what is astrology?
according to Oxford learner’s dictionaries, astrology is “the study of the positions of the stars and the movements of the planets in the belief that they influence human affairs”
most of the time we work with a birth chart that's like a scheme of the sky at a precise time and place. it can be the day you were born, the date of the next election in your country, or even your favorite book’s date of publication. or simply the current day and position you’re at right now.
(this is my birth chart for example)
how can i use it?
astrology can be used for almost anything, but especially to know more about yourself and the people around you or to predict something. in witchcraft you can also use the phases of the moon for spells and to know when to do or not to do something. you can also just use it for funsies, personally i love to imagine what fictional characters’ birth charts would look like :33
