I just wanted to make a comment on that, though, as it helps prove astrology wrong. The way they figure out what "Sun sign" you are is simply by noting what constellation on the zodiac the Sun is in at your time of birth. Well, as Gemworlf said, that would be Gemini, according to astrology. Though, going by the cold, hard facts we see this...

Astrology – horoscopic astrology to be precise – is nothing more than a cheap trick.

I have heard it said, that just as the Moon has an effect on the Earths tides or even woman.. so too does the Planetary masses. This is what I have heard, and about the only part of astrology I will entertain. Obviously today we understand that the Moons gravity influences the tides, but people back then did know about gravity.
Back in the old days, astrology was considered complicated, today knowledge is wide spread. Every one almost, can add, back then uh no.
It is the planetary influences astrology claims effects us. Back then Mars was the War God, when Mars was close, it was beleived it's influence would have some properties, just as the Moon does the tides.

It's called precession and it means you are a starsign off by very ~2400 years.

Just curious...where might I find these star charts of the night sky?

The distance of the planets from each other really hasn't changed for billions of years, so I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "when Mars was close."
Good! I wanted to see if someone knew about that. Though I think it's closer to about 4000 years that everything is off, as most of the observing of the night sky was done then by the ancient Egyptians, Chinese, and Greeks. Also, back then, the star Thuban in the constellation of Draco was the "North Star."
And where are all of ATS's astrologers...?

Can you elaborate? How does astrology help you in magic, and if it does, what branch of magic is it?

Lets say you want to do a magical ritual to get a raise at work.
This is for Western Ceremonial Magick, but really many people use something like this.

I like the normal way of doing your job incredibly well and asking and/or getting noticed for it. I guess I'm just old fashioned.

The Moon and the Sun both affect the tides. As for the effect on people? I think it's pretty much nil, despite what the new agers say.
