Simply put, astrology is the study of the correlation between celestial movements and earthly events. The moon was here, the sun was there, then this happened. It is highly debated whether or not the celestial bodies influence us or serve as a mere code. It is the belief of us here at Cosmical Collective, that it is simply code to be translated.
We do not believe Saturn ruined your life. (Whew, thank goodness!) Astrology is one of the most ancient arts and sciences. Used by kings, queens and rulers from earliest history until the modern age, it was a core subject at universities, foundational in the education of the rich and elite. You had to be someone of importance to see an astrologer. Fortunately, today that is not the case. Astrology is a means of understanding ourselves and the way the heavens describe us in our character, and the unfolding of life events. Your natal chart is simply a cosmic blueprint of YOU. You made the choices, you are the code and the blueprint describes YOU!
Astrology gives us rich tools for understanding human character, and offers us a language for communicating our observations with others.
While we can use the natal chart (also called a birth chart or horoscope) as a “window” into any individual or event, we should never use it to pass judgment or to label people. Neither should we use it as an excuse for our behavior! We can never purport to know absolutely everything about someone just because we have their natal chart before us.
It is a good idea to approach Astrology as an imperfect language. Even if it were perfect, we are not, so our interpretations can never be considered anywhere close to perfect.
It follows to be wary of anyone claiming to be an Astrologer who also alleges to “know all”, or makes dire predictions. This kind of practice is not only irresponsible and misleading, it can affect the lives of those who believe them in adverse ways.
Astrology is a combination of science and psychology, with some cartographic skill (map reading) thrown in!
It will help you understand and expand yourself. It will give you confidence in who you are. It will give you courage, balance, affirmation and self-acceptance as you realize that every human has a unique and distinct cosmic coding. We are all different and meant to be that way. Celebrate the wonderful and unique creation that you are!It will bring you one step closer to self-actualization! It will show you the promises of your highest potential.
“Astrology is a Language. If you understand this language, The Sky Speaks to You.”― Dane Rudhyar,
*Astrology is not about sun signs
and the over generalized approach as seen in magazines and newspapers.
*Astrology is not a religious belief system.
*Astrology is not a fortune telling mechanism
that removes people’s free will in their response to the circumstances of their lives.
*The emphasis in Astrology is on YOU.
*We don’t make predictions. We point to potentials and themes in your life.
*We empower you to make better decisions.
*We focus on psychological and spiritual development and pinpoint paths of evolution.
