This Astrology business.
We are now well into the middle of the year of 2016, and our generation are still baffled with the workings of astrology. It has been called ''rubbish'' , ''devils work'', ''magic'', ''divination,'' ; and what not. In truth it is something that is working within and without of us, working on some sort of electromagnetic waves; and of course having time and space as partners. I have been for a very long time trying to see if I can discover how it really works; and to tell you the truth, it works; and I still don't know why. I find that it is good to know certain things that it has to offer--like guiding your children in the right way. I have discovered that if you have children who are born under the sign of Virgo, that you have to be very careful how you bring them up. These children sees every single thing that is going on around them; and they record them, keeping it with them down into old age. You can also have children who are not born under Virgo but have many planets in that sign. Virgo is the sixth sign of the Zodiac; and it has to do with health, sickness, colleagues., pets, and work. I will now show you how you can understand astrology in a simple way. If you have the time, get some A four paper. Draw a round circle. Draw a line in the center from left to right; and one from the top to the bottom. On the left of the middle line is east; over on the right of the middle line is West. Now the line from the top through the bottom--the top is North, and the bottom is south. You can also get a blank astrological wheel from the internet. The line that is going from left to right across the middle, is known as the horizon. The left side is where the degrees and signs rise, according to the rotation of our earth on its axis, and the sun in its movements along the ecliptic. 1 degree is equal to four minutes, which is equal to one year of life on earth. The left hand side, is also known as the ascendant; it has to do with you, it is your personalty. Whatever sign and degrees are rising at that moment, all has to do with yourself. The whole circle has 12 departments called houses. Each house has 30 degrees so that the whole circle is 360 degrees. Once you know your date of birth, the time of day; the month and the year; and the place, like town and country, then you can begin to see what is in store for you. You can also get it done on the internet. What I am going to do now is show you the chart of Annie Oakley because her story is well-known; and you can see for yourself what astrology is all about; and how it is supposed to be working. Annie Oakley was born on the 13th August 1860, at 12.00pm, North Star, Ohio, USA. On the left of your circle which you have drawn, you can fill in 11 degrees and 25 minutes of the sign SCORPIO. This tells us that she come under this sign as her ascendant and personality.
