Astrology has never pretended be an unambiguous practice with precision accuracy, but science has.
Science is about predicting the future, by conducting carefully analyzed repeatable experiments,
within the confines of a laboratory, using accurate measuring systems and a finite list of components.
This is the science of the schoolroom, with which we are all familiar. How many of us are knowledgeable about the latest discoveries
of science? It is likely that a current specialist in the subject would refute this description of science, and I would argue that it is on
this same simplistic, uneducated basis that
Hindu Horoscope is judged
today.However, current scientific developments in the realm of quantum physics indicate that the sub-atomic world is very
different.Science is becoming metaphysical and we are told that results of experiments on this level change according to whether they
are being observed.In other words the consciousness of the observer plays a subjective role in the outcome of an experiment. Or, we
create our own reality (Jack Sarfatti physicist, "Implications of Meta-Physics for Psycho-energetic Systems" who states that the
structure of matter may not be independent of consciousness).
Astrology asserts that, according to the placement of planets at the time of our birth, our psychological drives and motivations, and
our conscious choices dictate our paths through life.At the same time, the continued cycles and positions of planets impact on our
individual life paths through mechanisms described as 'fate' or synchronicity, and the astrologer's role is to make sense of this!
Perhaps a time is fast approaching when science catches up with
Hindu Horoscope
and indeed is able to learn from astrological knowledge developed over thousands of years, and recognize its relevance in
today's complex society.
Saturn is the
mythological figure of Time, also known as Cronus and we have the expression 'Father Time'. This indicates a
certain authoritative figure, and we are all ruled by time.
Most of human misery and
dissatisfaction comes from either having too much time or not enough, or failing to achieve
something within a certain time frame. We praise people who have a perfect sense of timing', especially in performance arts and
comedy.
So we are all acutely aware of its existence, and yet we cannot contain it.
We have reached a point in our development where the precise measurement of sections of time has become paramount; we are ruled
by the clock, usually a digital one, as our working and leisure hours are compartmentalised into sections.
