Our Planetary Neighbors
Our solar system with its central Sun and revolving nine planets, together with our own, is of major significance to us as we live here on our wee Earth. However, we are reminded of the fact that our system is only one of millions of worlds in the heavens and that there are many and glorious galaxies and suns greater than our own.

However, as we enumerate to our own family of planets we are implicated with very vital energies that radiate to work on all natural life on our own small world. Here, each planet's energy although invisible, is responsible in creating a climate of planetary soldiery to which we react, although in the main it may be unconsciously. In the same but more confident way, we all react to our weather conditions and the natural elements in our corporal environment.
Astrologers over the centuries have studied the planetary influences upon our human nature and psychological attitudes as upon other forms of natural life, seeking to discover causation, effects and the very reasons for our existence. As astronomers focus upon the corporal nature and aspects of the planets, astrologers learn to anticipate the potential influences that engender confident human activities and actions. The science behind astrology offers a degree of self estimation that encourages self culture and self belief straight through determination of any current blend of planetary energy and utilizing it to our advantage. In expanding we can be alerted to any need for caution in our enterprises.
The Sun is of procedure the most powerful. For the purposes of astrology, it bears the name of a planet but like the Moon, it is strictly a luminary. As the Sun symbolizes the spiritual nature of an individual, the enduring qualities and the talents, good fortune and wealth of a person, the Moon represents the changing and ranging tides of events and emotions. Both are leading in regard to health and well being that depends upon harmony in the middle of the masculine, galvanic vitality and the opposite feminine or magnetic soldiery of the Moon. In interpreting a chart, these symbols can be seen to refer to the two prime energies within each of us, or outwardly, by representing parents or others who play a vital role in our lives.
Mercury, once seen as the messenger god flying in the middle of spirit and matter, it represents the mind with its capabilities of ranging in both abstract and material realms of thought. Its position in the chart and the association with other planets and energies shows our type of mental and our intellectual skills in communication.
Venus is all the time seen as the planet of love and harmony and portrayed as a goddess. All feminine qualities are seen to enumerate to love and most importantly, to beauty in all things. It is strongly linked to the decorative as well as the musical arts and to our material good fortune and involvement in true romance.
Mars energy is ready to fight struggles, to utter self preservation or to defend all that is worthwhile. It represents personal courage and was often represented as a knight in shining armour, willing to fight to the death for its cause. In our personal life its energy can incline us towards inappropriate aggression or to grant the gift of leadership and enthusiasm.
Jupiter is the grand planet of wealth and good fortune. Its work on inclines us to huge generosity and abundant health and success but only if we are willing to conduce personal effort. Those who are lazy by nature are apt to 'trust to luck' and await things happening come to be too dependent upon Jupiter.
Saturn is commonly carefully as a planet with a negative work on but this is not a true account because it has deep and far reaching work on upon our lives beyond passing restraints and frustrations. It is known as the instrument of cosmic justice or Karma and distributes with impartiality the energies which must be returned to us for our past deeds, both good and bad.
Uranus causes unusual events, unconventional relationships and unexpected behaviour. Its work on has been responsible for urging our postponement of interests and our sciences into the unknown mysteries of space. It is best known as the herald of the Aquarian Age - forthcoming duration of enlightenment beyond cultural and spiritual purpose seeking the truth about existence, not only on our planet, but in the realms beyond.
Neptune is the planet ruling our emotions and our feelings in a separate way from the ensue of the Moon. It plays upon our unconscious or nebulous and psychic feelings and tends to make us dream and to launch our poetic inclinations. But it can make us victim of drugs and flee situations if we allow negative habits to destroy us.
Pluto is small and distant a planet. It has a qualified ensue upon us, although this has only been analysed since its comparatively up-to-date discovery. Much of its work on affects humanity as a whole as it is the power that persuades unions, monopolies and global enterprises to emerge. It remains somewhat mysterious and we recall that it was named the god of the underworld. Only a wise astrologer will be confident in interpreting its full role in our life.
We must get to know and to respect all our neighboring planets if we seek not only to understand the components of our own nature but to lift a wee of the veil that cloaks the magnitude of Great Nature and its purposes in the heavens.
