Astrology is the ancient study of how celestial bodies such as the Sun, Moon, and planets influence human life and events on Earth. For thousands of years, civilizations including India, Babylon, Greece, and Egypt used astrology to understand personality traits, destiny, and life cycles.
The foundation of astrology is the belief that the moment you are born creates a unique cosmic map called a birth chart. This chart shows the exact position of planets in the zodiac at the time of birth.
Astrologers analyze this chart to understand personality patterns, emotional tendencies, strengths, weaknesses, and possible life events.
