| Why should you follow astrology? How can people | | | | The art of astrology is a bit scientific observation and |
| believe that the planet Neptune is affecting our choices | | | | a bit psychic premonition. Of all the events that could |
| and actions here on earth? If it's been studied forever, | | | | be predicted, which one will hold true for the most |
| then why can't they prove it? What benefit is there in | | | | people?I think of each planet as a different clock in the |
| knowing about horoscopes and where the planets are | | | | heavens. Each one has its own pace and it's own |
| at any given time? How does it work? Why does it | | | | season. Each one keeps time with a different season |
| even matter?I could answer your questions with | | | | of the universe. Just like the sun and moon each have |
| vague concepts that don't mean anything to anyone, | | | | completely different seasons and completely different |
| and say something like "The electroplasmodic waves | | | | effects at different times. Watching the sun's seasonal |
| of the individual planets travel through the quantum | | | | effects helps the farmer know when to plant his |
| solar field to combine with the neurotelepsychic | | | | crops. Watching the moon's cycles helps us in other |
| particles within our individual aura fields, thus causing | | | | areas. Astrology is taking all of the other planets' |
| psychoelectron pulses to begin effecting the synapses | | | | seasons and cycles into account too. Imagine a giant |
| within our brains." But answers like that don't really | | | | cosmic clock with the moon as the seconds hand and |
| mean anything to most of us and besides I made that | | | | the sun as the hours hand. Mercury would be the |
| up!The truth is that science has barely figured out how | | | | minute hand. Add to that a hand for Venus, Mars, and |
| the moon affects us. We know that it moves the tides | | | | the others. Each one a bit faster or slower then the |
| through it's gravitational pull. We know that women's | | | | others. Now telling time becomes a lot more complex. |
| menstrual cycles are often in alignment with the moon. | | | | Time becomes bigger and more infinite.To take it one |
| We know that the apparent waxing and waning of the | | | | step further, as each of us is born we are handed our |
| moon is really just shadows being cast upon it's | | | | own personal clock that is the time by which we will |
| surface. It isn't really disappearing and reappearing. We | | | | live our lives. To the untrained eye it looks like my clock |
| know that more babies are born on full moons then | | | | is hung upside down with the 6 at the top and the 12 |
| any other time in the lunar cycle. We know that lunacy | | | | at the bottom. Another person's clock is to be hung |
| is the weirdness that sometimes effects people during | | | | with the 2 on top and the 8 on the bottom. So to be |
| the nights of the full moon. But why? Why should the | | | | able to predict someone's future using astrology, you |
| size of a shadow effect such things? Isn't the moon | | | | have to know which angle they hang their clock and |
| the same size and therefore have the same amount | | | | you have to compare them to all others who hang |
| of magnetic gravitational pull no matter how much | | | | their clock that way. Sure enough there's another |
| shadow covers it's face?Modern science knows a little | | | | pattern. This time it's a predictable pattern of |
| bit about our relationship with the moon mostly through | | | | personality types, styles, and preferences. So as an |
| observation. When the astronauts walked around on | | | | astrologer you have to be able to know the typical |
| the moon, they didn't find some magical reason for all | | | | person of that clock position and then read their |
| of these lunar influences.There was a time in ancient | | | | multi-handed clock. Then with your very best psychic |
| history when mankind thought the moon was a | | | | abilities and intuition, tell them what you believe will |
| grandmother goddess that decided when women | | | | happen.Why does it work? Because it's all patterns |
| would be pregnant and when they would menstruate | | | | and cycles and its predictable and it happens the same |
| instead. If you asked them why they believed it or how | | | | way over and over. Maybe the planets were put in |
| did the moon regulate pregnancies and menstrual | | | | the positions they were put in just for the sole purpose |
| flows, you would have been told to observe it for | | | | of keeping time. Maybe they each have their own |
| yourself. It's no different then the seasons and their | | | | weird electrical gravitational pull. Maybe the human |
| continual cycle of birth and death. To argue the point | | | | brain has some sort of odd multi-handed clock |
| would have been ridiculous. Of course Grandmother | | | | programmed into it, each one as different as a set of |
| Moon is in charge of such things, look for yourself, | | | | fingerprints? Maybe some cosmic creator decided that |
| silly!Mankind hasn't really gotten too much further along | | | | this would be their universal filing system to help them |
| in his understand of such things. We put our focus and | | | | remember who's doing what and where. Honestly, we |
| energy into studying other things, like medicine, | | | | don't know why it works. We just know that it is |
| weapons, and commerce. There's so many amazing | | | | patterns and wheels that can be predicted like the |
| mysteries to explore while we're on this planet, it's not | | | | weather changes each season.Why should you bother |
| really surprising to me that we still don't know very | | | | to follow astrology? For the same reasons that we |
| much about the magical workings of anything. We | | | | follow the weatherman's report. We want to be |
| observe a lot and take notes to compare future | | | | forewarned of the possibility of storms and conflicts |
| events to past events in hopes of finding patterns and | | | | so we can protect ourselves accordingly. We want to |
| cycles that will somehow explain things or at least let | | | | be forewarned of sunny weather and positive aspects |
| us predict what's next. This is most apparent in our | | | | so that we can take advantage of the blessings about |
| scientific study of weather, earthquakes, and | | | | to be given to us. If I know that there's a good chance |
| volcanoes. The same holds true for | | | | it's going to rain, then I dress appropriately. If I know |
| astrology.Astrologers have observed the planets | | | | that there's a good chance that prosperity and |
| movements and documented what effect those | | | | abundance are coming my way, then I want to be well |
| movements seem to have on humanity. They have | | | | positioned and ready to receive my fair share.No |
| discovered patterns. Why do those patterns exist? | | | | weatherman is 100% correct and the same holds true |
| We don't honestly know. They have also found that | | | | for astrologers. Some are better at reading the signs |
| as the planets line up in mathematical angles to one | | | | then others. Some have more tools available for |
| another, that too seems to consistently create certain | | | | reading the skies then others. Both add valuable insight |
| predictable cause and effect scenarios. For someone | | | | to the possibilities of how your day could unfold. It's |
| to use the planets to predict the future is a lot like | | | | always good to be prepared. You don't plan an |
| saying, that when the next full moon comes quite a | | | | outdoor wedding ceremony without looking at the |
| few women will start menstruating. Why? Don't know, | | | | typical weather forecasts for that area. You don't plan |
| but it's true. Will every single woman who isn't pregnant | | | | an international vacation without looking at the political |
| start to menstruate? Of course not. Will every single | | | | forecasts for that area. Think of astrology forecasts |
| pregnant woman deliver their baby on that moon? Of | | | | as one of many tools you have at your disposal for |
| course not. But it's a reasonably accurate prediction to | | | | timing and plotting the course of your goals and |
| say that more women then usual will deliver babies | | | | dreams. |
| and more women then usual will start menstruating. | | | | |
