Astrology is like a lover - you need to have A LOT of patience when you meet her, and above all - it requires you to use your right hemisphere, as you need to synthesize the whole picture. Each and every one of us is a whole, which we can analyse from various angles.
I admit, only when I learned the basics did I understand more from what Maxine wrote there - these pieces of information are really invaluable. My advice to you is the following - apart from cramming by heart the qualities of the planets and zodiac signs - read and later on study the websites below. Organise your studying, for the planets' features are reflected in the zodiac signs, and the features of the signs are reflected in the houses.
Do your natal chart on
www.astro.com and choose the 'Extended Chart Selection' or you can simply choose 'Chart drawing, Ascendant' to have a quick look at the planetary positions and the aspects you have natally.

(this one I find rather interesting, especially in terms of zodiac signs in houses:

My personal advice is - acquire an ordinary book on astrology so that it could serve you as a quick reference and a starting point. Above all, you will learn the basics. Do your own research on the topics that intrigue you and be persistent. Collect and synthesise the data so that you could see clearly the parts (planets in zodiac signs and houses with houses in the zodiac signs) of the greater whole.
The more you will learn and see, the more rewarding it will become

Hello all,
I generally try my best to figure things out on my own, from personal study from JoS. And I, for the most part, soak the information up like a sponge and move right along. But I started reading the section "Azazel's Guide to Astrology" and began to study as hard as I could. Shortly after I realized I had almost scratched my noggin raw trying to understand what a transit, house and angle were, how and when planets retrograde and intercept let alone what all this means lol. I am continuing to study as best I can and have learned some things, such as when void moons are and I am beginning to know what planets rule which chakras etc..
But I was just curious, seeing as how many of my siblings here are very well versed in this, if you might have any tips or suggestions you picked up along the way? Maybe I am thinking too hard or am just too dumb haha.
I really appreciate the help again I will continue on studying sorry for the rambling lol
