What is Real Astrology?

Astrology:
Astrology is all about the Earth's relationship with the planets and all of the heavenly bodies above and how their movement and 'interactions' affect us and the environment here on earth. Each planet symbolizes a certain force or energy as do each of the 12 zodiac signs, They are constellations, which are 12 bodies or groups of stars that surround the Earth. They are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.
Your Astrological Chart:
Your astrological chart is like a photograph of the universe at the exact time of your birth. Everything in the sky both above and below the horizon is thought to effect the individual born 'below'. Most astrologers deal primarily with the sun, the moon, the planets, and the constellations (or groups of stars) their position in the sky - their relationship to each other and their positioning or angles to you. Some astrologers when compiling an astrological chart will include the fixed stars and some still may even include the asteroids too! No two astrological charts will ever be identical. Your own personal astrological chart or any other astrological chart ever 'drawn' is as unique as your finger prints.
Your Star Sign:
When people refer to their 'sign' they are (know it or not) referring to which of the 12 constellations or groups of stars that surround the earth that that the sun was transiting (moving through) at the exact time of their birth.
Real Astrology:
What you might call 'real' astrology goes far beyond your sun sign or the horoscopes that are so prevalent in newspapers and magazines worldwide. Such horoscopes are far too generalized and fanciful to be of any real use to anybody and most have reached a point of pure titillation with perhaps some 'real' or even useful astrological facts in amongst the pseudo-astro banter. Though usually written by real astrologers "horoscopes" in general do real astrology a grave in-justice as most horoscopes (but not all) are now written purely for the large sums of money that the mass media is prepared to pay for these now entertainment only star signs'.
