It predicts the future, understands personality traits, and decides important events such as marriage and business deals. International Astrology Day recognises the importance of astrology and its role in our lives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Renowned astronomers associate astrological events with significant historical occurrences, such as eclipses and planetary alignments. Wars and the rise and fall of empires are but just a few. Many cultures also use <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/instaastro.com\/astrology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>astrology<\/strong><\/a><\/span> to determine the best time for important events such as planting crops or conducting religious ceremonies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Astrology includes a lot of things that influence our lives in uncountable meaningful ways.

In this, a particular event&#8217;s planet&#8217;s subsolar point traverses or passes through the Equator. The Spring Equinox, in particular, associates with new growth, rebirth, and starting fresh. It is a time when the energy shifts from winter&#8217;s inward reflection to spring&#8217;s outward expression. Many renowned astrologers also believe equinoxes are potent for setting intentions and manifesting desires. It is a time to tune into the energy of the cosmos and align oneself with the Earth&#8217;s natural cycles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Therefore, International Astrology Day falls between the 19th to March 22nd each year, the day of the March Equinox. The March Equinox marks the first day of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and the first day of autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. This year, International Astrology Day is right around the corner on 21st March 2023.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-50307\" src=\"https:\/\/cfblog.instaastro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124325\/Astrology-and-equinoxes-300x254.jpg\" alt=\"Equinoxes\" width=\"615\" height=\"521\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cfblog.instaastro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124325\/Astrology-and-equinoxes-300x254.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cfblog.instaastro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124325\/Astrology-and-equinoxes-150x127.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cfblog.instaastro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/20124325\/Astrology-and-equinoxes.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"><b>History of astrology: A brief insight<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">So now that we have gotten an insight into the astrology meaning, many questions might pop up.

It emerges from the sidereal zodiac, which considers the position of fixed stars in the sky and uses a system of houses and planetary periods known as Dashas. Vedic astrology is a sacred science in India and is for making important life decisions, such as marriage, business, and travel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">On the other hand, Western astrology emerges from ancient Babylonian astrology.
