Don't be mean to girls that believe in astrology/witchery/magic
Without these things women would have to cope with the fact that men are the most powerful agents/will in the known universe
That's simply intolerable to them
Just let them play pretend

Astrology is the theory that the climate conditions during very young life affects personality, this is backed up by modern developmental psychology.

How does it work.

Also for example, I was born on the 20th right before the sign switches. Does my personality click over if my mom took a few extra hours sqeezing me out? What about time zones?

Confirmation bias. If you ignore all the times you're wrong, it'll seem like you're always right.

astrology is more scientific and legitimate than astronomy is. astrology has disprovable theories and repeatable experiments. astronomy has "my theory isn't wrong, i'll just add dark matter and dark energy wherever its needed to prove my theory correct"

Not OP but the idea is that the position of the planets above and below you while you were born forms a sort of "map" of your life, meaning that when you came out of your mother, where the planets were positioned tells you your life path. Right before the sign switches gives you a high degree on your sun, implying it is likely the planet that holds your soul's purpose in life, and by observing it in relation to other aspects, you can determine the "karma" that is to be burned there.

Astrology is basically alchemy, eventually it may turn into a real science, but not any time soon and while women are in charge of it.

>>15650038
Pretty much this but also more complicated. I can't be bothered to look for the source right now but olympians and some athletes tend to be born in certain months because it gives them a size and power advantage in school, which in turn makes them more likely to pursue sports later on.
There's probably a lot of predictions you could do about someone from the month they were born, but you'd need men not women to take it seriously enough for it to make any progress.

This is relative to the start of the school year. Its got nothing to do with the absolute time of year you're born.

I like how you don't even know what astronomy is but feel qualified enough to say that it's made up.

yes, because its so untrue that you can LITERALLY LOOK UP IN THE SKY
my god, even a baseline understanding of the term astronomy is needed in your head
like, are you kidding me with this? You and
>>15650153 are just so demonstrably wrong, I mean
>astrology has disprovable theories and repeatable experiments
like what? what disprovable theories? What in astrology accurately describes the universe? What in astrology accurately describes compositions of planets, stars, distances between stellar objects? What in astrology accurately describes how the damn rock you're living on formed? Truth be told, that is geology, but come on
