All depends what system of astrology.
I prefer Rosicrucian. The art-science called "astr-ology" is the study of universal laws as they apply to evolutionarily unfolding consciousness; consciousness is the one primordial light and the symbols of the "lights"--Sun, Moon, and planets--are used to designate the faculties, vehicles, and powers by which unfolding consciousness becomes aware of divine consciousness. Just as our solar system is one of seven systems comprising a galaxy so each of our "solar-system-lights" is one of a family, inter-related to and interdependent upon each other and the central sun; all being externalizations of the divine creative consciousness of our Logos. Astrology is primarily not a "study of the stars"--that is the astronomer's job. The astrologer is a student of modes of consciousness which are externalized as the planetary, solar, and lunar bodies of our system. We humans have correspondence with these planetary bodies because we and they are creations of the same Divine Source and vibratory affinity aligns us all together in this solar system. The astronomer assists the astrologer in providing scientifically calculated data pertaining to the geocentric and heliocentric relationships of the "lights" to the belt of the zodiacal signs; this data is synchronized with time-space principles of incarnation for the calculation of the natal horoscope which symbolically pictures the present cyclic status of an evolving hu1nan consciousness. The "astr" of astrology refers to "star" only exoterically; esoterically and philosophically it refers to that light which is consciousness. It is by the degree and quality of evolving consciousness that all phenomena, experience, and relationship are interpreted; this refers to the physical body as well as to all environments, activities, endeavors, karmic lessons, aspirations, and ideals. All of these factors are symbolically pictured in essence by the natal horoscope; the sum-total of the "contents" of a chart represents the person's basic inclinations and tendencies in viewpoint--the specific result of the way he exercised his inclinations and tendencies in past lives up to the present life. When the astrological student establishes his awareness of the "astro-path" as being the study of consciousness--ever evolving through incarnated experience and patterned by the great archetypal Principles of the Universe--he will then appropriately evaluate each factor of the study to the basic core and thus maintain all evaluations in proper proportion and perspective. Every factor in a correctly calculated horoscope is an exact picturing of results in consciousness from causes in consciousness. Regeneration of consciousness determines improved conditions, more truthful evaluation of experience and a clearer and more perfect apperception of powers--potential and actual.

It seems just like a big trick to me.
If you generalize everything in well enough form you can make it seem like you can predict the future. "I predict that something will happen to you, tomorrow, around noon, while you are outside, just before you eat something for lunch, it will happen and you will be startled about it. So keep your head up and watch out for close calls. Think twice before you make a decision." Like comon, this could mean anything, from something big to little. Could be nothing more then a dog jutting out in front of you on your way to lunch. Some of them dont even speculate to anything in particualr, they just say a bunch of BS like "double check your decisions before you commit" or "You should keep your friends close today" then if anything in your life remotely resembles what the column said, OMG it must be real. |

If it's not a proven science (using approved scientific methods), and is solely based on observation without proof - then it's pseudoscience.
However, you should look at these things with an open mind. Borrow ideas and things from it, and make them work for you. A bit from here, a bit from there... it's all good - whether it's a proven science or a 'science appearing' pseudoscience. |

I think the best astrology is the kind that digs into the signs, we are all flawed, so poke fun at yourself. |
