The relationship between astrology and planetary cycles and success

Astrology studies everyone's birth chart, which corresponds to a picture of how the stars were positioned in the sky at the time of their birth. This position involves the astrological houses and the signs of the zodiac. Why aren't all planets in the same house and in the same sign? Because each planet has a “planetary cycle”, that is, it moves through the 12 signs (zodiacal belt) at different speeds. The moon, the Earth's natural satellite, is not a planet, but is treated as an important astrologically and is the fastest moving (28 days), while Pluto is the slowest (248 years).

The planetary cycles of the other stars are Sun - 1 year, Mercury and Venus - approximately 1 year, Mars - 2 to 2 and a half years, Jupiter - 12 years, Saturn - 29 and a half years, Uranus - 84 years and Neptune 165 years.

As the planets Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are the three slower ones, they are considered "generational" planets, as they do not affect a single individual, but many generations, because they appear positioned in the same sign for many decades, affecting what the scholar of human psyche Carl Jung called the “collective unconscious”.

Through the analysis of the birth chart, it is possible to analyze certain characteristics of the human being, including his predisposition to success. Two stars that have a lot to do with success are the sun and the moon – they are luminary planets and, therefore, they talk about light, brightness, highlight, fame, popularity.

The sun has a masculine polarity, so its brightness is directly related to its actions. The moon, on the other hand, has a female polarity, so its prominence comes from its reactions.

When placed in house 1, the ascendant house, which is how the world sees us, will reveal a person who shines in the eyes of others, which ends up attracting a lot of success!

The 12th or middle house of heaven agrees a lot with the term “success”, as it is a house that represents status, ambition, desire, fame, where we aim to reach this incarnation. It also has to do with how we deal with the need for others' approval.

Another very relevant star for this issue of glory is the planet Venus, also known as the "planet of love", has a very strong form of magnetism, capable of attracting and manifesting what we desire. Knowing where Venus is and how to manifest it in our daily actions is an effective way to attract success into our lives.

For example, if an individual has Venus in Pisces in the 5th house, it means that he can easily magnetize and attract to himself what he wants when he acts as a Pisces in ​​life that corresponds to the astral fifth house. This house refers to hobbies, games, ways we awaken our inner child. The sign of Pisces, on the other hand, refers to everything that is playful, hidden, sentimental. So, this individual could use recreational forms of leisure, such as painting, sculpture, dance, singing, theater and, during the execution of this activity, could mentalize what he wants for his life, easily attracting through the planet's magnetism Venus.

It is important to remember that “success” varies from person to person, depending on their main purpose in life. There are those who seek success in financial life, relationships, academic life, athletics, and many other fields.

So, it is necessary to analyze the stars that are related to each sector. For example, if you are looking for glamor in intellectual life, it is important to analyze the placement of mercury, a planet that is related to forms of communication, such as writing, reading, speaking. We could also analyze the locations of the planets of the element air, which are planets linked to mental activity. House 9 could also be studied, a house that talks about what we choose to study and delve into, of our own free will, free of obligations.

If the person is seeking success in love life, it would be necessary to study the planet Venus, as well as the signs of the water element, which relate to our feelings, as well as the 7th house of the birth chart, which speaks of partnerships and relationships.

So, for this analysis, the first point to consider is in which area of ​​your life you are looking for success. The second point is to understand which the stars and astrological houses are related to this topic. The third point is to study your positions and what this reveals about your journey. But one can take into account the strong relationship between success and luminous signs (sun and moon), as well as the astral tenth house or mid-heaven, which reveals where we aim to go in life!
