Introduction to Financial Astrology : a basic guide to getting ahead and making better investments

Lets clear up one thing quickly - astrology doesn't do anything. Never has and never will. Astrology doesn't make us do anything and is not responsible for any of our actions. But its been noted that astrologers are able to look at certain planetary alignments and draw conclusions. This is beneficial if someone chooses to note the signs and take advantage of them.

So lets start at the beginning : the Maya, the Greeks, the Egyptians, the Romans, the Chinese and nearly all other ancient civilizations were aware of the orbit of the earth around the Sun and the Moon around the earth. We have identified record-keeping going back at least 5000 years and it's clear that planetary movement played a social role in time-keeping, festivals, harvests and agricultural events. 

History of Astrology

Ancient scientists placed great emphasis in the relationship between positions of the planets and medical conditions to a point that Hippocrates himself was a believer. Aristotle proposed that planetary movements were guided by divine influences.

The relationship between astronomy, medicine and forecasting was such a fundamental idea in medieval and middle ages Europe that universities such as Paris and Florence had chairs of astrology ("astrology" - information about human affairs and terrestrial events by studying the movements and relative positions of celestial objects). Europe up to the 17'th century saw a world in which everything - people, the world, the universe - was understood to be interconnected. Astrology co-existed happily with religion, magic and science.

The Reformation changed Europe in a way that nothing else in history had before. Historians usually date the start of the Protestant Reformation to around 1517. It was a call to purify the church and a belief that the Bible, not tradition - should be the sole source of spiritual authority.

Protestantism emerged as the first truly viable challenger to the Catholic church's hold on the population. In strictly modern terms, the Catholic and Protestant churches were competing firms in the business of supplying Salvation. As competition for religious market share heated up, churches began focusing on salvation from devilry. Among both Catholics and Protestants, witch-hunting became a prime service for attracting and appeasing the masses by demonstrating their Satan-fighting prowess.

In the Catholic Catechism 2116, we read "All forms of divination are to be rejected: recourse to Satan or demons, conjuring up the dead or other practices falsely supposed to 'unveil' the future. Consulting horoscopes, astrology, palm reading, interpretation of omens and lots, the phenomena of clairvoyance, and recourse to mediums all conceal a desire for power over time, history, and, in the last analysis, other human beings, as well as a wish to conciliate hidden powers. They contradict the honor, respect, and loving fear that we owe to God alone". Witches became a target. Astrology became a target. Natural healers became a target. Up to 80,000 people were put to death, most of them women.
