Planetary Function in Astrology - Are Yours Healthy or Dysfunctional?

by Robert Wilkinson

Each planet has two modes of function: healthy and unhealthy. How our planets are functioning determines how our lives are working for better or worse. Today we examine how to turn dysfunction into healthy functioning.

6 years ago I gave you an article that explored these concepts. Since I haven’t reprinted it since then, I thought this would be a perfect time to take a new look at how our planets work.

Our planets each represent an important part of our inner makeup that determines the external events in our lives. When operating in a dysfunctional way, they bring maladjusted conditions, difficult interactions, and a host of problems. When operating in a healthy manner, they bring forth the best of external events and conditions, or at the least help us navigate difficulty in ways that are perfect for us.

We may not be able to control many life circumstances, but we can always control how we respond to those conditions and circumstances. This article can help you understand how to choose a more healthy set of responses to all outer life conditions.

For your renewed consideration, an article you really don’t want to miss!

Hi Robert: Thanks so much for redirecting us to the article. It is an excellent explanation how both sides of the coin serve us. I knew these things you wrote about on an intuitive level, yet had not the wisdom to articulate and connect the value of all choices. This also helps me to honor those who choose diferently - well - as best I can anyway. I won't lie; I have little patience for fools or bullies. Thanks again. Happy Spring!
Happy Birthday to me on Friday. Should be a most interesting solar return with it occurring just hours past the six pointed star, Pluto within a degree of squaring natal sun, Uranus conjunct natal Mercury, Mercury Rx, Neptune squaring natal Moon&Saturn, Venus conjunct natal Venus. Hope I can remember to let go of what's not serving me!
