The world of astrology is based on the influence of the stars on each zodiac sign and therefore on people according to a variety of factors, such as ascendant and decans, among others. First of all, it should be noted that there are two types of planets, the fast or personal ones and the slow or collective ones. Within the fast ones are the moon, the sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars, and within the slow ones are Saturn, Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus and Pluto.
The fast or personal planets are closer to the sun, this makes them more dynamic, energetic and spend less time at a certain point of the zodiacal wheel. Likewise, the further a planet is from the sun, its movement is slower, because they tend to spend more time at a certain point in the Zodiac, influencing the problems that arise if the transit is negative and favorable for longer. if it is positive.
It should be noted that the distances of the respective planets from the sun are as follows: Mercury is the planet that is closest to the Sun and takes 88 days to go around the sun, Venus takes 225 days, Earth 365 days, Mars 687 days, Jupiter takes 12 years in this process, while Saturn needs 29 years, Uranus 84, Neptune 165 and Pluto 248 years.
It is important to take into account the difference in the effect between the slow and fast planets, because the slow planets such as Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto determine significant events and situations in life for several years; while the fast planets: Mercury, Venus, Mars, the Sun and the Moon indicate mood changes from day to day, due to the speed of their movement derived from the greater proximity to the king star, so they have to do with temporary things that affect people, acting with their energies in a soft or light way.
In this way, the slow planets mark times of our lives, where we can do very well for a longer period of time, but we can also do very badly for a longer time and for this reason the signs governed by slow planets they must prepare themselves and overcome these problems little by little, fighting hard to overcome them.
On the other hand, each planet symbolizes some particular characteristic; For example, the Sun is the center of everything, the Moon represents ambitions, Mercury messages, Venus seduction, while Mars represents action. In the case of the so-called slow planets, we have that Saturn represents time, forms and structures, while Jupiter symbolizes order, Neptune absolutes, Uranus represents progress and Pluto discernment.
From there, we start to explain the characteristics of people according to their location in the zodiacal wheel, and therefore the influence of each of these planets in the way individuals act, and the tendencies in certain life situations, your preferences, among other things.
In this context, we are going to explain the specific characteristics that each planet grants as ruler in the zodiacal signs. In the case of Mars, it is the ruling planet of Aries and represents courage, impetus and leadership, and being a fast planet, it gives personal aspects to people born in the sign of Aries, attributing qualities to face the daily actions of the day. day to day and gives them fundamental conditions to build a future.
Consequently, Mars and Aries represent courage, risk, impatience, and for them the important thing is to get the resources and activate themselves, act in life situations, with dynamism and focus on what they do, it is paramount for this sign.
In the case of Mercury, this planet is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo, granting them the power of communication, understanding and creativity to act in life situations with agility, because those born under this influence are individuals who are restless, and very capable of addressing several issues or situations at the same time. Let us remember that this planet is also within the so-called fast and/or personal planets.
Due to the characteristics mentioned above, the two basic actions for a Virgo person are directed towards analyzing and thinking, while for a Gemini person the base is to communicate and link. In this way, Virgo thinks and analyzes things very well before acting in different situations, becoming the most detailed of the zodiacal wheel. Meanwhile, Gemini communicates his ideas and links them in order to make decisions, considering the importance, advantages and disadvantages of both parties.
Likewise, Venus as ruler of Taurus and Libra, gives them qualities for family communication, acting quickly in adverse situations where family members may be at risk. This planet is the symbol of love, affection and attraction, in addition to favoring everything that has to do with the artistic field.
For Taurus, the important and basic thing is to secure what they are looking for and then enjoy it, enjoy it to the fullest, which gives them a special attraction and allows them to handle situations not only in the family environment but also socially and in relationships. While Libra, he bases her actions on relationships with other people, considering that Venus gives her that power of communication.
As for the moon, this star gives a great feminine strength to the sign of Cancer, accompanied by an understanding that makes him take care of the feelings of his fellow men. Family, love, gestation and dreams are characteristic of this sign governed by the famous moon. So, the moon gives Cancer that ability to protect and feel, which brings them closer to their environment, but sometimes they hide their true feelings by hiding in a shell to protect themselves, although they give everything to protect others.
As for the sign of Leo, it must be said that the strength it possesses, dynamism and self-centeredness, are present in them thanks to the Sun, the king star, which gives them the greatest energy in the cosmos, turning them into avid, competitive individuals. communicative and cordial. In addition, their great personal and professional ambition reinforces it with a high level of self-confidence.
This is how the sun gives Leo that ability to express himself and be sure of himself, which attracts other people; since this security and knowledge of himself make him act forcefully and even, if left to him, he becomes authoritarian and bossy. They shine on their own, but they must not lose perspective by exaggerating their self-centeredness.
The famous Saturn governs the sign of Capricorn, giving it fundamental qualities for this sign, since they always seek justice in all their actions, and being ruled by Saturn, which is a slow or collective planet, makes their behavior tend to be straight, that is why it is said that they assume commitments with formality and great emotional balance, using such good sense that it makes them imperturbable. On the other hand, structures dominate in this sign, which makes them born fighters who fight for their goals to the fullest.
For its part, Jupiter governs Sagittarius, a planet that gives them a power of discernment that even reinforces their basic characteristics related to the acquisition of knowledge, dogmas and intimate values. In addition, those born under this sign see their seductive qualities, their splendid and sociable character, optimism and security reinforced, thanks to the influence of Jupiter.
In the case of Aquarius, this sign often identified as changeable and free, owes these characteristics to Uranus, which gives them originality, freedom and a futuristic approach, which sometimes gives them the label of misunderstood, because it acts in a very open to changes in both professional and love life. But they must be careful, because sometimes they get out of control and change very often, being unstable.
Pluto, for its part, governs Scorpio, which is also identified with changes and metamorphoses. This planet represents energy with sufficient capacity to revive events and people, giving them the strength to face their resentments and establish very specific relationships with sexuality, which is why they are often called the fiery ones of the zodiac.
Finally, Neptune is the ruler of Pisces, which gives the sign a great power of imagination, creativity, sentimentality, illusion and inspiration. Many people born under this sign are associated with art, worship and mysticism.
In summary, each sign has its own characteristics granted by its ruling planet, and although some share the planet, such as the cases of Gemini and Virgo governed by Mercury, and Taurus and Libra governed by Venus, therefore they share some characteristics but have others that the they differentiate. Likewise, the so-called slow or collective planets give one group of signs personal aspects or less dynamic qualities than the other group belonging to the fast or personal planets.
However, we must face the influence of planetary transits through our zodiacal signs with humility and commitment, regardless of the sign to which we belong. Thus, we must take advantage of positive influences in order to achieve our goals, while we must face negative influences with confidence, a positive mind and a willingness to learn from experiences, in order to achieve greater spiritual, personal and social evolution. Let us also remember that everything in life is a test that we must assume in the best possible way to become better human beings.
