The Three Qualities in Astrology

The three qualities in astrology are cardinal, fixed and mutable. Four signs share a quality:

  • Cardinal signs are aries, libra, cancer and capricorn.
  • Fixed signs are taurus, scorpio, leo and aquarius.
  • Mutable signs are gemini, sagittarius, virgo and pisces.

Qualities of the cardinal modality are:

  • skillful - beginning, initiating, originating, enterprising, direct and active;
  • unskillful – impatient, dissatisfied, does not finish what it starts, forceful.

Qualities of the fixed modality include:

  • skillful - stabilizing, focused, resolving, constant, determined;
  • unskillful - stubborn, rigid, obsessed, stuck.

Qualities of the mutable modality include:

  • skillful - adaptable, flexible, adjustable, changing, versatile;
  • unskillful - scattered, unfocused, inconsistent, indecisive and unfinishing.

 

The Astrological Polarities

Lastly, the zodiac signs are alternately positive and negative, beginning with the first sign, aries, which is positive. These are known as the polarities.

 

The Astrology Patterns

The pattern of elements and qualities in the astrological signs is constant—every third sign has the same element. Every fourth sign has the same quality. So, each of the twelve signs represents a different combination of element and quality. Signs associated with the same elements are in trine with each other (one hundred and twenty-degree angles between them) which is seen as being in harmony with each other. While signs of the same quality are "squared" meaning there is a ninety-degree angle between them. This traditionally has been termed "out of sympathy" with each other.

The Astrological Planets

The Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto are the astrological planets.

The planets in astrology provide the power, the energy and the principles while the astrological signs are the areas, circumstances and conditions through which they operate.

Astrological planets are colored by the signs they are in, as well as by that sign's ruler and co-ruler. When a planet is in the astrology sign that it rules, it is said to be in dignity, and when it is in the opposite astrology sign, it is in its detriment.

 

 

The Astrological Houses

The horoscope's division into twelve segments - the twelve houses - represents the twelve departments of life:

The First House takes its meaning for the ascendant and represents the self, the people and their behavior. It is linked to aries.
