Where Does the Science of the Stars Come From?

Image
 Astrology, like any other human activity, has its roots right from the very beginnings of human existence on the planet we call Earth. The problem is that in most cases we lack material evidence that could prove the broken epochs of history reaching even deeper into the past. Sometimes there are only stories, myths, and legends that can fill in the missing link. However, the problem with today’s science is that it relies exclusively on tangible evidence. Another, less highlighted but equally important problem is the egocentrism of the West — the tendency to ignore or downplay the achievements of earlier epochs and civilizations, starting from the golden age of Islam and going further back. This alone could fill an entire book, and it can be seen clearly with nothing more than common-sense thinking and without much research or proof. That is why, in this text, we will explore the beginnings of astrology/astronomy using imagination, assumptions, and ideas that step outside the frame...

The Great Universe – The Small Universe

Image
 Astrology not only teaches us, through knowledge and wisdom gathered over millennia, about the connection between humanity and nature, but also about the connection between humanity and the universe. Even more, astrology teaches us that each of us is a small universe, through which the great universe speaks. We too are infinite and vast, yet infinitely small in relation to the great universe. The natal horoscope is precisely the material representation of how the great universe is reflected in us and materialized in the form of our body and the life path we walk. Although the natal horoscope takes into account the planets of our Solar System — which form only a tiny speck of the Universe — they are powerful and influential enough to affect the course of our life and reveal the blueprint of our soul, our potentials. To some this may seem unfounded because there is no visible or measurable connection between our character, destiny, talents we possess, and the planets and their influ...

Man and the Stars

Image
 Modern civilization has brought countless benefits—some of which would have seemed like science fiction to people from the past, even to those living just 15 or 20 years ago. At the same time, new ironies emerge in this era. Instead of inspiring us and opening new horizons, today’s trends increasingly close us off from one another and nurture fears of real social contact. Our gaze is directed downward: once we would stare thoughtfully at the asphalt beneath our feet while pondering an uncertain future; today we stare, captivated, at the colorful screens of our smartphones. That’s what they’re called now—no longer just “mobiles.” Imagine now a moment several thousand years ago: no streetlights, no city crowds, just you and nature. Blessed silence, surrounded by sounds you can only hear in the wild. It’s night, the sky flooded with stars—something unimaginable today in cities, or even their outskirts. Just you, nature, a few scattered people, houses far in the distance. You feel the...

Astrology – A New Beginning

Image
 It’s been quite a while since my last post, and a lot has happened in the meantime. However, my interest in astrology has never faded – on the contrary, it has only grown stronger. A lot has “landed” for me lately; new things, insights, and realizations have opened up, and it would take pages and pages to describe them all. Everything together has brought me back to this blog, as if climbing spiral stairs – I find myself in the same place, but on a higher level, with a better view and new topics I want to share with you, the readers. I’ve come to realize that astrology has been present throughout the entire history of humanity, regardless of its status – whether accepted or persecuted, it has always been there. Just like the stars shine tirelessly and persistently, giving us humans on Earth the feeling that some things are truly permanent, that we can rely on them and use them as a compass in life – despite the constant changes, stress, challenges, and rush of life on Earth. That ...

Destiny

Image
Destiny, a word that often makes our hair stand on end and arouses all kinds of fears. One of the reasons is that destiny has a bad reputation, as it is accompanied by the reputation of being unchangeable and that we are its hostages, helpless to change anything. Fortunately, the truth is not exactly like that, because changes are always possible, but the vast majority of people still prove the unchangeability of fate with their outdated and limiting beliefs. Moreover, such a situation even suits us, because sometimes we use destiny as an excuse or justification and it comes in handy to defend the existing situation, and sometimes destiny is an excellent excuse for false modesty, especially when circumstances are in our favor (well, what can you do, it's destiny...) However, for me, destiny is like a framework and a sketch, and it's up to us how we will fill that frame and turn the sketch into a drawing or even better, a painting. For example, the soul sets out to gain some exp...

The Summer Solstice

Image
This summer, on 20.06.2024, begins another summer solstice. The most powerful day of the year, when the Sun is at the peak of its strength and at its highest point in the sky, at least as it concerns the northern hemisphere of Earth. On the other hand, on the southern hemisphere of our planet, the Sun is at its lowest point in the sky. It’s interesting how one event can have a completely different manifestation, because as long as we are on Earth and in this material dimension, things are relative and dependent on the point of view. So, what is happening these days in the sky? This magnificent display in the sky is due to the movement of the Earth around the Sun. Earth's path along the imaginary circle we call the ecliptic has come to the extreme point from where it returns on the other side of the circle. It's like a peak because the Earth's orbit around the Sun is more elliptical, an elongated circle, and precisely those two ends of that circle on Earth are manifested as ...

Astrology from scratch

Image
So even when we take crayon in hand and make our first scratch on the clean, white, empty canvas, what do we know before that? Of course, we need some instructions. Like how to hold the crayons and what effect it can make.  So the essential things are instructions, some guidelines how to cope with this vast knowledge, how to learn all this combination and understand and grasp the stories and even after we learn all this, after getting some feeling of all of this we are still like surgeon that holds his tool in hand and  has to make his first cut, with no experience at all, just theory and a lot of hours of observing his more experienced colleagues how they made their operations. It is the matter of life and death, both in example of the surgeon as in case of astrology. The first one can kill by mistake of the tools, making wrong cut, the astrologer can kill by his words, giving someone unintentionally lie that there is some happiness waiting for us, or some disaster is lurking...
