Astrology Tools – Learn Astrology

It seems odd but it is appropriate to compare astrology with calendars and clocks. Reading calendars and clocks is something we were all taught to do at a young age. But have you ever given thought to what doing each really involves?

We take our ability to use this extremely complex information for granted. We underestimate – or forget – how complicated both calendars and clocks are.

Criticism of astrology birth chart readings

You are probably as aware of criticism astrology receives as I am. But, interestingly, those who are quick to condemn it as a load of hocus pocus hogwash often forget one very important thing: we all make dozens of predictions every day, and many of these are done with calendars and clocks in mind. For example, we might say ‘next Tuesday, I will finish work at 5:00, will be going out with some friends and arrive home after midnight’.

Astrology birth chart predictions

In doing so, we are making a prediction based entirely on facts available. The solar system is another way of telling the time, albeit a more complicated method than reading the positioning of hands on a clock. By reading what has happened, establishing as best we can why it happened and making some logical calculations about what is likely to happen again and when, astrologers can make predictions.

Astrology birth chart reading is a science

There is nothing mystical about astrology. Magical yes, but not mystical. As stated elsewhere in this website, astrology is not an art; it is a science. It is the science of relationships and the science of life. Practicing of life is the art! Learning about tools astrologers use will help you discover more about yourself, give you a better understanding of what’s involved with making astrological predictions and how we are ultimately able to recognize and seize opportunities when they are available.
