Photo-Illustration: by The Cut; Photos: Getty Images/Getty Images Some years ago you were born somewhere on planet Earth. You took your first breath and became a person with a body of your own—no longer existing inside your parent, no longer existing only in the future, but a full and distinct being, with your own needs, your own hunger, your own heart pumping your own blood through you.
Astrology’s skeptics and detractors like to make a fuss about how foolish it is to imagine that, simply by looking to the stars, we can know what the future will bring. But to argue this is to completely misunderstand one of modern astrology’s central purposes—not to find our destinies, but to find our actually existing, living human selves.
Regardless of its current popularity, there is still a resounding lack of peer-reviewed evidence that astrology is “real.
After all, modern astrology has never really been about studying the planets or the sky. They aren’t our objects but our mirrors. The cosmic world reflects the human world, and the human world reflects the cosmos. Astrology encourages us to see ourselves not as isolated observers but as beings inextricably linked to the workings of the universe—as vast, as complicated, as beautiful and wild as the stars.
If you want to know, ultimately, why you are the way you are—why you’re like this and not like that—your sun sign alone won’t give you what you’re really looking for. Every one of the signs moves around you and through you. You interact with every one of the signs every day; every person you encounter is made of a complex mixture of astrological energies. The better you can learn to see each one, the wiser, more generous, more intuitive you’ll become.
