Faith in Astrology and Horoscopes
If you’ve visited my website, you probably have faith in astrology, and you’re not alone. In 2012, 34% of the U.S. population believed astrology had a scientific basis. In 2022, 27% believed that the movements of planets truly affect life.
However, choosing a form of astrology based on scientific principles is not easy amid the chaos of the current market. One reason is that astrology today is often simplified into generic horoscope predictions for the 12 zodiac signs.
By 2023, the world population has reached 8 billion. So, how can you divide 8 billion people into 12 groups, each with over 666 million people, and accurately predict for all? It’s impossible.
That’s why a 2010 survey showed that 76% of respondents believed astrology had a scientific basis, but only 43% believed horoscope predictions were based on science.
When Astrology Truly Becomes a Scientific Discipline
When astrology is studied and practiced from a scientific perspective, it becomes much more intricate and sophisticated than casual horoscope predictions. Here are two astrology charts as examples.
The first chart is a basic one using only 10 fundamental planets, and it looks quite simple, doesn’t it?
However, the second chart is the same astrology chart but includes additional important planets, making it much more complex. But then, it may not be as user-friendly for the general public.
Therefore, if you truly want to delve into astrology or seek advice from it, be cautious before putting your trust in the chaotic and often confusing market of astrology, where genuine and misleading information can easily get mixed up.
