Astrology
Astrology encompasses traditions interpreting celestial positions and cycles through symbolic language. Position calculations and interpretive claims are different levels of analysis.How it is defined
Astronomy studies bodies and phenomena using observation and testable models. An accurately calculated position does not itself validate a personal prediction.
How to read it
Cultural context and the school of interpretation help explain its symbols. Exploring a tradition can open personal questions without turning its narrative into an established fact.
A concrete example
You can check the Sun’s calculated sign and then read an interpretation of purpose. One task computes a coordinate; the other proposes symbolic meaning.
