The ascendant rules the outer personality - the way a person actually presents to the world. ~ Rosemary Breen
Astrology quotes by Rosemary Breen
About astrology and palmistry: they are good because they make people vivid and full of possibilities. They are communism at its best. Everybody has a birthday and almost everybody has a palm. ~ Kurt Vonnegut
Astrology quotes by Kurt Vonnegut
The natures and dispositions of men are, not without truth, distinguished from the predominance of the planets. ~ Francis Bacon
Astrology quotes by Francis Bacon
I thought about my [Punjabi] family. The only nakshatram we think about is the division of petrol pumps when we have to see the girl. ~ Chetan Bhagat
Astrology quotes by Chetan Bhagat
As you will have no doubt foreseen...

- Kelvin McKenzie, The Sun's editor; Preamble of the letter he sent to the paper's astrologer he was firing ~ Kelvin MacKenzie
Astrology quotes by Kelvin MacKenzie
The Nephilim was something I'd known about since I was really young. If you're familiar with the first book of the Bible, Genesis, you see the sons of God seduce some of the women on the earth and they produce a race of people known as the Nephilim. According to legend they taught man about war, astrology, and magic. I'm fascinated by the idea, ~ Carl McCoy
Astrology quotes by Carl McCoy
Astrology furnishes a splendid proof of the contemptible subjectivity of men. It refers the course of celestial bodies to the miserable ego: it establishes a connection between the comets in heaven and squabbles and rascalities on earth. ~ Arthur Schopenhauer
Astrology quotes by Arthur Schopenhauer
On the one hand, you have a wonderfully caring, magnetic personality that draw people in close. On the other hand, you come across as standoffish, even reclusive. While both personalities are, in fact, who you are, at any one moment which side you show to the world depends on who you are with and the circumstances you are in. ~ Rosemary Breen
Astrology quotes by Rosemary Breen
I don't believe in astrology. It's a lot of crap. I just think that's another thing you should throw out the window. Mysticism. Cheap. It's amazing that people still hang on to that after all these years. ~ Mick Jagger
Astrology quotes by Mick Jagger
A surprising fact about the magician Bernard Kornblum, Joe remembered, was that he believed in magic. Not in the so-called magic of candles, pentagrams, and bat wings. Not in the kitchen enchantments of Slavic grandmothers with their herbiaries and parings from the little toe of a blind virgin tied up in a goatskin bag. Not in astrology, theosophy, chiromancy, dowsing rods, séances, weeping statues, werewolves, wonders, or miracles. What bewitched Bernard Kornblum, on the contrary, was the impersonal magic of life, when he read in a magazine about a fish that could disguise itself as any one of seven different varieties of sea bottom, or when he learned from a newsreel that scientists had discovered a dying star that emitted radiation on a wavelength whose value in megacycles approximated π. In the realm of human affairs, this type of enchantment was often, though not always, a sadder business - sometimes beautiful, sometimes cruel. Here its stock-in-trade was ironies, coincidences, and the only true portents: those that revealed themselves, unmistakable and impossible to ignore, in retrospect. ~ Michael Chabon
Astrology quotes by Michael Chabon
Cruising along once again in this cesspool known as life, I realize that it is too late to make a detour. I will have to pass the anti-abortion pickets (50) outside of Planned Parenthood. Nothing gets on my nerves more than these pro-lifers. Not even astrology enthusiasts (51), Herman Hesse (52) or computer games (53). Look at these fools parading up and down! "Mind your own business," I yell. When one of these busybodies (a man, yet) approaches my car with literature, I lose control and scream, "I wish I was a girl so I could get an abortion!" Trembling with rage, I realize I'd better calm down before I get beat up, but can't resist one last taunt - "I hate the pope" (54), I yell to no one in particular. ~ John Waters
Astrology quotes by John Waters
Astrology can never give you the answers to life's deepest questions - especially where you will spend eternity. Commit your life to Christ. It will give you joyous confidence that your future is securely in His hands - tomorrow and forever. ~ Billy Graham
Astrology quotes by Billy Graham
I think I might have a bad psychic advisor. When I asked her to contact the dead, she gave me Keith Richards' phone number. ~ David Letterman
Astrology quotes by David Letterman
The puzzling thing is that there is really a curious coincidence between astrological and psychological facts, so that one can isolate time from the characteristics of an individual, and also, one can deduce characteristics from a certain time ... ~ Carl Jung
Astrology quotes by Carl Jung
THE GLOBAL GAME RUNNING ON MYTHOLOGICAL GOD PRINCIPLES.WHICH ARE UNKNOWN MYSTERY WONDERS DIVINE CONCEPT CREATION SINCE INCEPTION OF GIGANTIC UNIVERSE SO,ASTROLOGY WILL FLASH THE SECRETS OF UNIVERSE SHOW AS PER TIME SCHEDULE.A SOUND ASTROLOGER CUM MANTHRA SIDDHI SAINT PERSON ONLY REVEALS THE TRUTH IN TIME.NOTHING IS UNDERSTOOD TO ANYONE BEFORE TIME.SO,WAIT AND SEE. ~ Various
Astrology quotes by Various
Astrology is a fact, in most instances. But astrological aspects are but signs, symbols. No influence is of greater value or of greater help than the will of an individual ... Do not attempt to be guided by, but use the astrological influences as the means to meet or to overcome the faults and failures, or to minimize the faults and to magnify the virtues in self. ~ Edgar Cayce
Astrology quotes by Edgar Cayce

Chapter 1
Four Cookies and a Funeral



Yesterday I went on Craigslist and hired a Tarot reader to tell me whether I was in any danger of losing my job. I wasn't really worried because last week, an astrologer I'd also found on Craigslist, had told me there was no major movement in the sixth house, which is the area of my chart that governs work. But just in case, I met with the Tarot card reader who told me everything was going to be okay.
Today I got canned. ~ Alexandra Ares
Astrology quotes by Alexandra Ares
White folks was in the caves while we [blacks] was building empires ... We built pyramids before Donald Trump ever knew what architecture was ... we taught philosophy and astrology and mathematics before Socrates and them Greek homos ever got around to it. ~ Al Sharpton
Astrology quotes by Al Sharpton
Astrology reveals the will of the gods. ~ Juvenal
Astrology quotes by Juvenal
It's common knowledge that a large percentage of Wall Street brokers use astrology. ~ Donald T. Regan
Astrology quotes by Donald T. Regan
The desire to be connected with the cosmos reflects a profound reality, but we are connected; not in the trivial ways that astrology promises, but in the deepest ways. ~ Carl Sagan
Astrology quotes by Carl Sagan
It was a long time ago. I was talking to a friend about astrology, and he mentioned the Seth books. I'd never heard of them, but I intuitively knew they were important to me. It sounds very romantic, but it really was like that. I took an interest in them right away for no reason. ~ Francis Dunnery
Astrology quotes by Francis Dunnery
The hold of the evolutionary paradigm is so powerful that an idea which is more like a principle of medieval astrology than a serious twentieth century scientific theory has become a reality for evolutionary biologists. ~ Michael Denton
Astrology quotes by Michael Denton
These auspicious aspects, which the astrologers subsequently interpreted for me, may have been the causes of my preservation. ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Astrology quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
There is something to astrology for those who believe in astrology, as there is something to medicine for those who believe in medicine. Every system works when we give our heart to it. ~ Richard Bach
Astrology quotes by Richard Bach
Individuals blind to the sexual opposite within them, be they men or women, never realise that the partner they choose is chosen because he or she bears some resemblance to the anima or animus. The anger and hurt felt at the 'true discovery' of the partner's failings is really anger and hurt directed at oneself; and this would become apparent, were one to see the dark figure within one's own unconscious impelling one into a particular relationship. Like always attracts like; rather than railing at the partner, one should take a long, close look at one's own psychic makeup. But it is easier to complain bitterly --- to analysts, marriage counsellors, and also astrologers --- that yet another relationship has collapsed and yet another partner has proved to be a bad choice. It is also fashionable to blame this on the failures of the parent of the opposite sex; but the past continues to live within a person not only because in some way it is part of his own substance, but also because he permits it to do so.
When a disastrous relationship occurs once, we may fool ourselves into believing it is chance; when it occurs twice, it has become a pattern, and a pattern is an unmistakable indication that the anima or animus is at work in the unconscious, propelling the helpless ego into relationships or situations which are baffling, painful, and frighteningly repetitive. Again, it is much wiser to look within oneself for the source of the pattern, rather than at the inherent failure ~ Liz Greene
Astrology quotes by Liz Greene
I am of the level with common Astrologers; who, with an old paltry cant, and a few pot-hooks for planets to amuse the vulgar, have too long been suffered to abuse the world. ~ Jonathan Swift
Astrology quotes by Jonathan Swift
No date prefixed directs me in the starry rubric set. ~ John Milton
Astrology quotes by John Milton
In the seventeenth century, the science of medicine had not wholly cut asunder from astrology and necromancy; and the trusting Christian still believed in some occult influences, chiefly planetary, which governed not only his crops but his health and life. ~ Alice Morse Earle
Astrology quotes by Alice Morse Earle
All superstition is much the same whether it be that of astrology, dreams, omen, retributive judgment, or the like, in all of which the deluded believers observe events which are fulfilled, but neglect and pass over their failure, though it be much more common. ~ Francis Bacon
Astrology quotes by Francis Bacon
I'd better say at the start that I don't actually believe in magic any more than I believe in astrology, because I'm a Taurean and we don't go in for all that weirdo occult stuff. ~ Terry Pratchett
Astrology quotes by Terry Pratchett
The atheist barista (who's obsessed with astrology) asked me, "So what's your sign?" I responded, "The sign of the cross." I think she spit in my coffee ... ~ Mark Hart
Astrology quotes by Mark Hart
There is a philosophy that says that if something is unobservable
unobservable in principle
it is not part of science. If there is no way to falsify or confirm a hypothesis, it belongs to the realm of metaphysical speculation, together with astrology and spiritualism. By that standard, most of the universe has no scientific reality
it's just a figment of our imaginations. ~ Leonard Susskind
Astrology quotes by Leonard Susskind
I am an Aries. Although I do not believe in astrology, I think this is exactly the right sign to have been born under. ~ Anne Lamott
Astrology quotes by Anne Lamott
Some of what these pamphlets [of astrological forecasts] say will turn out to be true, but most of it time and experience will expose as empty and worthless. The latter part will be forgotten literally: written on the winds while the former will be carefully entered in people's memories, as is usual with the crowd. ~ Johannes Kepler
Astrology quotes by Johannes Kepler
No study has taken so much of human energy, whether in times past or present, as the study of the soul, of God, and of human destiny. ~ Swami Vivekananda
Astrology quotes by Swami Vivekananda
I submit that the traditional definition of psychiatry, which is still vogue, places it alongside such things as alchemy and astrology, and commits it to the category of pseudo-science. ~ Thomas Szasz
Astrology quotes by Thomas Szasz
The widest cause of secularization may be the steady change of thinking so that there is the expectation that reason and a consideration of cause and effect will help with explanations. Supernatural power began to be removed from explanations of the process of life or society in the seventeenth century, and although there may be a nod towards astrology or the crossed finger today, superstition is not seriously used in decision making ...
Scientific thinking, which similarly developed in the seventeenth century, has been influential in bringing this change. We now see that tornadoes and earthquakes have rational explanations in terms of climatology and seismology rather than as divine punishments. Most people when deciding whether to take a new job, embark on a divorce, or simply plan a holiday will not seek divine guidance, but rather discuss with themselves or others the issues of cause and effect. ~ Jim Herrick
Astrology quotes by Jim Herrick
Have faith that what you require already exists and you only have to retrieve it. ~ Laraine Mesavage
Astrology quotes by Laraine Mesavage
What You Should Know to be a Poet"

all you can know about animals as persons.
the names of trees and flowers and weeds.
the names of stars and the movements of planets
and the moon.
your own six senses, with a watchful elegant mind.
at least one kind of traditional magic:
divination, astrology, the book of changes, the tarot;

dreams.
the illusory demons and the illusory shining gods.
kiss the ass of the devil and eat sh*t;
fuck his horny barbed cock,
fuck the hag,
and all the celestial angels
and maidens perfum'd and golden-

& then love the human: wives husbands and friends
children's games, comic books, bubble-gum,
the weirdness of television and advertising.

work long, dry hours of dull work swallowed and accepted
and lived with and finally lovd. exhaustion,
hunger, rest.

the wild freedom of the dance, extasy
silent solitary illumination, entasy

real danger. gambles and the edge of death. ~ Gary Snyder
Astrology quotes by Gary Snyder
We consult astrology charts like the Babylonians, try to make our children into our own image with a firm hand like the Romans, elbow others to get a breath-quickening glimpse of the queen in her ritual procession, and confess to the priests and attend church. And we wonder why, with all this power capital drawn from so many sources, we are deeply anxious about the meaning of our lives. The reason is plain enough: none of these, nor all of them taken together, represents an integrated world conception into which we fit ourselves with pure belief and trust. ~ Ernest Becker
Astrology quotes by Ernest Becker
A touchstone to determine the actual worth of an "intellectual" - find out how he feels about astrology. ~ Robert A. Heinlein
Astrology quotes by Robert A. Heinlein
Faithful horoscope-watching, practiced daily, provides just the sort of small but warm and infinitely reassuring fillip that gets matters off to a spirited start. ~ Shana Alexander
Astrology quotes by Shana Alexander
You possess a unique, innate ability to see most aspects of most situations all at once! ~ Rosemary Breen
Astrology quotes by Rosemary Breen
The vast majority, who believe in astrology and think that the planets have nothing better to do than form a code that will tell them whether tomorrow is a good day to close a business deal or not, become all the more excited and enthusiastic. ~ Isaac Asimov
Astrology quotes by Isaac Asimov
Astrology is like any other branch of knowledge. It can be used for good or for ill, properly or improperly, by skilled and unskilled practitioners alike. ~ Elizabeth Clare Prophet
Astrology quotes by Elizabeth Clare Prophet
They often say, "What's the point in astrology if you can't change your
destiny?". Well, it's true that you can't change your destiny, but still it helps
knowing about gravity. ~ Kedar Joshi
Astrology quotes by Kedar Joshi
The Birth-chart has to be understood as the archetype or seed-pattern of one's individual being - as the 'symbolic' form of one's individuality, and therefore also of one's destiny, for the two are identical. ~ Dane Rudhyar
Astrology quotes by Dane Rudhyar
Astrology is astronomy brought down to Earth and applied toward the affairs of men. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Astrology quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
In fact, the whole of mythology could be taken as a sort of projection of the collective unconscious ~ Carl Jung
Astrology quotes by Carl Jung
Before a war military science seems a real science, like astronomy; but after a war it seems more like astrology. ~ Rebecca West
Astrology quotes by Rebecca West
Astrology Is A Way If You Understand, Every Shred Will Talk With You… ~ Axay D. Bhisikar
Astrology quotes by Axay D. Bhisikar
(I invented rock and roll. You wouldn't believe the things I've invented. Anal sex, obviously. Smoking. Astrology. Money ... Let's save time: Everything in the world that distracts you from thinking about God. Which ... pretty much ... is everything in the world, isn't it? Gosh.) ~ Glen Duncan
Astrology quotes by Glen Duncan
For all its complexity, however, astrology remains fundamentally simple. It offers a time-honored system of symbols that sum up key aspects of human life while providing profound insights and practical guidance. ~ Anne M. Nordhaus-Bike
Astrology quotes by Anne M. Nordhaus-Bike
I'm a typical Capricorn. I'm hardworking, loyal, sometimes stubborn, and I don't believe in astrology. ~ Jonah Peretti
Astrology quotes by Jonah Peretti
It would seem, O Nushain, that you have doubted your own horoscope,' said the guide, with a certain irony. 'However, even a bad astrologer, on occasion, may read the heavens aright. Obey, then, the stars that decreed your journey. ~ Clark Ashton Smith
Astrology quotes by Clark Ashton Smith
It's so hard to believe in anything anymore. I mean, it's like, religion, you really can't take it seriously, because it seems so mythological, it seems so arbitrary ... but, on the other hand, science is just pure empiricism, and by virtue of its method, it excludes metaphysics. I guess I wouldn't believe in anything anymore if it weren't for my lucky astrology mood watch. ~ Steve Martin
Astrology quotes by Steve Martin
Fact.
Pisces is THE most wobbly sign of the Zodiac. ~ Mary English
Astrology quotes by Mary English
There is no better boat than a horoscope to help a man cross over the sea of life. ~ Varahamihira
Astrology quotes by Varahamihira
The controls of life are structured as forms and nuclear arrangements, in a relation with the motions of the universe. ~ Louis Pasteur
Astrology quotes by Louis Pasteur
The Stars are a long way off, and their words get somewhat dulled in the message. ~ Bram Stoker
Astrology quotes by Bram Stoker
Investors look at economic fundamentals; traders look at each other; 'quants' look at the data. Dealing on the basis of historic price series was once described as technical analysis, or chartism (and there are chartists still). These savants identify visual patterns in charts of price data, often favouring them with arresting names such as 'head and shoulders' or 'double bottoms'. This is pseudo-scientific bunk, the financial equivalent of astrology. But more sophisticated quantitative methods have since proved profitable for some since the 1970s' creation of derivative markets and the related mathematics. Profitable ~ John Kay
Astrology quotes by John Kay
Rooster/Pisces: Likes shiny things. ~ Suzanne White
Astrology quotes by Suzanne White
Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy the mad daughter of a wise mother. These daughters have too long dominated the earth. ~ Voltaire
Astrology quotes by Voltaire
In Astrology, the moon, among its other meanings, has that of "the common people," who submit (they know not why) to any independent will that can express itself with sufficient energy. The people who guillotined the mild Louis XVI died gladly for Napoleon. The impossibility of an actual democracy is due to this fact of mob-psychology. As soon as you group men, they lose their personalities. A parliament of the wisest and strongest men in the nation is liable to behave like a set of schoolboys, tearing up their desks and throwing their inkpots at each other. The only possibility of co-operation lies in discipline and autocracy, which men have sometimes established in the name of equal rights. ~ Aleister Crowley
Astrology quotes by Aleister Crowley
Well, one gets out of bed and the planets don't always hiss or muck up the day, each day. ~ Anne Sexton
Astrology quotes by Anne Sexton
It is a sin to follow your horoscope because only God knows the future and He won't tell us. Also, we can tell horoscopes are false because according to astrology, Christ would have been a Capricorn, and Capricorn people are cold, ambitious and attracted to Scorpio and Virgo, and we know that Christ was warm, loving, and not attracted to anybody. ~ Christopher Durang
Astrology quotes by Christopher Durang
ABC of LIBRA
AMIABLE – Certainly the friendliest of signs – the most sociable, amenable, and gregarious. Libra loves people. And people cannot help loving Librans in return, simply because they are so loveable. ~ Bernie Morris
Astrology quotes by Bernie Morris
I tried Zen and Ching, numerology, tarot cards and astrology. I tried to look back into the Bible, and could not find anything. At this time I did not know anything about Islam, and then, what I regarded as a miracle occurred. My brother had visited the mosque in Jerusalem, and was greatly impressed that while on the one hand it throbbed with life. ~ Cat Stevens
Astrology quotes by Cat Stevens
Astrology is framed by the devil, to the end people may be scared from entering into the state of matrimony, and from every divine and human office and calling. ~ Martin Luther
Astrology quotes by Martin Luther
The stars which shone over Babylon and the stable in Bethlehem still shine as brightly over the Empire State Building and your front yard today. ~ Linda Goodman
Astrology quotes by Linda Goodman
The signs of the zodiac are karmic patterns; the planets are the looms; the will is the weaver. ~ Edgar Cayce
Astrology quotes by Edgar Cayce
I think astrology is annoying bullshit-which is so Libra of me ~ Dan Savage
Astrology quotes by Dan Savage
It sounds superficially fair. But it presupposes that that there is something in Christian theology to be ignorant about. The entire thrust of my position is that Christian theology is a non-subject. It is empty. Vacuous. Devoid of coherence or content. I imagine that McGrath would join me in expressing disbelief in fairies, astrology and Thor's hammer. How would he respond if a fairyologist, astrologer or Viking accused him of ignorance of their respective subjects? ~ Richard Dawkins
Astrology quotes by Richard Dawkins
Anyone can be a millionaire, but to become a billionaire you need an astrologer. ~ J. P. Morgan
Astrology quotes by J. P. Morgan
But you should see the sky tonight.
Screw your astrology apps. Screw your games. Look up sometime. There is a whole wing of positive psychology--my therapist told me--that says the greatest way to affect your outlook on life is to consider what you already have more than what you don't have. And so I might not have a cell phone on me, or a sister at home, or a Dad at all, or a future, but holy shit I have the sky. ~ Tim Federle
Astrology quotes by Tim Federle
When you say someone is stubborn and irrational because they're black, that's racism. When you say someone is stubborn and irrational because they're female, that's sexism. When you say someone is stubborn and irrational because they're a leo, that's astrology. Notice a pattern? It's all nonsense. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Astrology quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
Our jovial star reigned at his birth. ~ William Shakespeare
Astrology quotes by William Shakespeare
There should be three days a week when no one is allowed to say: 'What's your sign?' Violators would have their copies of Kahlil Gibran confiscated. ~ Dick Cavett
Astrology quotes by Dick Cavett
Who knows the power that Saturn has over us, or Venus? But it is a vital power, rippling exquisitely through us all the time. ~ D.H. Lawrence
Astrology quotes by D.H. Lawrence
Astrology is a language. If you understand this language, the sky speaks to you. ~ Dane Rudhyar
Astrology quotes by Dane Rudhyar
Astrology is the Via Regia to the enchanted cosmos. ~ Richard Tarnas
Astrology quotes by Richard Tarnas
Astrology has no more useful function than this, to discover the inmost nature of a man and to bring it out into his consciousness, that he may fulfil it according to the law of light. ~ Aleister Crowley
Astrology quotes by Aleister Crowley
Psychiatry is to medicine what astrology is to astronomy. ~ Leonard Roy Frank
Astrology quotes by Leonard Roy Frank
The starry vault of heaven is in truth the open book of cosmic projection, in which are reflected the mythologems, i.e., the archetypes. In this vision astrology and alchemy, the two classical functionaries of the psychology of the collective unconscious, join hands. ~ C. G. Jung
Astrology quotes by C. G. Jung
Do you believe in astrology? -I don't even believe in astronomy. ~ Peter De Vries
Astrology quotes by Peter De Vries
It is clearly evident that most events of a widespread nature draw their causes from the enveloping heavens. ~ Ptolemy
Astrology quotes by Ptolemy
Astrology is a disease, not a science. ~ Maimonides
Astrology quotes by Maimonides
You can tell a lot about someone's personality if you know his star sign -Jesus, born on 25 December, fed the five thousand, walked on water -typical Capricorn. ~ Harry Hill
Astrology quotes by Harry Hill
That black, maddening firmament; that vast cosmic ocean, endlessly deep in every direction, both Heaven and Pandemonium at once; mystical Zodiac, speckled flesh of Tiamat; all that is chaos, infinite and eternal. And yet, it's somehow the bringing to order of this chaos which perhaps has always disturbed me most. The constellations, in their way, almost bring into sharper focus the immensity and insanity of it all - monsters and giants brought to life in all their gigantic monstrosity; Orion and Hercules striding across the sky, limbs reaching for lightyears, only to be dwarfed by the likes of Draco, Pegasus, or Ursa Major. Then bigger still - Cetus, Eridanus, Ophiuchus, and Hydra, spanning nearly the whole of a hemisphere, sunk below the equator in that weird underworld of obscure southern formations. You try to take them in - the neck cranes, the eyes roll, and the mind boggles until this debilitating sense of inverted vertigo overcomes you ... ~ Mark X.
Astrology quotes by Mark X.
Many skeptics, it is true, are inclined to dismiss the whole procedure [chart reading] as akin to astrology or necromancy; but the sheer weight of its importance in Wall Street requires that its pretensions be examined with some degree of care. ~ Benjamin Graham
Astrology quotes by Benjamin Graham
Astrology is a cousin of racism. ~ Penn Jillette
Astrology quotes by Penn Jillette
Religion is but a single brand of superstition (others include beliefs in astrology, paranormal phenomena, homeopathy, and spiritual healing), but it is the most widespread and harmful form of superstition. And science is but one form of rationality (philosophy and mathematics are others), but it is a highly developed form, and the only one capable of describing and understanding reality. ~ Jerry A. Coyne
Astrology quotes by Jerry A. Coyne
But it's the science of the stars!"
"She thinks it's Satanic. You gave her daughter a pentagram."
"It's a natal chart, duh. You can't let ignorance trump science here, Miss Mary! ~ Felicia Day
Astrology quotes by Felicia Day
The tendency to believe vague statements designed to appeal to just about anyone is called the Forer effect, and psychologists point to this phenomenon to explain why people fall for pseudoscience like biorhythms, iridology, and phrenology, or mysticism like astrology, numerology, and tarot cards. ~ David McRaney
Astrology quotes by David McRaney
Professor Schumann Antelme makes it clear that the Egyptians viewed the tomb as a remote-control switch that caused actions in heaven in response to the terrestrial activities with which they were associated. This concept can be summed up best by the alchemists' celebrated formula of "as above, so below," which in other words means that there is a precise correspondence between heaven and earth. This theory is also the rationale behind astrology and other esoteric doctrines. The alchemical tradition, and all religious tradition, had its origin in the sacred science of the ancient Egyptians. ~ Ruth Schumann Antelme
Astrology quotes by Ruth Schumann Antelme
We should not imagine that this means our fate is fixed by our planets, however. Even though each vital organ corresponds to a planet - the liver to Jupiter, the brain to the moon, the heart to the sun, the spleen to Saturn, the lungs to Mercury, the gallbladder to Mars, and the kidneys to Venus - yet the one is not governed by the other: "Saturn has nothing to do with the spleen, nor the spleen anything to do with Saturn." Rather, these correspondences are simply a manifestation of the cosmic mirror that makes man a microcosm of the universal macrocosm. The two are analogs but are not causally related. From a scale model of a building you can read the proportions and relationships of the building itself, but crushing the former does not raze the latter. ~ Philip Ball
Astrology quotes by Philip Ball
Those people have seen 'something'. What it is I do not know and I can not care to know. ~ Albert Einstein
Astrology quotes by Albert Einstein
We could begin to allow the history of science to curb scientific awe by imposing a rating system, like those used with movies and television. Any scientific claim that lasts longer than a millennium, we'll rate "GC" for "Getting Close." For claims that stand for five hundred years, we'll rate "KP," for "Kinda Probable;" for a century, "PF" for Probably False;" for fifty years, "ACF" for "Almost Certainly False;" for twenty years and less, "TLA," for "Treat Like Astrology. ~ Douglas M. Jones III
Astrology quotes by Douglas M. Jones III
Azazel is also listed as one of the Watchers, angelic creatures from the Book of Enoch, a text no longer canonical under any large Christian faith. These Watchers were not expelled from Paradise, but were punished by god for having children with humans, and teaching them science, technology, and other crafts. Azazel in particular taught humans how to make weapons, as well as ornaments and cosmetics. Other Watchers taught them how to write and make paper, how to read signs and predict the weather, and how to study the heavens with astrology. ~ Anonymous
