ASTROLOGY
Astrology has served a critical role in society, forever. It is probably older than Gold. It is arguably the oldest thought-system on earth. As astrology grows in popularity and use all over the world, The Ratio aims to reignite humanity’s study of astrology with the most recent human technologies like Big Data, Statistics, and AI. Humanity can and should know the best about our history and our relationship to the cosmos.
Below is more information about the definition of sun sign, moon sign and rising sign - not just in contemporary astrology but also ancient astrology. At least in the Western world. Astrology is not unique to the Western world, in fact it developed independently in every continent on earth. We focus here on the West. Contemporary definitions were poetically summarized by author Katy Bohinc, and ancient definitions largely come from the beautiful text “Astrology, Magic and Alchemy in Art” by Getty Publications of the J. Paul Getty Museum. Each of us is not just an astrology chart; an astrology chart is also one’s belonging in history and the universe. Astrology is the macro-cosmos and the micro-cosmos, it is ancient and contemporary, it is a place in space and also in time.
SUN SIGN
In contemporary astrology, the moon represents our feelings and emotions.
The zodiac sign where our moon falls describes how we emotionally process and react to situations
all
our life.
In the ancient world, the Moon held a pre-eminent position among the celestial bodies because among
other things, its movement served to mark time and nature’s major functions such as generation,
growth,
and death.
The moon was personified by the great archaic goddesses who guarded the rhythms of nature and the
occult
arts like the Egyptian Isis, Greek Hecate and Persephone, and the Roman Diana.
The moon was also associated with the figure of the Virgin Mary.
The length of a month, 28 days, was calculated based on lunar phases – new moon, quarter moon, full
moon, and last quarter moon – as were a woman’s fertile periods and the gestation of the fetus in
the
mother’s womb.
The movement of the tides and important chores such as sowing, pruning, and decanting wine into
casks
also depended on the phase of the moon.
The moon was humanity’s original calendar and was associated with the cycles of life : fertility
(full
moon), death (black moon), and regeneration (new moon).
The color of the moon, changing as it does from dark red to brilliant white, its brightness, and its
position along the heavenly horizon were considered to be signs of either calamities or strokes of
good
fortune, as were lunar halos and eclipses.
Because of the variability with which it appears and disappears from the sky and its influence on
female
physiology and on fruits and plants, the Moon has been reputed to be the cause of many psychological
phenomena.
In ancient astrology, the moon symbolizes the Mother.
For Neoplatonists, the moon is associated with the body and form.
In Dante’s cosmology, the moon was the seat of Grammar.
LEO
In contemporary astrology, Leo is associated with a proud, well-developed sense of self. Leo is associated with a flair for social performance. The ability to shine and direct attention at themselves is in most cases a beloved Leo trait. Leos know how to light up a room and in most cases do not shy from doing so. In ancient times, Leo symbolized the full energy of the sun at the summer solstice. At the macro level, Leo was the greatest explosion of the cosmos, and on the individual level, the full affirmation of one’s individuality, will, and consciousness. Originating from Egypt in the 4th millennium, B.C., the ancient depiction of Leo was a lion’s tail drinking at a river. Ancient Egyptians placed two lions on maps and in art at the boundary of the known world to guard the rising and setting of the sun. Since the sun represented the ability to grow crops; Leo represented the ability of humanity to survive. Hence, the guarding and protecting symbolism of the lions. Ancient art often depicted Leo the Lion’s (the sun’s) victory over the Taurus the Bull’s earth energy, of Day over Night, and of Summer over Winter. Leo also represented the penetrating force of God’s light and his word. As such Leo was also associated with Christ as a judge and teacher. Leo represented the power to achieve one’s aspirations, the force and splendor of existence, a generous and lofty spirit, but also ambition and pride. Leo was associated with full summer and fire.

SCORPIO
In contemporary astrology, Scorpio is associated with death, rebirth, sex, intimacy and generally what we call in contemporary times, “depth.” If the proceeding sign to Scorpio, Libra, is about socializing, diplomacy, and balance, Scorpio is about anything underneath the surface depths. An emotional water sign, Scorpio is known to be quite sensitive under what appears to be a controlled and sophisticated façade. If the Scorpio is penetrated, they strike back dramatically with a verbal sting, or worse. The evolved side of Scorpio is associated with the Eagle. The Eagle archetype is the Scorpion who has transcended their sensitive dark side to fly over issues with unflappable wisdom. Scorpio ultimately represents a depth which can ruminate to the point of death, and then regenerate as a reborn phoenix. In ancient times, Scorpio was associated with the death of the Sun in the winter months. The Scorpio constellation originated in ancient Babylonia. Later, in 46 B.C. the original Scorpio constellation was split by Julius Caesar between the claws of the Scorpio (Libra) and the body and tail (Scorpio). In ancient times, the Scorpio symbolized the return to the primordial state through a path of suffering and inner torment. Scorpio was a return to a state of original chaos before the rebirth of spring. It is not by coincidence that the rights of death – Halloween, Day of the Dead, All Saints Day, etcetera – fall during Scorpio season. Scorpio is represented by the gods of the underworld. Scorpio’s underworld affiliation is underscored by the position of the fixed planet Antares precisely within the Scorpio constellation. Antares, a fixed star associated with military strategy and prowess, is often called the “heart of Scorpio” or the “Star of the Spirits”. Antares falls just under the ecliptic at the southern extremity of the Milky Way. Kabbalists associated Scorpio with the number 13, and with the Death card (major arcana) of the Tarot – the symbol of transformation and rebirth. Scorpios were considered to be clear-eyed and cautious but underneath simmered an extreme emotionalism which could tend towards aggression or eroticism. Scorpio corresponded to the fullness of fall, to virility, and to water.
RISING SIGN
In contemporary astrology, the Rising sign denotes the social personality of an individual in the
first
15 minutes of meeting someone.
We might often wonder why we act slightly differently in social situations than in private
situations
with close friends and family.
Contemporary astrology would tell us that our social personalities are often different from our
private
ones (unless the rising sign and the sun sign are the same).
In both contemporary and ancient times, the Rising sign is also used to calculate the different
houses
of an astrology chart.
The ascendant (rising sign) in ancient times was named by the constellation which sat to the East in
the
horizon at the time and place of a person’s birth.
From the Greek “hora” (hour) and “skopeo” (I observe), horoscope means the “zodiac point that looks
at
the hour”.
By extension, “horoscope” means the study of the birth theme of the individual based on the time of
birth.
The term “prognostication” is derived from the Greek “prognostikos”, or the science of future
events.
In order to truly calculate a horoscope, the Rising sign of the individual needs to be included to
observe the houses in each sector of a person’s birth chart.
This means an individual’s time of birth is a critical factor in studying an individual’s horoscope
at
depth and providing any type of true “prognostication”.

AQUARIUS
In contemporary astrology, Aquarius is seen as the revolutionary innovator. Individualistic, unique, and often blazing the path of the unknown, Aquarius is associated with revolution, technology, outer space, and anything on the cusp of our imaginations. While Aquarius is historically called the sign of the “water bearer”, Aquarius is in fact an air sign, meaning Aquarius approaches life from an intellectual, mental perspective. Aquarius is also associated with being deeply humanitarian; they consider the perspective of impact to all humans, not just themselves. In this way, like all Air signs including Gemini and Libra, Aquarius symbolizes the unification of contradictions. For Aquarius, the air sign unification is their unique individualism met alongside their compassionate humanitarianism. Aquarius originates from the Sumerian “gu.la” (great man) or lord of the heavenly spring. In ancient times, Aquarius represented man’s striving toward the spiritual level of existence, the dissolving of the individual into the instinctual flow of things, and mystical death. The ancient Egyptians believed that the Aquarius’ constellation’s disappearance from the horizon caused the flooding of the Nile and the return of spring. Hence the nickname for Aquarius was “water bearer” despite being a constellation associated with air. The association of Aquarius with water dates back to the 4th millennium B.C. when the full moon at solstice time fell into the “Astral Sea” part of the sky and announced the rainy season, flooding, and springtime. Aquarius symbolized the correspondence between microcosm and macrocosm, mystical death, and a dominance of elective affinities. Generous and hospitable, Aquarians were believed to have a serene, harmonious nature, rarely disturbed by the worries of everyday life. Also they were believed to be selfless in dispensing advice and aid to their neighbors. Aquarius is associated with the fullness of winter and with air.
