I think you may be looking at the connection between the personification of the "planetary energy" and the physical planet too literally.... to my knowledge, Mars (god of war) does not actually reside physically on mars i.e. if that planet exploded, his influence (as part of the astrological conceptual framework) would continue as its not dependent on the material planet, after all, he is a god, a non-physical entitiy....

[deanopumpkin]

practically, symbolism is used to create a conditioned behaviour e.g. you see a flashing police siren and you check your speed, your seatbelt, seatbelts of those in the car, your heart rate rises a little... all because you have been conditioned through the language of symbolism of a little blue light

if all the planets fell out of the sky, I imagine life would change, the symbolism wouldn't explode with the planet.

[deanopumpkin]

Aspiring potato, planets have no reason to explode.... but going along with the idea, in the event that one did, it wouldn't matter, because astrology is a language of symbolism.

symbolism is used to explain concepts for people who lack the ability to understand their true esoteric meaning.

Oh, good an expert.

Question: If a planet blows up what happens to astrological readings?

Question: If someone was born and died on another world what happens to their astrological readings?

Question: Why didn't the ancient civilizations who invented this see their own demise coming?

OMG I LOVE YOU!!! I've been trying to make morons understand the same about symbolic sciences. It's amazing how most of the people are so ignorant about psychology, symbolism and culture. That's is why this world doesn't work properly, because of the bunch of ignorants. You rock!.

I would like to see your natal chart. Give me your date of birth, time and place. And I will send you the analysis back to see if it's irrational. But give me the real information, otherwise don't waste any of our time.

Aries is on the cusp of John's first house but you can have more than one sign in a house hence Aries and Taurus in his first.
