Who are we? What makes us the way we are? These days we seem to have all the answers. We know that we inherit characteristics from our parents and ancestors and that we are profoundly influenced by our environment. Astrology maintains that all living things are influenced by forces caused by the constantly changing positions of the Sun, Moon, and planets that make up our solar system and the annual orbit of our planet around the Sun.
Western, or occidental, astrology is based on the yearly passage of the Earth around the Sun. The passage is divided into twelve segments (the twelve Signs) that take their names from the far-away constellations of stars that have been named after ancient gods, people, and mythical beasts.
