If you have ever read a astrological disk , you may notice that there are some numbers next to each position. Venus is 15 degrees Taurus. The sun is 0 degrees in Sagittarius. And what do these degrees represent? What are their special meanings?
Key degrees
degrees
Although most people will not associate astrology with mathematics itself, astrologers actually do a lot of math and geometry calculations when doing horoscopes and reading birth charts. The birth chart is arranged at 360 degrees of the eclipse. The circle is then divided into 12 areas, consisting of 12 constellations, each area is 30 degrees. They are then divided again into three 10-degree angles, also known as 10-degree surfaces, each 10-degree surface.
birth chart is a snapshot of the universe when you breathe for the first time. This includes the signs and degrees of the planet. This is why it is important to know when you are creating a chart. Even a half hour interval can change the degree of a planet or ascendant.
degrees is also the reason why the concept of "dividing the palace" is unreal, and the degree of planets moving is very accurate. You are the sun in Libra , even if you were born on October 22 and the sun is 29 degrees Libra. It is important to complete the horoscope reading, especially if your sign changes when you are born. Both may be born on August 23, but depending on the time, one may be the 29-degree Leo sun, and the other may be the 0-degree Virgo sun.
Each degree in your chart has a special meaning because nothing is considered random in astrology. However, some degrees will be more important than others. These are called "criticality".
critical degrees
critical degrees are ideal degrees in degree theory, that is, some degrees on the ecliptic will bring more challenges than others. They can lead to the worst but also the best. Understanding the challenges posed by degrees can help you gain insight into how to make the most of your life journey. Let's look at some criticality.
The entrance to the constellation — 0°
The degree of entry occurs at the moment when the planet enters the new constellation. This is indeed the beginning of a constellation season, or the beginning of a planet traveling through the constellation.
Because this is the beginning, you can feel the constellation where the planet is located here. If you were born with a sun of 0 degrees Virgo, then you were very Virgo and all these traits were strongly felt. If you were born when Venus first entered Scorpio, all the traits of Venus in Scorpio will be strengthened.
you will get the freshest traits of this sign because it is the purest when it feels fresh and brand new. A planet at birth, especially an individual planet at the entrance, is considered the first new soul to begin their journey of life. There is a lot to do here, and it can be very difficult to feel so fresh. But it requires a lot of awareness and insight.
15°
is in the middle of the first degree and the last degree, and 15 degrees represent the key issue of the constellation. If you were born at 15 degrees Capricorn, you have to deal with the problems and struggles that Capricorn has to deal with, even if this is your only Capricorn position.
This degree is also where you find the reason to live in a zodiac sign. If you are at 15 degrees of a fixed sign (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, or Aquarius ), this is called "Divine Messenger's Degree". The degree of God means you are the “first choice” person for friends, family and colleagues. You often use your rich luck and intelligence to make things happen.
Annoying degree — 29°
Annoying degree occurs at 29 degrees of the planet in the constellation, which is the last position of the constellation before the planet enters the next constellation. This is a degree of karma that is perfect, and people who possess this degree usually appear to be "old souls". This marks the end of a cycle, often considered a "degree of faith."You have done everything you can, and your soul just needs to wait for the next season to come.
However, while this feels like a certain degree of "giving up", it is actually the degree of mastery. If the degree of disgust is in your birth chart, it means you have all the tools you need to overcome all the challenges of the sign, and there will be many.
You have the talent for understanding and self-reflection and can use these to achieve your highest goals. This can be hard to deal with because you know you have a higher goal, but when you are ready to start your next chapter, you can grow into a character that truly belongs to you.
