I want to get back to astrology as a religion, not because I believe it in particular, but because it fascinates me what people take to be religous and non religous. Personally I haven't seen many compelling reasons to believe in astrology, but I haven't looked into it very hard. What I do think astrology is good for, and works very well, is to get people to talk about them selves. Got to love astrology for that.
But here's my thought. As I woke up this morning I watched the morning light fill up my room thought it was neat that even though the sun wasn't shining directly into my room it was still well lit in here, and I thought what bouncy stuff light must be made of to have bounced through the clouds, the trees, the leaves and into my room. Which led me to the thought that the light I was seeing was reflecting all the colors of all the things it had touched on its way to my room. Can't astrology be like that, on our way to being born we are somehow affected by the stars and planets?
I'm not writing this because I believe it, I'm just having fun with the idea.

We all see the same Sun.

Well I guess I would say why just the stars and the planets? If the light is reflecting all the colors of everything it touched, then wouldn't whatever there is about us that could be affected by things before birth be affected by as many things as the light is? I guess this would require a belief in a spirit that was coming from somewhere other than earth. It is a lovely idea, for me not one I could believe. I think your metaphor (probably the wrong word) would be more aptly applied to the events and circumstances of our actual lives after birth. And I like your metaphor for that use very much actually. But I should not steal it from you that way.Ann wrote:I want to get back to astrology as a religion, not because I believe it in particular, but because it fascinates me what people take to be religous and non religous.
