  1. Do you smoke cigars, maybe?

  2. This is how astrologers usually attempt to escape explanation. Just make it vague. Problem solved...

  3.  @ProfessorDaveExplains  This is fake knowledge, which means you can't fight it with it's own facts as there are none and infinite at the same time. Imagine twins "identify" differently. One with the sun, the other with the moon, combined with "special" relationships with other celestial bodies. I once read that astrologers had a problem with that space mission that impacted a comet and slightly changed it's future trajectory, which of course had influence on random things. While that particular comet was way out of sight for small telescopes... No problem, factual critics against what is fully fiction can always be handled. Astrologers are always right, even if they tell different stories.

  4.  @ProfessorDaveExplains  No doubt about it being completely nonsense. No predictive capabilities have ever been verified. I admit I never looked at these charts. So, it's a limited amount of information that doesn't allow minor celestial differences to be interpreted ? Something like a clock that provides constant set of parameters per time interval.

  6.  @mathnerd97  The situation at any moment will never appear again. I'm usually uninterested in astrology but for what I have seen, they have no problems with tearing apart basic fundamentals until any claim fits in what is left. In this case, why not drop orbital data and the actual distances to objects, as redshift and parallax measurements provide? Then you're left with what looks like a 2d view on the universe where all the stars are static and the planets have "unpredictable" paths. Then you can make up anything out of it... At least they should redefine the zodiac. We're not Babylonians and the earth has a precession cycle. Many people technically are "bound" to multiple constellations over a period like "aquarius", even non-zodiac in cases. The greatest stupidity of astrology. Even the fundament is an error.
