There’s no such thing as modern astrology, by the way. But if you want to think so, be my guest. I have to appologize, though, I’m feeling a little cranky. Overly cranky I mean. The stars have determined it.

When a halo surrounds the Moon and Jupiter stands within it, the king will be besieged. The halo was interupted; it does not point to evil. ... From Nabu-shuma-ishkun.

... one of many examples of Assyrian astrological pronouncements given in Pannekoek's A HISTORY OF ASTRONOMY. In these one can feel the throbbing pulse of the primitive past, when astrology had a soul.

Yes, there is such a thing as modern astrology - the work of Gauquelin, Jayne, the Ebertins and others. It has nothing to do with fate or determinism, though you insist on saying so. Your imitation of a broken record reveals the stagnant condition of your mind.
