Astrology - The Forgotten Science

I thought I understood psychology.

Then I began to study astrology, and realized I knew nothing.

In this brief letter, I’m going to explain the ancient science of astrology, how some of the most innovative thinkers have used it over the centuries, and how you can better understand yourself and your soul’s destiny by knowing and studying your astrology chart.

Before you had a name, personality, or role in society, you were a fractal of the universe born under a unique arrangement of stars.

The key to understanding yourself and your life path isn’t found in a personality assessment or a psychology textbook.

It's found in astrology.

Here’s how to work with astrology to find out who you really are:

Astrology is the most ancient branch of science.

For thousands of years, in ancient Babylon, Egypt, Greece, India, and China, astrology and astronomy were the same field.

It is only as of the scientific revolution in the 1600s that astronomy split from astrology.

Since then, astrology has been dubbed “pseudoscience” by mainstream academia, but they are misled.

We know from Newton’s Law of Gravity that everything has a gravitational pull on everything else in the universe. A pebble has a gravitational pull to Pluto, and vice versa.

We also know from Hermetic Philosophy that “The All is Mind,” or that everything in the universe is interconnected.

From here, it’s clear to see how you, an aspect of the universe, are physically and metaphysically connected to the entire cosmos.

Your personal astrology offers us an explanation as to how.

Your birth chart is the blueprint of your soul’s potential.

It’s a map that reveals your gifts, lessons, and highest timeline.

Some key aspects to know about your chart are:

• Sun = Your inherent nature

• Rising = Your outward presentation or personality

• Moon = Your subconscious and emotional world

• Saturn = Your karmic lessons and path to maturity

• Midheaven = Your public persona, career, and legacy

• Part of Fortune = Your path to abundance and wealth

• North Node = Where you are karmically evolving to in this lifetime

Each planet has a unique energetic impact on you.

There are also houses, degrees, and aspects to consider.

By understanding the various aspects of your chart, you begin to understand the various dimensions of yourself and can align your life with your soul’s blueprint.

To go deeper:

• Look up your birth chart on a free website

• Go through each positioning (your sun, moon, rising, and other planets), and ask AI questions to learn what each position means

Many of the greatest thinkers in history also studied astrology deeply.

Ben Franklin, Carl Jung, JP Morgan, the 3 Wise Men, and Isaac Newton were all astrologers.

Here are few quotes from Jung on astrology:

“Astrology is a way of looking at the universe and realizing that we are all connected to it.”

“Psychology will be a dinosaur science until it includes astrology.”

And Jesus Christ even said in Luke 22:10:

"As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters."

According to esoteric and mystical Christianity, he is alluding to the coming "Age of Aquarius" (the astrological age we are in now), often symbolized by a man carrying water.

The Age of Aquarius is an age of spiritual awakening, higher knowledge, and humanitarianism.

In this era, it is of the utmost importance to know what is happening in your individual chart as well as in the broader flow of the cosmos.

Astrology is your map for navigating this age of awakening.

In a daily context, those who live in the greatest alignment are most aligned with their birth chart, aka their inherent, authentic frequency.

By understanding your chart and its very aspects, you can understand yourself at a deeper level than psychology or philosophy can offer, and better navigate the path to carrying out your soul’s destiny.
