A Brief Introduction Astrology works through symbolism. Each planet has a different meaning. For example, Uranus represents high technology and Venus represents entertainment and recreation.
Most astrological charts are a geocentric chart, which is an earth-centered chart.
A few astrologers use a heliocentric chart which is a sun-centered chart. One very well known business cycle is the Venus-Uranus cycle. This planetary cycle affects the Dow Jones. The Dow is in a bullish trend when Venus is conjunct Uranus or Venus is trine Uranus. The Dow is in a bearish trend during squares and opposition.
