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.
SAGITTARIUS
In contemporary astrology, Sagittarius represents a love for freedom, knowledge, and wisdom. Sagittarius can be envisioned indoors in a book or outside in nature, seeking knowledge and experience. Sagittarius has a desire to speak with a trove of knowledge about the world, a broad mind, and philosophical wisdom. Sagittarius as a constellation in the zodiac originated in ancient Babylonia. In ancient times, Sagittarius represented the human aspiration to overcome one’s limits, as well as spiritual transformation. The sign preceding the winter solstice, Sagittarius represented the psychic energy extended to achieve learning, understanding, synthesis, cohesion and illumination. In ancient times, Sagittarius was associated with self-restraint. Sagittarius also denoted a thirst for independence and the ecstatic silence that precedes the seasonal “death” of the winter solstice, a prelude to the regeneration of the universe. Sagittarius was considered an emblem of the “philosopher-prophet” and of the perfect man, resulting from the harmonious union of the parts of Sagittarius : the body (horse), and the soul (human bust), and the spirit (arrow). The animal body of Sagittarius represents the realm of instinct which is bound to the material world and the rhythms of nature. The human head and torso signify psychic life and the rational soul. The arrow represents mans’ spiritual transformation, yearning for knowledge and (hopefully) resulting wisdom. During the Middle Ages, Sagittarius became a symbol of Christ and was associated with the White Knight of the Apocalypse. In the height of the Renaissance, the iconography of Sagittarius still maintained Arab-like characteristics drawn from Eastern astrology manuscripts, such as the turbaned head of the centaur. In the network of correspondences between heaven and earth that animate astrology, Sagittarius is associated with the end of fall, with fire, and with a choleric temperament.

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”.

GEMINI
In contemporary astrology, Gemini maintains a lot of characteristics from ancient times. It is a bit paradoxical that a sign defined by “dualism” has maintained a relatively constant definition over millennia. Or perhaps it is most true that the universe’s most fundamental definition is an ability to change. Represented by “the twins,” Gemini represents a dualistic, changeable nature. Gemini is associated with artists. A recent study showed a large number of prominent rappers have Gemini somewhere in their sun, moon, or rising. Gemini sometimes get a bad reputation for speaking out of both sides of the mouth, being unable to take a stand, or appearing to lie because they can speak to both sides of an issue. A recent American president often accused of speaking without regard for the truth has a lot of Gemini in his chart. Ultimately, Gemini embraces both good and bad, true and untrue, beautiful and ugly. In ancient times, the third sign of the western zodiac, Gemini symbolized the ambivalence of the cosmos. Gemini originated between 6500 B.C. and 4300 B.C. according to modern calculations. Typically depicted by “twins”, gemini represented the vital energy generated by the merging of opposites and the divisions of equal parts of day and night. Gemini twins represented the dual nature of many things - day and night, spirit and matter, extroversion and introversion, action and reception – and the dueling energy of sun and moon (Aries and Taurus). Twins were believed to be dynamic and regenerative, the source of all things from basic breathing to the dynamism of thought. In antiquity, the twins were worshiped as the patron saints of dance, bards, poetry & travelers. Due to their versatility and the fact that there are two dichotomous twins, Gemini was seen to be unstable, ambiguous and lacking a strong sense of identity. The mutable, shifting or fungible aspect of Gemini is its defining characteristic – perfect for the arts & handling any situation – through a shifting personality. In the ancient Greek world, the twins were represented by Castor and Pollux, who represented two contrary temperaments and attitudes – the former emotional and hard pressed to carry out what they had begun, and the latter insensitive, hyperactive, and skilled in handling any type of situation. Gemini was associated with the end of spring, with adolescence and with air.
