Astrologers and horoscopes are ridiculed by many people nowadays. This is mainly because the interpretation of the stars is understood in its outdated, original sense and is not seen as applied to the modern environment. How do astrology and horoscopes get along with enlightened people?

 

Astrology comprises the fateful interpretation of the stars and planets and the knowledge of star constellations (astronomy). In earlier times, people lived in harmony with planetary deities, from which a science of atrology developed in most advanced cultures.

 

After Copernicus revolutionised the world view in the 16th century, astrology was largely regarded as superstition rather than science. Nevertheless, astrological wisdom remains to this day, but nowadays astrology is more related to psychology.

People no longer believe in the direct influence of the planets on the human being and thus a fateful course, but see a symbolic effect in the planets and star constellations. Modern astrology no longer says anything about inevitable predictions of fate, but indicates tendencies and possibilities within which the individual human being leads his life by his own will.

The nature of the human being is interpreted by the signs of the zodiac in which the sun, moon and ascendant were located at the time of birth. These indicate characteristics such as temperament, emotional state, abilities, talents, vitality as well as the possibility of one's own development.

 

A good astrologer is also a psychologist. Thus, based on the overall picture and the interplay of stars, planets and the person's mental constitution, he can make an extensive statistical calculation. A comprehensive horoscope taking into account the minute of birth indicates the main direction of the person's life and enables the individual to develop or expand his or her individual aptitudes.

Today, astrology is mainly used for partnerships, raising children and professional careers.
