Astrology and Horoscopes - Read or Fake ?

Astrology has always had a bad name with many scientists. Just this year astrology has been being brought into focus as a pseudo science again. Many people believe it to be a crank belief and this is normally by people who have little knowledge or understanding of it. Also they are people who are not open or willing to believe in something with little scientific proof. They may ready their daily stars in the news paper and laugh and criticise them. The zodiac signs you read are only a very basic guide, an astrologer needs to know the time date and place of birth to give a proper natal interpretation of a horoscope which provides an absolute wealth of information.

I doubt if astrology will never be classed as a true science no more than true existence can be truly proved. However science has proved that the moon has an effect on tides and human behaviour. A
old Lieber wrote a book in 1978 called The Lunar Effect: Biological Tides and Human Emotions. He argued that the moon influences day-to-day behaviour. Those in the medical profession also agree as hospitals and the police know that more violence is committed on a Full Moon, and increase its workforce to accommodate this. There are many other instances which seem to be linked to the planets. When mercury is in retrograde (moving around a particular part of the zodiac) it is said that it affects all things to do with communications and travel. The last belt of bad weather which hit the UK at the end of 2010 was at a time when mercury was in retrograde; this was also a time when many internet service providers and other communication devices had problems. Coincidence?

Recently Percy Seymour who is a scientist wrote a book called 'The Scientific Proof of Astrology'. The argument he put forward was that the movement of the Sun, moon and sundry planets from Jupiter to Mars interfere with the Earth's magnetic field. In doing so, the unbo
offspring of pregnant mothers around the world are exposed to different magnetic fields when they are born.

Today, most Western astrologers tend to focus on general developments and trends, rather than forecasting actual events. They may use their skills to help and advise a person by giving an insight into a particular situation, the individual/s involved and the general direction in which the situation is heading. Personal birth charts give an insight into a person's likely character traits and best possible matches both in career choice and relationships.

Although it has never been scientifically proven, it has been used and valued as an effective tool for guidance throughout many cultures and among millions of individuals for many thousands of years. Changes and new developments may well have occurred over time, as is the case with all things, but it is still as useful and reliable a source of information and insight as it was a thousand years ago.
