The Planets

The Planets of Astrology

The Sun This is who you are, your ego, your true self, the manifestation of the creator, and what signifies your divine presence in the universe. The you in which is unique and cant be replaced , your life's essence is "The Sun". Most of our life source is provided by the rays of the Sun "Ra" and the powerful force that is hidden "Amen". 99.9 percent of your very existence depends upon the energy from the Sun, and metaphorically the Sun represents the higher self "Amen-Ra". Your personality is primarily based on the position of your Sun sign it takes from 28 to 30 days for the Sun sign to change, therefore it has a significant popularity in the media and everywhere else because of this.  Although the sign in which you were born under (Sun), is only a reflection you have a lot of other elements that define your true self, and these qualities are primarily expressed through the planets. Sun signs are divided into decanates of 30 degrees each, and this will be discussed later in the link entitled decans. Just about everyone knows their Sun sign, and are in awe and in fascination about how it describes people. Have you ever wondered why someone with the same Sun sign as you acts so differently? Well this is why I'm here to explain about the planets, relax and read on.

The Moon  Your emotions run deep, or do they? How your emotions are guided, how you react verbally to situations that require certain traits to come out has all to due with the placement of the Moon at your time, day, and year of birth. The Moon as represented by the mother reflects the sympathy, compassion, hatefulness, love, thought processes, and an instinctive reaction to the world around you. This position no matter what sign it is in definitely is the way you subconsciously take in information, then relate to that information in a conscious way. The position of the Moon is where the native is most comfortable in expressing his/her feelings for security. Moon phases are primarily ignored by the general public, because the powers that be despise people knowing the secrets in which the energy of the Moon possess. The phases represent certain emotional energies that relate to the way we as the human family react, so keep in mind that you have a spiritual aid in that big round greyish object in the sky.

Mercury  The planet of communication, relating in a verbal or non verbal way, this planet governs your social skills. It is important to communicate, and the manner you express yourself is mainly dependent upon the position that this planet resides in. Usually Mercury is in the same sign as the Sun, but it could be placed either one sign before the Sun, or one sign after the sun, depending on the position its in when the native is born. This is the planet of intelligence, if mercury is aspected strongly the native will have superior intelligence in the form of written or in fact verbal communication. If the planet has a adverse effect the native may be overtly shy, slow to speak, or even illiteracy can be detected. Mercury rules the conscious mindset, thinking processes, and the style in which one presents his/her case in private or in public. This planet represents all social media, computers, the latest technology, smartphones, and networking at all levels. Represented by the messenger in Greek mythology "Hermes, originally known as Thoth, or Tahuti in Kemet". The quick responsive nature of Mercury is rivaled by no other planet in its significance, and its contributing factors of speech and communication.

Venus  How and when you fall in love is ruled by the planet of beauty, partnership, cooperation, and affection, and that planet is Venus. Fashion conscious? Well that primarily deals with the position of Venus. Earning potential? also a Venus placement is the primary factor regarding how you obtain and gain thru the networking done by the energies of Mercury. Venus is refinement, grace, and vanity, it is also that evil Queen looking in the mirror asking the age old question "Who is the fairest of them all".  How you attract and interact with others would define the true meaning of Venus and its energies, but it is a lesser benefic giving good fortune to the native if placed in a position that supports this. Venus is the manipulator of the planets, placing extreme value on love relationships and the power of the almighty dollar. Venus restores order into love, Auset(Isis) is the progenitor of this love, and she represents Venus along with Mars producing the love child, who today call the Messiah!

Mars  Wanna Fight!! Well how you go about it depends on the position of this warrior planet we call Mars. Mars is always on the battle field, willing to conquer for the sake of spirituality. The position of Mars is definitely action in motion, unlike the moon which produces a reaction, Mars is where the action actually takes place. The sign that personifies the male ego, the self as a risk taker, and sex drive of the human family, brings initiative to the planets, and fulfills its role as the supreme competitor. This position is where rage ignites into action, and any sort of physical activity. Mars spends about six weeks in a sign, before traveling on into its rotation around the Sun for a total rotation of 2 years. This is the planet of the go-getter, where actions speak louder than words, where energy is manifested to its highest plateau. Confidence is a factor when you want to succeed in life, and Mars is the primary contributor of sound persistence and self-reliance. Way to go Mars!! 

Jupiter Feeling lucky, well you ought to be, because the planet which makes you feel this way is Jupiter the planet of the higher principles of life. This is your pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, this is how the manifestation of materiel, and spiritual wishes are granted. Jupiter is the extreme religious discussions you may have with your peers, heavy-religious related conversations with debates that in turn becomes an all-out party with fun, music, food and drink. Associated with many attributes such as travel, higher education, generosity, and most of all optimism, Jupiter may be the main indicator for wealth and happiness with tons of friends and associations. The planet of expansion, expanding whatever it comes into contact with, making this planet the most beneficial of them all in terms of being a glorious guide through life's trials and tribulations. Their is a silver lining for every cloud, and that silver lining in the world of astrology is non other than the planet Jupiter!!

Saturn  Restrictions, Restrictions, and more Restrictions!! Saturn is the reason why rules and laws are put in place, the father of time and space, the most serious planet of the 10. Where Saturn is positioned somehow gives us challenges that must be overcome in this life in order to fulfill our best potential. It is that guiding planet that instructs and teaches us whats wrong and whats right, what we can do, and what we can't do, the teacher, the critic, and the judge are all represented by this strict planet. Saturn governs the careers of us all, politics is also under the banner of Saturn, and so is hard work in many fields of expertise. This is the sign of the detail oriented perfectionist, the responsible adult that no-matter what seems to pull through obstacles which are put forth in front of him/her. Saturn represents the struggle to make it in this crude world, the lessons one learns thru trial and error. The sweat, and tears that come along with becoming an expert in a field of study, like a caterpillar being metamorphosed into a butterfly in a cocoon, the process can be tedious, but in the end it was well worth it. I liken Saturn to the army drill instructor. shaping a low life street thug into a soldier ready for war. 

Uranus The Planet of eccentricity, the lone star which does its own thing is Uranus. This planet brings to light the unconventional approach, with a touch of revolution, and spur of the moment spontaneity. The planet of imagination, innovation, freedom, and rebellion, and a lot of these traits may be solely dependent on where this planet is positioned.  Radical in nature natives who have a heavy emphasis of aspects with this planet, may act peculiar, strange, or even originally different in one way or another. This is a powerful planet indicating independence of thought, and action.  This is your typical rebel without a cause, the ringmaster who also moonlights as the clown; you’ll never guess what’s next!!Never trying to satisfy the status quo. Uranus sits alone in its own little space in the galaxy, basking in its indifference from the rest of the planetary alignments, yet still continues its long rotation around the Sun.  "I dare to be different" is the motto of the Uranus ruled native, and they will surely take on the dare.

Neptune  This is the planet that rules the imaginative mind, dreams, the media, and other aspects of the artistic mind. Named after the God of the waters "Neptune" which hails the three pointed pitch fork, and the deity which is said according to Greek mythology to rule the depths of illusion. When reality is distorted and blurred, this an indication that the native has traveled into the realm of illusion. Neptune is the fantasy of a never ending story, where life is filled with escapism, and illusions of grandeur. The truth can be far away in terms of how the Neptune native perceives reality, which can at times be observed through those big rose colored glasses he so often wears. Some astrologers and metaphysical critics claim that Neptune is the darkest of all the planets, making natives more prone to deception, and fraudulent victimization. Yet, this theory cannot be proven completely, due to the power that lies behind this veil of darkness, hiding in plain sight its power of magic!

Pluto The furthest and smallest planet from the Sun, is the planet Pluto. Pluto stands for power, simply put this planet personifies profound changes in life and in spirit. Journeying deep into the sub-conscious mind, we may find exactly what Pluto embraces. A great transformation takes place with this planet, a regenerative and effortless pattern of explicit behavior can at most times accompany this planet.  Criminal enterprises, gang life, organized crime, and the syndicate are all branches of the planet Pluto, but these functions may be contained as such with reverence to the part in which they were designed to play.  This unseen power that Pluto upholds is in no way dangerous to the native who has this planet as his/her ruler, it may be utilized to take advantage of, and become a major catalyst for growth and change. Secrets are kept in order to keep safe the ancient oracle's wisdom, and Pluto has been chosen to be the caretaker of this sort of wisdom.
