    I've been reading a lot from a bunch of random websites, but I don't really know if they're good sources.

    Could anyone direct me to any websites that they know are good?

    Jesus hates astrology. I want no part of this.

    Jesus also hates brunettes with candy canes, and commies, see you in hell.

    Find a lady in a wispy crimson dress with a pentagram necklace and purple hair that owns a magic shop and she will tell you all you need to know.

    Lots of love, face.

    I am going to go out on a limb and possibly risk offending a good friend and coming across as a mean, critical person. Bunny, what can the stars and planets possibly have to say about what is already inside of you, and secondly by what basis should they dictate how you should live your life?

    Cause it was never meant to be astrology, and theology. It is meant to be Astro-Theology. Hence why they hide zodiac symbols in alot of catholic churches.

    Oh my this will surely stir the pot...

    Look up writings by Micheal Tsarion.

    Take what's best and leave the rest.

    no need to worry. It's just curiosity and wanting to know more about the subject. By no means am i suggesting that it dictate my life. I would just like to know more about this area of study, because I do find it quite interesting. Obviously I know the 13th isn't a good hair day for me, I do believe there is some (even if it is VERY limited) truth to astrology. Maybe basic character traits, even if that is not true, it's still something interesting.

    it has nothing to do with catholocism; astrological symbols and codes are found around the world and in virtually all societies and major religions.

    there is evidence to support the idea that there was an unknown society of antiquity which discovered equinoctial precession and used it as a means of date keeping, and a great many ruins testify to this idea. a technologically and intellectually advanced culture or cultures with a system of learning and knowing akin to modern science (though surely differeing from it)

    this knowledge has been passed down over the millenia, broken, bastardized, and corrupted, but still remains intact enough to give us hints as to what the full body of knowledge may have entailed.

    the most likely possibility, as far as i'm concerned, is that human civilization is vastly older than we credit it with, and that a very highly advanced civilization did indeed exist in what is now prehistory -merely for loss of records-, and that it met its demise at the end of the last ice age.

    of course, in this specific theory, various disciplines are at odds with each other as to how possible it is. egyptologists flatly deny the possibility, but geology on the other hand supports it

    astrology is the result of millenia of corruption of this body of knowledge. the underlying theme in all of this, and all the mysterious ruins around the world, is the science of equinoctial precession.

    there's a million real things to learn about; choose one of them.


    do you really want to be one of those gibbering idiots who comes on here talking about how their life's all fucked up because of where uranus is?

    what's the fun in real things? And I'm not looking for that sort of extremity in this. Regardless, I'm not asking anyone to justify my curiousity, I'm asking for help.

    i would suggest reading "the fingerprints of the gods" by graham hancock. it is related to your inquiry, and extremely interesting, but probably not exactly what you are looking for.
