course and article to deepen your knowledge of astrology

Astrology is a set of beliefs and practices that do not enter the realm of the rational based on the symbolic interpretation of the supposed correspondences between the celestial configurations (the position and the movement of the planets of the solar system and those of the visible stars constellations of the ecliptic) and human affairs, collective or individual. This conjectured parallelism makes that astrology, besides the analysis of the existent, is often used as a divinatory tool.

This article is devoted to Western astrology, to which the term astrology generally refers. It is the one that started from Sumer, influenced Egypt, dominated Babylon, and democratized in Greece, from where it came to us thanks to the mediation of the Arabs. If, according to Wilhelm Knappich, the most ancient form in which astrology has been practiced is world astrology, the journal horoscopes or the affinities of the zodiac signs are its current popular versions in the age of modern individualism. . If the latter are generally considered distant and distorted echoes of historical astrology, they remain the manifestation and the most widespread expression.
