Birth time can show the positions of celestial bodies relative to geographic location, and the effects are real, this can be seen in astrological weather forecasting for instance as meteorology was invented by astrologers,
as was medicine as well.
Bull.
I tend to be very tough on students to perform in the area of actual forecasting, for it is here that physical events can be noted, and measured. What most skeptics forget, and many do not know, is that there is a long history of analog data from astronomical observations that are used in forecasting.
Do you have this data available?
However, whether one wants to "believe" in it or not is personal, and has very little to do with Astrology, as it is applied by serious practitioners of the art and science.
Belief has nothing to do with objective truth.
There are a lot of game players in both the astrological and non-astrological sectors - and both are jokes in my perspective. They mean nothing simply because they are surface feeders who pass off their own personal "beliefs" and ignorance as facts when nothing could be further from the truth when it comes to the real story of Applied Astrology.
Okay, so what is the difference between Applied Astrology (with Capitals!) and regular astrology? What do you do differently?
For instance, in weather forecasting, which was the first use of applied astrology, you will find that celestial configurations throughout different geographic regions lead to various kinds of climate and weather. This has been seen for many centuries, and there is proven data to show the accuracy of astrological weather forecasting, mainly long-term climate and weather forecasting.
Bull.
There is a very serious history here, for Astrology gave birth to many of the sciences many now take for granted.
Bull.
It's like trying to prove the existence of "love" and then to measure it. Now, we all know that love does, in fact, exist, and that we cannot see it, yes?
How to prove that love really exists? Is that a waste of time or what? Of course it is.
Yes, love exists. It has been proven to exist. It, like other emotions, are chemical states in the brain. Therefore, this is a false analogy, and your argument about metaphysics falls apart when confronted with Russell's Teapot. Alternately, if you believe in the Teapot, it just plays hell with your astrological readings.
The Sun, Moon, and planets and stars do not require your "belief" for them to operate in our world, which they do electromagnetically. Distance is not an issue for those who know something about this, it is all in angles, movement, and the strengths and weaknesses in magnetic resonance.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
No.
F
em = k * (q
1 * q
2) / r
2
Where F
em is the electromagnetic force, k is a constant called the Electromagnetic Force Constant, q
1 and q
2 are the electric charges of the two objects involved and r is the distance between the two objects.
Distance matters.
Regarding magnetism. My assessment is correct. All of space, and every inch of our planet is filled with magnetic lines of influence and strength.
Yes, but these "lines" weaken in strength with distance from their source.
Distance is not a factor in astrological forecasting - mathematics is, and by angles of force, we make our forecasts. I under the phenomena of magnetic resonance very, very well as I have been applying it professionally as an astrologer.
Angles, by themselves, do nothing. They just show the direction of forces, and therefore, there must be forces acting between the stars and the person in question for astrology to have any merit. As the formula I gave above shows, they don't, and so your theory of astrological power is bunk.
There are plenty:
Medicine
Meteorology
Mathematics
Astronomy
Biology
Among others.
Yor're welcome.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Astronomy and Meteorology, maybe, but not the others.
There is a lot of ignorance and superstition among skeptics
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
especially when it comes to Astrology in its serious form. Most, if not all of the skeptics I encounter do not even know some of the most basic astronomical terms, and cannot even read an astronomical calendar much less come to any understanding of advanced astrology.
First of all, why would you expect them to be able to? Second of all, what does it matter?
Open some serious books, read, think, learn, and study. Then, when you've done enough reading, debate the topic like a grownup.
That they do not understand what being a true "skeptic" really is.
And you do? :rolleyes
I wouldn't presume to "prove" anything to you. I am quite aware of my own powers
Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold it. My woo detector is going off.
What powers?
and use them according to the principles of Applied Astrology. However, from the content of your posts, I seriously doubt if you've read one serious astrological text, much less a basic student book considering the shallowness of your own comments on this subject.
You are outclassed in debating a master astrologer on this topic, and should know better about being out of your league.
If you knew anything about electromagnetics, you would realize how outclassed you are in attempting to show that the electric fields of stars can affect our lives here on Earth (Sol aside, of course). Go read some science textbooks.
