Generally, people ask that why Astrology still exists? Many
of us wondered that It's an ancient technique and still in practice. Why many
of us take this science seriously. In my opinion, anyone who is able to study
astrological systems should find if they are able to view it with scientific
objectivity, is that confirmation bias, like the palliative effects or can go both
ways.
It is easy to be misled by the vague generalizations of
astrological interpretation. But this does not mean that there is nothing at
all of value there. On the other way opposing, divination technique such as
Astrology, Tarot, Numerology are among the most perceptive intuitive methods
which tells about you, your past and future. We believe in this statement,
“Astrology represents the sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity”.
After reading hundreds of horoscopes while understanding
their Natives, I can say with confidence that anyone who thinks that astrology
is nothing but scientific illiteracy and a scam, does not really know very much
about it. I agree that there is a tremendous amount of illiteracy and fraud out
there, especially in the psychic-horoscope market. But misuse of popular
resources has often been seen where there is no argument against it.
Studying at the Horoscopes of a family, the number of
improbable coincidences and meta-coincidences among the Natal-Charts of the
family members have never failed to blow me away. Every horoscope tells a story
where every family is like a kind of geometric ensemble of stories and themes.
Astrology (occult science) still exists because neither
Science nor Religion offers a widespread philosophy of identity and History
which respects the particular qualities that actually matter in such
reflections. It provides a language to talk about esoteric themes within personal
and social experience, as well as a compelling framework with which to study
historical events.
The blunder that people make is to adopt that the purpose of
astrology is prediction. While astrology can indeed be of some prognostic
value, it would be a mistake, in my view, to try to use it that way
intentionally. Astrology doesn't predict events; it maps the coincidence of
psychological themes to the coincidence of planetary configurations.
Applying those coincidences can invite delusional projection
of patterns, but when studied it with maturity, they can also be used to cut
through mental clutter and pick up on deeper, more intuitive sensitivity to the
flow of our personal lives.
