It was the people looking up at them who changed as they began to realize that they could indeed choose, that every energy can be used in a positive or negative way, that they could be the masters or mistresses of their own fate. Here at the dawn of the 21st Century, we stand before a new doorway leading to increased understanding of the role of astrology in our lives. As the energies of the Age of Aquarius grow in strength, uniqueness, individuality and the freedom to pursue our own paths will be increasingly emphasized. Yet in an age that emphasizes choice, it is important to stop and realize that choice does not spring out of a vacuum. Astrology helps us to see a glimpse of the future waiting ahead of us by showing us the backdrop against which our choices will be made.
Character is destiny.
I believe to some extent our future is predetermined. It is shaped by our genes, by our environment, by the impact of those around us. But astrology tells us that none of these things write upon a blank slate. There is something there already. That something is pictured in the birth chart.
