Well, let me tell you about this astrology thing, what they call a “persona chart.” I don’t know much about fancy book learnin’, but I’ll tell you what I understand.
What’s this chart all about?
See, they say everyone’s got a regular ol’ birth chart, right? That’s like the map of the sky when you were born. But this persona chart, it’s somethin’ different. It’s like, they take that birth chart, and then they look at when the sun hits each of them planets in your chart. And for each of them planets, they make a whole new chart. It’s like you got a bunch of little you’s inside you. They call ’em “inner personalities.” Sounds kinda crazy, don’t it?
- They say there’s twelve of these little you’s. Like, one for each sign of the zodiac, I guess.
- And each one’s supposed to be different, ya know? Like, maybe one’s all happy-go-lucky, and another one’s a real grump.
How do they figure it out?
Now, this part gets a bit complicated. They talk about degrees and minutes and “navamsa.” I ain’t got no idea what all that means. Sounds like a bunch of mumbo jumbo to me. Something about dividin’ the sky up into little pieces. They do a lot of figurin’ with numbers. Each of them signs, they got 30 degrees, and then they chop that up into nine pieces. And then they multiply that by 12. My head’s spinnin’ just thinkin’ about it!
Is it real, or just a bunch of hooey?
Well, some folks swear by it. They say these persona charts can tell you all sorts of things about yourself, like why you do the things you do, and what makes you tick. They say it can help you understand your different sides. But then there’s other folks, the smarty-pants types, who say it’s all just a bunch of nonsense. They say it ain’t no better than guessin’. They did some tests, they say, and the astrology stuff didn’t work no better than just plain luck. They call it “pseudoscience.” Big word, huh?
What’s a Grand Cross?
Now, this is somethin’ I heard about, called a “Grand Cross.” Sounds important, right? It’s when you got four planets in your chart, all lined up in a square. Like, they’re all 90 degrees apart. They say it’s real rare, and it means you got a lot of challenges in your life. But I figure everyone’s got challenges, whether their planets are lined up or not. Life ain’t easy, no matter what the stars say.
So, what do I think?
Well, I don’t know. Maybe there’s somethin’ to it, maybe there ain’t. I reckon it’s like anything else, you gotta take it with a grain of salt. It’s kinda fun to think about, I guess. But I wouldn’t go makin’ no big life decisions based on it. You gotta use your own common sense. And common sense ain’t somethin’ you find in the stars, that’s for sure.
But hey, if it makes you happy, and it helps you understand yourself a little better, then maybe it ain’t so bad. Just don’t go blamin’ the stars for your troubles. You gotta take responsibility for your own actions, no matter what the charts say.
At the end of the day, it’s up to you what you believe. Me, I’m just an old woman tryin’ to make sense of the world. And sometimes, the world just don’t make no sense at all, stars or no stars.
But if you’re curious about this stuff, go ahead and look into it. Just don’t get too carried away. Remember, you’re the one drivin’ the bus, not the planets.
And that’s about all I got to say about that. Hope it made some kinda sense to ya.
