Esoteric astrology concerned with the spiritual life and interprets the horoscope from the viewpoint of the soul, while much of popular astrology today often is preoccupied with outer events, such as if you are to get married or if you will win some money.
An esoteric astrologer looks for the purpose of the soul, and the inner causes behind what happens in your life. If you are interested in understanding more about your true self, the purpose of life and your spiritual path, esoteric astrology may be a great help for you.
Esoteric astrology helps you to understand your talents and limitations,
so that you can make use of and increase your good sides and eliminate or limit the bad habits.
Every sign has a higher and a lower aspect. The higher aspect is the view of the soul,
while the lower aspect is the product of the personality.
Esoteric Astrology looks at life from the viewpoint of the soul. It is in the soul you will find your highest aspirations and dreams, and also the purpose of life. When you look at the horoscope, remember that all signs, all planets and all houses are good by nature. Every part of the horoscope contains good qualities. You should strive to embody these qualities; they are the virtues you should aim for in life.
Look at the beautiful qualities of the signs, planets and houses and aim towards them.
This is what you should aspire towards. These are the soul-qualities.
Let us take an example. The sign of Taurus contains several spiritual qualities.
One of them is inner peace: the capacity to remain calm, and to experience a state of
safety and security no matter what occurs in your surrounding. If you possess an inner
peace you will react in a rational manner even in the most difficult situations, and
never give in to destructive emotions such as panic or fear.
In esoteric astrology the horoscope is based on the Ascendant that shows the purpose of the soul, and the Sun-sign where you will find the personality. The Ascendant points out the way to the future and the spiritual realm, while the Sun shows what you have learned and accomplished up to now.
To this can be added the Moon, this planet tells you about the past, old karma and old habits that you have to get rid of if you want to progress forwards on your journey.
An esoteric interpretation is also based on a deeper level than outer events. Let us make an example.
Maybe someone comes to an astrologer and wants to know if she will meet a man in the near future. But if her previous relation did not work out so well, will she make the same mistakes in her next relation?
If she meets a new man and repeats the old pattern, is it not better that she asks herself what it is within herself that needs to be altered? The problem for this woman is not to find a new man, but to understand more about how to create a good relationship. It was obviously something that did not work in her last relationship, and why was it so? What was her own part of the problem? If you by studying her horoscope can help her to understand more about how she reacts in intimate relationships, this will be a true help for her.
