There's a difference between simple horoscopes which are only based on the Sun, and astrology in its entirety, which is based on the date, place and exact time of birth: you have a minimum of 7 planets, 12 signs and 12 houses, and the geometric relationships between them. It's not something you can learn in a day. In fact, there is so much to it that I probably won't know it all in this lifetime! LOL

A good book for beginners is called "The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need." You'll just have to ignore the section about Cusps: there is no such thing as a "cuspal blend." The Sun (or any other planet) is always in one sign or another, and cannot be a blend of two signs.

Once you understand the basics of reading charts, then you can begin to explore transits. Astrologers will differ on the hows and whys of astrology. I can only speak for myself. The stars do not make anything happen to you, they're only reflecting what is already happening via synchronicity. A good analogy is that a clock striking noon doesn't make you eat lunch, but it does make it a lot more likely than lunch will be had. I do not believe that astrology can predict specific events, only archetypal themes that will be in play. A particular aspect can play out in an infinite number of ways, but it can not "just mean anything," it will stick to the archetypal themes of the planets, signs, houses and aspects involved. By looking at the transits you can tell what kinds of themes will be in play at a given time.
