Astrology

Astronomy and astrology are two different fields of study.

Astronomy examines the positions, motions, and properties of celestial objects, while astrology studies how those positions, motions, and properties affect people and events on Earth.

Astronomy is a natural science, while astrology is a humanistic science.

Astronomy requires a Ph.D. in the physical sciences, while astrology requires years of studying celestial bodies through a scientific and interpretive lens.

Astrology originated in Mesopotamia and later spread to India, while astronomy is based on the belief that the movement of planets and stars has an effect on human affairs and the world.
