How Our System Works
The most important thing to understand is that every person, place, and thing is subject to time and space. Each one has a beginning, like a birthday, which gives it zodiac signs, and an end to its existence as we know it. Our Sun, Moon, and Rising signs act like unique labels, like the names we use to tell one person, place, or thing apart from another.
Because of the planetary influences we are ceaselessly bombarded with, we are urged to perform certain acts, move in certain directions, and say certain things at certain times. This urge does not compel humankind, as we are endowed with free will and the power of discernment. Put another way, we can choose what we want and don’t want to a great degree. However, most other lifeforms, both animate and inanimate, exist and operate by instinct, divine command, and human command. Some of this gives us the ability to observe planetary influences through seasons and what they bring, mating and spawning in lifeforms, and more.
When you see the celestial bodies used in astrological determinations (i.e., the Sun, Moon, and Planets) as precise hands on the cosmic clock in relation to people, places, and things, you begin to understand universal time and how it affects us and our environment.
Because it is all relative to time, the Astro Life Alliance system of astrology teaches you to see these energies and their effects on you and others in real time. You can use any clock or watch, or the Horary Time Indicator app as a screensaver on your phone for quick access to planetary time and planetary positions.
