birth for any individual in the group, but the decision to locate the Ascendant at 0 degrees of Gemini also implies that a time and place has been chosen to represent the whole group in a symbolic sense.
Symbolic Sense
It has been found that by interpreting this symbolic horoscope chart for an entire group of people (about one-twelfth of the population of any large group, or even of the whole world), we can make some astrological predictions about present and future influences and tendencies which will be true in a general sense for most of the people in that group. It's not as good, but it's much more convenient, to just read a generalized interpretation like this, than to prepare and interpret a complex horoscope for yourself each week or month, or pay an astrologer to do it for you.
Testing, Testing
This kind of astrological forecast will not be as accurate or specific as it could be for an individual whose specific time and place of birth were used to cast the natal horoscope chart and calculate the exact Sign and degree of the Ascendant and all of that person's House cusps, but it does give some useful information which is the best available under the circumstances, and which is worth considering and observing as the emotions, actions, and events unfold over time - even if only for entertainment, or out of curiosity (of course, curious is a word invented for Gemini types). Follow your Sun Sign horoscope forecasts each week on this page and see for yourself if there is any truth revealed in them for you!
If you were "born on the cusp" of a Sign
IF you were born within one day before or after either of the above dates, the SUN may have been in the previous or next Sign ADJACENT to Gemini in your birth horoscope, depending on the YEAR and TIME and PLACE you were born (being on the border line is often called "being on the cusp"). Only by having your personal Natal Horoscope Chart (birth chart) calculated accurately will you KNOW exactly where the Sun was, by degree and Sign. But you can GUESS the Sign of the Sun by reading the horoscope interpretations for BOTH Signs to see if one seems more accurate for you. Note, however, that IF you were born near sunrise, your Ascendant may also be in that same Sign or the one before or after, so the horoscope forecast written for THAT Sign will appear to be the most accurate in terms of events and experiences because it is your Ascendant Sign (or Rising Sign) and not your Sun Sign.
Sun, Moon, Ascendant
In any case, reading the horoscope for the Sign of your Ascendant will be more accurate than reading the one for the Sign of your Sun. You may wish to read BOTH, and see how some things mentioned in each one will usually apply to the issues coming up in your life at the time covered by the two horoscope forecasts. If you also know your Moon Sign, you might try looking at the horoscope for that Sign too, and interpret the meaning as applying more on the emotional level - as feelings or fears related to the issues mentioned in the the horoscope forecast for that time period.
Your "Ascendant" and "Rising Sign"
If you know your Ascendant Sign or "Ascending Sign" or Rising Sign is Gemini, you may find this horoscope forecast even more accurate than reading the horoscope for your Sun Sign, since this simplified Solar Chart is actually created by assuming the Ascendant (which IS the point where the Cusp of the First House is positioned) is at zero degrees of the Sign the SUN was in at your time and place of birth. If your Sun was in Gemini, then your Ascendant will likely be in Gemini IF you were born within about one minute to 120 minutes BEFORE SUNRISE, so you and other Gemini people with pre-dawn births may find this forecast especially accurate. (If you were born within the two hours AFTER sunrise, try reading the horoscope forecast for the next Sign AFTER your Sun Sign). The "Ascendant" is a point at a particular degree within a particular Sign. The "Rising Sign" or "Ascending Sign" is just the Sign which contains the Ascendant in a particular person's horoscope.
Inside, Outside
It is the Sign on the Ascendant which is most noticeable in an individual's outward appearance and personal style, and thus you are more likely to be guessing a person's "Rising Sign" than their "Sun Sign" when you first meet them. You might say that the Sun Sign indicates a person's "character" while the Ascendant Sign indicates their "personality" or "personal style", habitual gestures or ways of expressing themselves verbally, and often their actual outward physical appearance (Gemini Rising looks young and/or acts young, Leo Rising often has a "lion's mane" of hair). Character and personality are not necessarily the same thing, in fact, for each Sun Sign there are twelve possible Rising Signs, since during each day people are being born while a different Sign rises on the eastern horizon about every two hours.
Facts on Acts
Now you know why people you meet do not always "act" the way those "Sun Sign" books told you they would! They act like their Sun Sign when it comes to important decisions in life, actions based on their basic belief system, or when matters of integrity are at stake, but they act like their Ascendant Sign (Rising Sign) in their everyday superficial inter-actions with others. They act like their Moon Sign when they are re-acting emotionally, seeking emotional support, or trying to feel safe and secure. To see when and how people "act to attract" according to their Venus Sign read my article on Venus Love Styles. How they "act to attain" (or "act to attack") according to their Mars Sign is described in my article on Mars Love Styles.
By the way, one way to tell if you have Gemini Rising in your natal horoscope is when people tend to perceive you as being "young in spirit" or even looking younger than your age. And you probably talk a lot! Gemini Rising people often "talk with their hands" and like to be regarded as witty and clever and good conversationalists. They would really hate to look foolish or ignorant, and have a fear of "boredom" or "being boring".
How to get a more accurate Horoscope Reading
