Why Astrology is Nonsense
Astrology has been widely studied and practiced since at least antiquity, by every culture and in every corner of the world, yet, “We should stick to psychology”?
Astrology has been and still is rigorously tested in different ways involving the scientific method, resulting in high rates of accuracy, but, “We should ignore that, because psychology”?
Astrology, when practiced correctly and ethically, harmonically transforms the lives of at least hundreds of thousands of logical, fully functioning people all over the world, yet, “It’s dangerous. Just see a shrink”?
People (even well educated, practicing scientists) admire and even revere such polymaths and other famous historical figures who practiced Astrology, such as Plato, Ptolemy, Galileo, Chaucer, Kepler, Cassini, Nostradamus, Archimedes, Aristotle, Paracelsus, and too many more to name here without writing a book, yet, “Astrology is stupid”?
If this is you, do you know what you sound like? - “My ego is equal to the mass of Jupiter and all of its satellites, because I’ve only read basic newspaper horoscopes which are based on sun sign. Though I’ve never learned a method of constructing an astronomical chart in relation to a time and / or place on earth, and though I’ve never learned anything about the history of Astrology and how it works, I’m convinced that it’s outdated superstition.”
