Things are “written in the stars,” as the saying goes, and this is especially true for astrology believers. Whether you believe in it or not, astrology has been used to predict the future for thousands of years and continues to be a popular and entertaining method of doing so. People have often preferred to talk to astrologers online to find solutions to their problems.

Because so much about the universe remains unknown, those who rely on it for answers or predictions about their lives must exercise a great deal of faith in what the stars have to say. Even so, many people still consult astrologers for a daily, weekly, monthly, or annual horoscope analysis. While you probably already know what star sign you are, there is likely a lot about astrology that you are unaware of.

Here are 7 fascinating astrology facts that may change how you think about the stars.

The Moon May Have The Same Effect On The Body As It Does On The Ocean

The Moon’s influence causes ocean waves, and astrologers believe that the Moon has a similar effect on the body’s “waves.” Water makes up most of the human body, just as it does the ocean. When you hear someone say they’re acting strange because it’s a full moon, there could be some science to back it up. Of course, don’t use this as an excuse for bad behavior, but pay attention to how your mood shifts or doesn’t!.

Now that’s something interesting to know, don’t you think so?

Your Astrological Sign May Have An Impact On Your Physical Appearance

Your zodiac sign, according to astrologers, influences your appearance. Though it may seem far-fetched, astrologers online or offline believe they have discovered physical characteristics that are more prevalent in certain zodiac signs. Sagittarius natives, born between November 22 to December 21, are thought to have long, muscular legs, and female Sagittarius is said to have tomboyish behavior. Gemini natives, born between May 21-June 20, are known for their refined features and small bones. Scorpios from October 23-November 21 are said to have muscular and serious expressions on their faces.

The Zodiac Signs Consist Of Four Elements.- Fire, Earth, Air and Water

The astrological wheel has twelve zodiac signs, and they are further divided into four groups. There are the Fire signs – Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. The Earth signs consist of Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn follow. Then we have Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius making up the air signs. Lastly, the Water signs include the zodiac signs Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces.

Zodiac Signs Have Three Qualities

Now you know about elements (fire, earth, air, and water), but you’re probably unaware of the
“Qualities” of the zodiac signs. Just like we have elements in zodiac signs, we have qualities too, which are – Cardinal, Fixed, and Mutable. Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn are the Cardinal signs, and they are associated with beginnings, both of the spirit and the seasons. The Fixed signs are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius, and they are known for being stable, steady, firm, and even stubborn. Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces are Mutable signs associated with flexibility, adaptability and communication.

China, India, and Greece Used Astrology First

Astrology originated in Mesopotamia around 3000 BC. Following that, different cultures adopted the Babylonian beliefs and created their own beliefs and rules based on them. For example, in Greece, characters from Greek mythology were combined with star signs. To make astrology more accessible to the local population, astrologers in India and China combined religion and superstition with it. While it is now considered a pseudoscience by some, astrology was once a highly regarded profession.

Every Sign Has A Favorable Color

Have you ever noticed that you seem to be drawn to specific colors or feel most at ease in certain environments? Whereas some colors make you uncomfortable. It turns out that your feelings about colors may be influenced by your astrological stars. Purple is a favorable color for Sagittarius signs, and pink is a favorable color for Taurus born between April 20-May 20. Sea-green is a favorable color for Pisces, born between February 19-March 20, and blue is a favorable color for Libra, born between September 23-October 22. So, the next time you need a little luck, surround yourself with your favorite color or choose a token item in that color to keep with you. Let’s be honest: more luck never hurts!

The Real Meaning of Mercury Retrograde

Mercury in retrograde is an astrological term you’ve probably heard a lot but may be unsure of what it actually means. Mercury appears to stop and reverse (retrograde) three to four times a year, but this is just an optical illusion. As Mercury is associated with communications, short-term travel, speech, etc., these areas of life get affected. Many people report that certain items, such as laptops, computers, and phones, become inoperable when this happens. The Mercury retrograde could also cause challenges in your life. According to the best astrologers, you should be cautious about making firm plans during retrograde because they are more likely to come to nothing.
