Planets in Your Birth Chart

Each planet is located in a certain zodiac sign and house of the horoscope on your date of birth. Their position influences certain sectors of life and the manifestation of our personality, our temperament and character.

Mercury in our chart is responsible for the way we think, communicate, and show our curiosity. If you need to get ready for a new round of studies or help a child learn to study, it would be a good idea to pay attention to the zodiac sign, in which Mercury is placed. This information will prompt you an easier way to work with data, learn and communicate – whether you should read information aloud or rely on your better developed visual memory. Would you be better off learning in a team to get praised all the time? Or, on the contrary, will you benefit from staying on your own to go through learning material properly?

Venus is responsible for pleasure, the way you make choices, and sensuality. The sign, in which Venus is in, will reveal what drives your choices and what you value; how you feel about love and your weaknesses that you tend to indulge.
In a man’s chart, the characteristics of Venus make it clear which woman appears to be attractive to a man as a sexual partner.

Mars is the planet responsible for action. It will show how you take your first step in any activity and how you should act in order to start. The position of Mars can also tell us how we show ourselves in our work.
The characteristics of Mars in a woman’s chart describe what kind of sexual partner is attractive to her.

Jupiter and Saturn are the social planets in astrology, which influence the way a person communicates, perceives their life, fits into society and complies with its rules, rather than produce a direct effect on a person’s character.

Jupiter symbolizes your development, expansion of boundaries, opportunities, success, high status, professional effectiveness. The way Jupiter is placed in your chart indicates where you might be most fortunate, what you strive for, as well as your ethical principles.

Saturn represents stability, rigor, and order. Saturnian energies help you fit into society with inner pivot and self-control, sense of duty, and responsibility. The position of Saturn in your chart can reveal your fears and limitations, as well as the way you are able or unable to comply with the rules and norms accepted in your society. The house where Saturn is placed indicates the area where you do or do not learn most of life lessons.

In astrology, planets like Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are called the higher planets. They change their zodiac sign once every few years, so they influence entire generations, society as a whole, and – through society – individual humans. In the case of the higher planets, the house of the horoscope shows, into which area of life a respective higher planet channels its energy.

Uranus is responsible for innovation, predicting the future, freedom, revolutionary concepts, and the urge for change. The position of Uranus indicates an area where we feel rebellious and behave accordingly.

Neptune is responsible for intuition, fantasies, dreams and illusions. Neptune’s position in the chart can show, in which sector of life we are prone to illusions and self-deception. This information will enable you to shift your focus and pay increased attention to this area. You may want to listen to other people’s advice when it comes to these matters.

Pluto stands for transformation, the death of the old and the birth of the new. Pay attention to which house this planet is in. The respective spheres or environments will see most of your transformations and it is there that you tend to manifest your personal energy for others to benefit.
