The Planets The Sun, the Moon and the eight major planets of the Universe form the basis for all astrology-related studies and analysis. The energies of these planets affect our lives in many different ways. In ancient times only the seven planets-namely Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were used for astrology purposes. Only in the last few centuries man has discovered the three outer planets of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto and introduced them into his astrological studies. Planetary Groupings
