Astrology is the science of knowing where the stars and planets are at any given time AND how the positions in relation to other stars might effect persons or events. It is not an attempt to predict the future. It is merely another perspective on information that may or may not have an effect on a thing. (Perhaps determining an auspicious time to do something vs. a bad time to do it. Astrology appeals to the ancient knowledge that led farmers to plant certain plants on certain days.)

I will not delete the following paragraph but I will say before it, that the validity of astrology as a science is debatable - with good arguments for both sides. I think the following paragraph only shows one side of the debate.
