Forget astrology as you know it. The back-page, popularized "Tropical" astrology that we are all familiar with is bogus. It doesn't even qualify as a pseudo-science, just an old one. The degrees and signs are all wrong. Today's astrology is bad astronomy. Tropical astrology has a static view from 2,000 years ago. Astronomic fact proves it. The numbers are off. The signs are wrong. If there's a choice between the wrong degree and the right degree, why do we hesitate? We have to choose Astronomy over tropical astrology, because star-gazing is and always has been at the core of astrology. How can astrology work, if it's not astronomically correct?

For 6,000 years, astronomy and astrology were inseparable. The astrologer and the astronomer were the same person! The two fields of study used the same map of the stars. Today however, astronomy is the reality, and astrology is the fallacy. Astrology has spurned science, and wanders at the fringes of incredulity.
Astrology is Broken
How did this happen? Most European and American astrologers use a system that doesn't match up to the sky anymore. They have tried to stop the time. Planets and objects in space are NOT where they say they are. Any horoscope made using Tropical astrology is a fraud. If we used their horoscope charts the way we use maps, we'd never reach our destination. That's why NASA doesn't use it, and astronomers think astrologers are idiots.
The majority of American astrologers are still using the horoscopes that only work for 100 ACE/AD. The Earth's rotational "wobble" has made it necessary to adjust the signs backwards 30 degrees or more since that time. But these astrologers don't do it, so their tropical system gets more inaccurate every day like a cheap watch.
How has astrology been reduced to little more than a superstition? Astrologers in Rome used it as a shill to glorify the old emperor, Augustus, who died around 40 ACE. The Romans changed it around to serve Rome, not the truth. They doomed modern astrology to replicate their propaganda ever since. Aside from the aspects and houses, tropical astrology would never get it right again.
Who Screwed Astrology?
Ptolemy: was he just wrong, or did he sell out?
The astrological view of the ecliptic was bastardized for the purposes of the Roman war-and-slaves machine, courtesy of Ptolemy, a second-rate astrologer who also believed the Sun revolved around the Earth. He not only forgot the precession of the equinoxes, (see below) but changed the gender and positions of the signs, based on the wishes of his imperial masters. Astronomy was thrown out the window.
By shackling the Zodiac to the Earth's seasons, he froze the vernal equinox at the Aries Spring of his era, even though it is moving backwards at a rate of 1 degree every 75 years. This meant that his version would not be accurate in the future. Today, spring occurs in March, during Pisces, making Ptolemaic astrology a relic. The Greeks and Romans also eliminated the powerful female constellations, or shortchanged their signs to animals. They killed Ophiuchus, the guardian of women.
Today, astrologers still use the Roman astrology, and more than 80% of us are told the wrong sign. Even if you don't believe in astrology you get bombarded with the wrong information. Finding the truth is easy, just look at the sky. Better yet, get a (free) planetarium app, Stellarium, and see it on your computer.
Ophiuchus is part of the Zodiac

See Ophiuchus, the suppressed constellation? It's on the ecliptic, too, right after Scorpio. It's one of the original 13 eponymous signs, which the tropical astrologers forgot to mention. The exclusion of Ophiuchus is the big lie that tropical astrologers have repeated so often that they themselves now believe it as fact.

Back to the Future
The way to change our astrology is to take it back to move it forward, using the ancient lunar-based 13-sign system that is still in accord with both NASA and the International Astronomical Union. 13 sign astrology solves all the problems of modern astrology, and puts us in sync with astronomy again. 13 sign astrology also resurrects the female signs of the original Zodiac and shows us are true signs, the way the universe intended. Science and astrology are reunited, and the horoscope is accurate once more.
Why are we still using a broken astrology at this late date? Now is time to change it. MORE

The point of equinox changes at about 50.29 arc seconds annually -- rotating backwards one degree every 75 years.

The 2 Theories About Precession Our orientation to the larger universe is constantly shifting. There is something that causes the vernal equinox (the meeting place of the celestial and ecliptic plane) to go in a backwards cycle around the ecliptic, returning to its starting place over an estimated period of 26,000 years. This is called the precession of the equinoxes and it is why our first day of spring is always changing, moving backwards along the calendar days. The reasons for the precession are unknown, but there are two main theories: The Gravitational Theory The Binary System (Polarity Theory) The Binary theory has made a big comeback recently because of the the flaws in gravitational theory.
