Hmmm good question, well I prefer to think of the stars as similar to clouds, rain, geographical location, and sunshine. They affect sorta us like the weather affects us. Someone born at midnight in a thunderstorm in New Jersey will have a vastly different experience than someone born at 10 a.m. in sunny Hawaii. In that way, it's also a little like a mirror.

I read it in a book somewhere, that the stairs don't rally control us do things, but its sorta a miror of whats happening down on earth basicly its like a projector making it eaiser for us to see what going on. Keep in mind your chart will change as you grow older, help me out Madame Bambi.
