• [05:58 ] Part 1: A Brief History
• [10:57 ] Part 2: 12 Signs of the Zodiac

Key Takeaways:

• The planets signify themes and circumstances in our lives, while the zodiac signifies how they are expressed.
• In the tropical zodiac, the signs are defined by season, mode, and element. This further explains the expression of each sign.
• Planets in certain signs in the planetary rulership scheme have special considerations for their topics and expression.
