Astrology, is a creative, symbolic, and oftentimes spiritual interpretation of astrological data. Variants of astrological systems can be found worldwide and traced back to the earliest civilizations in recorded history, such as the Babylonians, Greeks, Indians, Egyptians, Nubians, Iranians, Chinese, and Maya. Our ancestors all performed methodical observations of the night sky (early astronomy) and then used those observations to devise sophisticated and nuanced application for human benefit (astrology). Ancient Indian astrologers were highly valued as advisors to royalty, military, and priests for their ability to predict events, assess character and make accurate medical diagnoses.
