Astrology - The Science
|
||||||||||
| Astrology is the twin science of astronomy. The two functioned in association for centuries in both observation and interpretation of celestial influences and how these affect all life on earth, but of human beings in particular. It was common that one who studied the heavens was both astronomer and astrologer. Although it was once considered logical to approach both the exploration of physical heavenly bodies in our skies through astronomy, as well as observing the affect they have upon man's psyche, through astrology, there has developed an unfortunate separation of the sciences. No longer is it generally accepted that they are complementary sciences, offering information that allows us to not only perceive the heavens, but to understand the influences of the planets and our human relationship to the whole. |

| There is a vigorous public interest in both our developing knowledge of our solar system and of space itself. There is also an increasing natural inclination to observe more about astrology beyond the basic fascination with one's personal astrological birth sign which has proven itself as a powerful aid to psychological analysis and self understanding. But astrology, although capable of indicating one's personal talents, failings and aspects of our personality, has much more to offer. To appreciate how much, we have to extend our reading beyond the regular notes in the local newspaper and respect it as a legitimate science now being used in ever widening spheres as we begin to understand its potential application. The science is based upon the fact that at any particular point in time, a chart may be drawn up which records and focuses upon all the different incoming influences and energies upon the earth and upon the particular life or individual person concerned. These invisible cosmic vibrations could be seen to correspond in a similar manner as different instruments in an orchestra, establishing a co-operative harmony or in the case of adverse conditions, clashing or turbulent energies, which the individual must learn to utilize or overcome. The influences from the planets and beyond, form complex patterns, we could refer to as cosmic weather conditions. All energies are powerful, whether visible or invisible. The sun's light is visible to us and its power we can feel, as we can to a lesser degree, the moon's energy. But that of the other planets, although it exists, may not be visible to us. In spite of this, since early history, people have been aware and even named the planets in our days of the week, recognized their different powers and worshiped them as gods. Regarding the influence of the other far galaxies and celestial energies in what we call the zodiac, we must rely upon what the science of Astrology gives us as a basis to understand how human beings react to them. To gain insight into Astrology, there is no better place to start our first observations, than with ourselves, at the moment of our birth. |

If seeking scientific visual evidence of the existence of the celestial patterns of energy it is recommended to research the work of Professor L. Kolisko including "Spirit in Matter" published by Kolisko Archive, Stroud, printed by John Jennings Ltd, Gloucester 1948. |
