Introduction

It is a branch of astronomy, founded out of the Greek words Astron, which translates to star, and logos, which means study, reason, or word. The first advanced civilizations providing a foundation are the Egyptians, Greeks, Mesopotamians, and Indians. The basic concepts are as follows, namely that the changes in the behavior of the natures and the movements of the celestial objects predict patterns and trends in occurrences.

History

Many different civilizations and areas of the world have played their part in the extensive past of astrology. Its origin came from Mesopotamia, where early astronomers used stars and other relative entities for crop needs assessment and in divination, and India, where it was religious in nature. The Egyptian form of astrology depended on religious and mythological aspects of life and death and the destiny of a person. To further help with the navigation of ships, the Greeks enhance astronomical observation even more. The theory of Hellenistic astrology was introduced to the world by an astronomer named Claudius Ptolemais more than a thousand years ago in his four-volume work titled Tetrabiblos during the second century of our Common Era.

Eastern astrology

Eastern astrology is also known as Chinese astrology, and it follows the twelve-year cycle of the twelve zodiac animals, such as Rat, Ox, Tiger, and many others, besides animal zodiacs; other than this, there are five elements or seasons, namely wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. This concept is tightly connected to Chinese culture and mentality peculiarities on the basis of yin and yang interaction as well as five elements. 

Western astrology

Western astrology follows the positions of the sun, the moon, and the planets with respect to twelve zodiacs, beginning from Aries according to the Gregorian calendar. It depends upon horoscopes and houses and has its root in Babylon and the Greeks’ world. Although both systems provide completely different visions of the person, Eastern astrology is more likely to take a view on the time cycles and balancing energies, while Western astrology is more personality-oriented and defines a person by peculiarities resulting from the position of planets and stars at the moment of birth.

Astrology has gone through the ages with evidence of its existence as far back as ancient civilizations and is now in existence today. It is either through the push and pull of stars or the beats and measures of zodiacs; astrology offers a way of understanding the cosmos and ourselves. 

Even as 2025 is fast approaching, there is no question that astrology’s power to perhaps guide people towards enlightenment is still feasible. For more detailed information about how astrology can shed light on various aspects of life, please do refer to our other blogs on astrology.
