I want to be careful here: I’m not promoting pseudoscience and not trying to start arguments.

Over the last few months I’ve created my own little hobby of trying to learn astrology and astronomy at the same time. I don’t believe in astrology - but I’m open to see if my theories are wrong.

A major issue I’ve found is that astrologers don’t like questions they don’t feel support astrology as they know it. They don’t like debate. They don’t like to be challenged. If you don’t ask a question in a way they like, you’ll passive aggressive scolding along with a lesson on some pseudo science, then told to read some 500 page book. It’s so frustrating because I do

I don’t want to create beef between subs. But I do think it behooves astronomy to talk about astrology from a science based approach. Their refusal to have conversations about it, and their growing numbers, should encourage the astronomy world to have the talks they won’t. I have sooooooo many holes in astrology and want to see if there are answers.

Anyway, thoughts?
