color chart TipsSometimes we forget that this little diversion is actually part of an ancient science called astrology that has had a powerful effect on many cultures dating back to centuries before Christ. Have you ever finally just gave in to the temptation and read your horoscope in the newspaper on Sunday morning? Sure, we all have. For most of us, it’s a curiosity, an amusement to see what they say our day will be like based on the sign of the zodiac that we were born under. If we can treat each discipline with respect but maintain the separation that must exist between astrology and astronomy, there is no reason both approaches to our admiration of the galaxies cannot coexist in peace and harmony. And who knows, you might still like to read the horoscope on Sunday morning every so often. And for our purposes as astronomers, that harmony will allow us plenty of freedom to enjoy our quest for knowledge for many more centuries to come. color chart AdviceYet at the moment, even if we are connecting the influences of the stars and the planets in our lives, as how the Chaldeans, Babylonians, Egyptians and Greeks did 22 centuries ago, astrology is the calculated system that ahs been developed, thanks to scientific principles. The most significant shift that set in motion the separation of the two lines of thought began in the first century when Ptolemy wrote the very first book on astronomy called the Tetrabiblos. It was quite a revolutionary book because it also was the first scientific document to suggest that the earth was not the center of the universe and that astronomy should be focused strictly on the observation and recording of events in the cosmos. In it, he began to suggest that astronomy should be considered a separate science from astrology. color chart Facts
