Astrology

The Astronomy is the scientific study of objects and matter outside the earth’s atmosphere and of their physical and chemical properties, is accepted as a science and is a widely studied academic discipline.

Astrology, on the other hand, deals with the apparent positions of the planets and constellations at the precise moment of someone’s birth, and claims that these relates systematically to their character, personality traits, relationships with others, profession and auspicious times of their life.

General astrology studies the relationship of the significant celestial moments (e.g., the times of vernal equinoxes, eclipses, or planetary conjunctions) to social groups, nations, or all of humanity. It answers, by astrological means, questions formerly posed in Mesopotamia to the bāru.
