In

astrology

, the

energetic affinity

between the twelve

signs

of the

zodiac

and the

planets

of the solar system

it is known as "

regency

".

Hence, when referring to a sign, what is often being talked about is a planet: they have a similar vibration.

But

what are the ruling planets of the signs

?

For example, the planet

Mars

, which takes the name of

Ares

who, in Greek mythology was the god of war, has an affinity with the sign of

Aries

.

To put it in other words: the ruler of a sign is the closest thing to a conductor.

He is the one who leads the energetic baton in each sign.

He is the boss.

If your ruler is Mercury, communication, intelligence and the way of expression will be present in a more preponderant way.

Knowing

what your ruling planet

is is one of the first steps in diving into self-knowledge through astrology.

So it is important to know

which are the ruling planets of each sign

.

The base, the natal chart

The

date

and

time of birth

are important when making a birth chart, which is something like a person's letter of introduction from an astrological point of view.

In this great framework in the shape of a mandala that is the

natal chart

, data such as the ascendant, the location of the moon, the sign and the ruling planet are also needed.

Diego Bennet, astrological and psychological consultant, explains: "In the past, the planets revealed the will of the gods and had direct influence on humans. With the contribution of Carl Jung (Swiss psychiatrist, psychologist and essayist), and his definition of the unconscious , the planets happened to be a

symbolic representation of the human psyche

. They suppose, at present, psychological functions ".

Knowing what your ruling planet is is one of the first steps in diving into self-knowledge.

The ruling planet of each sign

Each sign has a ruling planet and sometimes two.

And are next.

  • Sun.

    This star, which for astrology is a planet, is the ruler of the sign of

    Leo

    . In general, Leo is like the Sun: the center of the solar system. They are usually attention grabbing and very "ego-ego-ego." They are fearless, capable, proud, and full of skill. Those who inhabit the Leonine energy tend to perceive themselves as very cool beings, who radiate light to everything that surrounds them.

  • Moon.

    She is the ruler of the sign of

    Cancer

    .

    Origin, country and family link this planet with its sign.

    The Moon is the archetype of the mother and is related to protection and fertility.

    And, therefore, with care and nutrition.

    It also has to do with emotional security.

    For those who are Cancer, the moon bathes them with sensuality and intuition, with inspiration and dreams.

  • Mars.

    Considered the planet of war, it rules

    Aries

    and gives it a belligerent energy.

    Aries attacks: he is a fighter and goes after his own thing.

    They are spontaneous and passionate.

    Brave and forward, those who are Mars are always noted for their overflowing energy.

  • Venus.

    This planet –– which is linked to harmony and beauty–– rules

    Taurus

    and

    Libra

    .

    They are signs with similarities, but also with differences.

    Being an earth sign, the Venusian energy in Taurus is present through worldly pleasures, such as a good meal or a shower.

    Taurus is sweet, emotional, and calm.

    Libra, an air sign, manifests it through beauty and seduction.

    Libra is bold, personable, and balanced.

In a way, talking about a sign is talking about a planet in the solar system, the Sun or the Moon.

  • Mercury.

    The planet of communication rules

    Gemini

    and also

    Virgo

    . Considered the "roadrunner of the zodiac", Gemini is an air sign. They are smart and capable; They tend to express themselves in many ways, but ... only when they want to. With them, boredom does not exist: they like to investigate, try new things and have fun. Gemini is a restless child. In

    Virgo

    , which is an earth sign, the rulership of Mercury makes it meticulous: it is mental, analytical and has a labyrinth in its head: if it becomes obsessed with an idea and does not unlock it, it does not advance. It tends towards simplicity and practicality.

  • Jupiter.

    Before

    Neptune

    appeared

    , this planet was the ruler of two signs: Pisces and Sagittarius.

    Now it only rules

    Sagittarius

    , to which it prints an energy of fire.

    Considered the "eternal teenager" of the zodiac, Sagittarius goes through life as if it were a permanent party.

  • Saturn.

    It is the ruling planet of

    Capricorn

    .

    Saturn gives this earth sign an energy linked to responsibility and duty.

    Those who are born under the sign of Capricorn have a hard time getting them out of their structure.

    They are considered as "the computer of the zodiac": they are intelligent, capable and, especially, analytical, since they need to have the information of everything and everyone.

Each sign of the zodiac corresponds to a planet in the solar system.

  • Uranus.

    He is the ruler of

    Aquarius

    , an air sign whose leitmotif is breaking the rules.

    Aquarian energy ––which also has the influence of Saturn, which is a coregent planet–– has to do with everything disruptive, innovation and inventiveness.

    Aquarians are creative, fun, effervescent, and friendly.

  • Neptune.

    It is the ruling planet of the last sign of the zodiac:

    Pisces

    .

    Neptunian energy refers to the water and its depths.

    But, pay attention!

    It is not that those who are Pisces are calm as well water.

    It's actually a double sign: on the surface, they can be peaceful, quiet, and creative;

    but, below the surface, they hide other energy willing to come out if they are disturbed.

  • Pluto.

    It governs

    Scorpio

    , a sign that is characterized by not having middle terms.

    In its great frontality and desire for control, many astrologers identify the energy of Pluto, considered, in ancient times, as the god of the deep.

    Scorpio is often called complicated and even vindictive.
