There is so much more to understand in humanity. I believe people in the old days (Say up to 2000 years ago) had a better connection with the universe as we have right now. If you ask me it's not religion why we lost the connection, in fact religion is way more universal than we can comprehend. No the reason why we lost our conenction is the lust for power, the lust to conquer other civilizations. It was there before but really started around the times of the Roman Empire. I admire people who know their ways around Astrology as they usually have a good knowledge of peopple.
Cheers and Steem on mate!
Absolutely. There are good people in that field, which is based on a long history of observation. That said, putting people into boxes based upon when they are born is very restrictive and not yet been shown to have any scientific validity. It's even more restrictive for sea lions. :)
I'm not a firm believer of "Scientific Validity" as most science is sponsored by the ones looking for the results. My Grandmother used Tarotcads to read the future and she was 100% right everytime. However there was no proove she would be correct upfront.
Regarding the "putting in a box". You can't put the universe in a box.... People are the way they are. You simply can add certain types to certain boxes. Heck, I see myself as a unique individual but on any given day I can come across two or three guys wearing exact the same, having the same haircut and have the same attitude as me. It really is as it is.
Good points. Science only measures what it has tested and knows. But with something like astrology, even if there are guideposts based on something real and tangible, the practice also is open to an awful lot of opinion and guesswork. Some peoples' intuition is spot-on, though.
