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.

ARIES

In contemporary astrology, Aries is associated with initiation. Not always regarding all the details, the Aries can be counted on to take initiative, jump in, and be first. Aries is associated with fire. Oftentimes in undertaking initiative in a fiery way, Aries can also be associated with the opposite traits of Libra (opposing sign), e.g. lacking diplomacy. Aries is associated with independence, individualism, and the capacity to jump first into the action, the conversation, or the fire. In ancient astrology, Aries designates the rebirth of the sun in springtime (after the winter darkness) and the regeneration of energy in the cosmos. Because of these symbolic functions, Aries acquired the name of the “best star” in the zodiac. Aries became the star that witnessed biblical creation (at the time of the birth of Christ). However, Aries was not always the first sign of the zodiac. This change placing Aries as the first sign of the zodiac did not occur until roughly 3 B.C. Prior to this, a feminine sign, Virgo, was associated with the birth of fall and the harvest, was the first sign of the zodiac. The epochal change of the first sign of the zodiac from Virgo to Aries marked the transition from a feminine, matriarchal conception of the world to a patriarchal type of universe ruled by male divinities. Aries signified the renewal of the equinox and the victory of the sun gods (masculine) over the constellations of the moon (feminine). In ancient times, Aries signified charity and benevolence. Aries was symbolized by the Ram and was often associated with the Christ figure (Easter is during Aries season) through a representation of the good shepherd and the sacrificial lamb. Aries expressed creative impulse, courage and independence – but also had an explosive, untamed aggression (like a ram). Aries corresponds to the beginning of spring, to youth, to fire and a temperament of “dry heat”. Aries is symbolized by the Ram’s head, the male organ, and the first sprouting of seeds.

CAPRICORN

In contemporary astrology, Capricorn is represented by a goat and we dare say the recent meme of “GOAT” (“Greatest Of All Time”) is inspired by Capricorn. Capricorns are goal-oriented pragmatists. Capricorns are often associated with professionalism because the Capricorn wants to make sure goals are achieved. It is a preference for achievement with tangible results that often leads to Capricorn being associated with professional advancement, but the goal seeking can be applied to anything : emotions, spirituality, or socializing. In other words, in whatever the Capricorn does, they are the “GOAT”. Capricorn originally derived from the Sumerian god Ea (the wise) who created the sublunar world, and from a Chaldean deity whose form combines a fish and wild boar. Seasonally, Capricorn coincides with the winter solstice and symbolizes the sun’s rebirth from death and the winter’s darkness. In antiquity, the region of the sky occupied by Capricorn was considered a celestial passage through which the human sphere could communicate with the divine. Capricorn represented the dimension of the astral plane which linked the manifested with the unmanifested. Mankind’s gate, the Tropic of Cancer, corresponding to the Summer Solstice, was restricted to descending souls that would become incarnated into a body. The Tropic of Capricorn, however, was associated with the Gate of the Gods and was reserved for immortal beings – spirits released from the reincarnation cycle – to return to the region of the stars. In other words, the gate of spiritual transcendence. In observance of esoteric tradition, around the time of the winter solstice the Romans celebrated the birth of Sol Invictus (the undefeated Sun) on December 25th, which later became the date of Christ’s birth. From an astrological point of view, Capricorn denoted detachment from the body and matter, perseverance and prudence, industriousness, and a sense of duty. Capricorn was associated with the beginning of winter and with old age.

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”.

CANCER

In contemporary astrology, cancer represents sensitivity, the maternal, and the home. Like the crab who can walk forward and backwards in response to the tide, cancer represents a sensitive, intuitive nature which can respond in delicate increments to situations around them. Cancer is associated with everything to do with the home or in other words, domestic. Cooking, cleaning, staying in and nesting on the couch, tending to the emotional needs of others – or in other words, attributes of home-making - are all associated with Cancer. Cancer in antiquity was the sign of summer and the moon. Considered a sign of the unconscious, clairvoyance, and fertility, the ancient Greeks represented the sign of cancer as an Octopus, an animal symbol linked to embryonic life. Cancer was also symbolized by the crab, which slows its walk to go backwards, almost like the sun as it begins to “station” in the sky just prior to the summer solstice. During the slowing months of the summer when the sun “stations” longer in the sky, cancer represents the return of the psyche into the maternal womb, germinative life, and regenerating fruitfulness. Similar to the seeds gestating in the field, and like a baby in the womb, Cancer represents a time of maternal incubation and generation. Neoplatonists believed that the Cancer constellation was one of two heavenly gates which the soul transited through on the path to bodily reincarnation (the Tropic of Cancer area of the sky.) Cancer is also linked to the moon and water, so it represents a constant state of becoming. Sometimes said to be restless and hyper emotional, Cancer was also known to be capable of future rebirths. Cancer ultimately corresponded to motherhood, and the gestation of the field during summer in preparation for harvest, like a child in the womb.
