The history of astrology is as ancient as that of humanity. Mankind has observed the planets and stars for all of our recorded history. This means that it isn't surprising to learn that the growth of astrology mirrors the historical and philosophical developments of mankind in general.
It is unfortunate that the way astrology has been presented to the world for a long time is that of entertainment purposes only.' We see daily horoscopes by Sun sign in the newspapers and yearly forecasts also by Sun sign in books. This has given rise to significant misunderstandings of the usefulness of astrology.
This lecture will go into some of the specific misunderstandings many people have about astrology and how learning more about this ancient art and science is beneficial and lots of fun too. I will trace how the development of psychology, which began only 150 years ago, has influenced the ways in which astrology is used, and also how the 60's brought about the beginning of an enormous revolution in astrology.
