An Astrologer's reflections on the zeitgeist as reflected in the cyclic configurations around us

True Sun Sign
Every so often, someone trained in Astronomy who knows zippety doo dah about Astrology, but figures that's only a detail, comes up with this same tired approach to refute how Astrology is used. We astrologers are not so dim and ignorant that we don't know that the heavens have shifted, but the Astrology of the West [as contrasted with Vedic] doesn't rely on the actual position of the zodiac. It is figured based on the seasons. 0 degrees of Aries is the Vernal equinox. Astronomically, that's somewhere closer to 7 degrees of Pisces, but that doesn't make someone who is born on March 25th a Pisces. They are still an Aries. I will leave Astrophysics alone, and continue to have a respect for all the study and work that goes into learning that discipline. I wish they'd do the same for us.
