How Can Astrology Improve My Life?

Nearly everyone would like to know what the future will bring.  Can I look forward to happiness, prosperity, love or a new, rewarding career?  Astrology acts like a weather report, showing you where there are clear sunny skies or a sudden downpour.  At times when there are many challenges, astrology can point out the reasoning behind these difficulties and where we have to grow as an individual to be able to move beyond them. 

The study of the natal chart can reveal skills and tendencies that a person may not have been aware of becoming one of the most eye-opening events for many.  How can the planetary positions at the time of my birth know that I have a scientific mind, love the outdoors, enjoy the arts or have excelled in sports in school?  Just the idea that aspects of our personalities, even parts of us that were hidden from ourselves, are brought out into the open after a chart is cast is reason enough to give astrology the benefit of the doubt.  A person who didn’t know that they had an artistic flair could be inspired, after finding out about their hidden talent through astrology, to take art courses and eventually show their works in an art gallery.     

Astrology can let us know why we feel the way we do and when to stay calm and ride out the storm.  It can also tell us when to make a change in our lives that will renew and rejuvenate us.  Certain events are actually meant to keep us from stagnation and to get us moving and back onto our chosen path. 

The study of astrology also teaches us not to take life too seriously or personally.  Losing a job or the breakup of a relationship does not have to be experienced as failure.  Knowing that a change is coming in your life can negate the guilt and blame that is so often associated with relationship upheavals.
