Considering the Sun, the Moon, and the Planets

The Sun, the Moon, and the planets play individual parts in your horoscope. Their meanings are as follows:

The Sun represents your essential self, will, individuality, vitality, and desire for power. More than any other planet, it represents who you are. It also symbolizes men in general.

The Moon represents your emotions, subconscious, instincts, habits, and memory. It also represents women in general.

Mercury symbolizes your style of communication, your reasoning ability, and the way you think.

Venus represents those parts of your life that are concerned with love, attraction, beauty, possessions, and the arts.

Mars is the planet of desire and aggression. It represents your physical energy, combativeness, enterprise, and courage.

Jupiter is the planet of expansion and good fortune. It represents growth, prosperity, abundance, wisdom, generosity, and the higher mind. Jupiterís position in a horoscope tells you where youíre lucky.

Saturn represents limitation, restriction, caution, organization, endurance, and discipline. It tells you where you have to face your fears ó and also where youíre ambitious.

Chiron, a dwarf planet discovered in 1977, represents past hurt and future healing. Astrologers, not all of whom use Chiron, often associate it with holistic medicine.

Uranus represents originality, independence, rebelliousness, inventiveness, insight, and everything unexpected.

Neptune represents spirituality, dreams, psychic ability, intuition, disintegration, compassion, self-sacrifice, deception, and illusion.

Pluto represents elimination, destruction, regeneration, renewal, and transformation.

One way to simplify all this is to assign a single word - or, as astrologers prefer to say, keyword - to each planet. These keywords, which summarize each planetís meaning, appear in Table 1-3.
