Exploring Astrology: Secrets of Stars and Zodiac Signs

What is Astrology?

Astrology is an ancient practice that studies the positions and movements of celestial bodies, such as the sun, moon, and planets, and their influence on human life. By analyzing the positions of the stars at the time of birth, astrology makes predictions about personality, destiny, and life trends. It’s not an exact science, but a belief system and interpretive framework based on observations and accumulated experience over centuries.

Applications of Astrology

Astrology can be used not only to understand oneself but also in many other areas such as choosing the right time for business, investment, marriage, and many other important life decisions. However, it’s important to remember that astrology is only a supporting tool, not the absolute answer to every problem.
