In astrology, the planets are said to have a variety of effects on our lives. For example, the planet Mercury is said to rule communication, so people with strong Mercury placements in their charts are often good at writing and speaking. The planet Venus is said to rule love and beauty, so people with strong Venus placements are often attracted to beautiful things and are good at relationships. The planet Mars is said to rule energy and aggression, so people with strong Mars placements are often full of energy and can be quite assertive.
Of course, these are just generalizations and everyone's chart is unique, so the effects of the planets will be different for each person. However, if you want to get a general idea of how the planets might affect you, it can be helpful to look at your chart and see where the planets are placed.
