144 Realities

With 12 planets and 12 signs, there are 144(12x12) possible planetary positions, each of which summarizes a part of our universal reality, both good and bad. There are 72 GOOD positions which summarize our strengths and virtues, and 72 BAD positions which summarize our weaknesses and vices. This is based on rulership or dignity. Basically planets are inclined to be good in their own sign, element, or gender, and inclined to be bad when not in any of those categories.

Note: Do not take offence if your Sun or any other planet falls in a "bad" sign. This does not necessarily mean you are a bad person. Our planetary placements are like the clothes we wear -they do not necessarily reveal the true condition of the soul -which is beyond astrology's ability to measure. Some souls have chosen difficult charts as challenges while others have earned them through their misdeeds in past lives, and the quality of your life now can earn you an excellent chart in the future.
