Astrology Revival

About 25 years ago, at the dawn of the personal computer age, I was desperately looking for advice on what type of computer system to buy. I knew nothing. Of all things, I found Matrix Software, an astrology software firm, gve the most practical advice. I started reading their publications and, soon, I became an admirer of their highly efficient staff although, being a materialistic engineer, I had trouble accepting astrology. But the astrologers were such an honest, helpful group that I followed their activies for a few years. Then I lost touch.

Recently, I read articles on astrology, and particularily, on the marriage of astrology and psychology which ignited in me a strong interest in astrology. It appears many astrologers are downplaying horoscopes and the prediction of the future (via reading the stars) and, instead, are turning the almost religious background of astrology into a tool for doing some great work. For example, it is amazing how astrology and psychology can complement one another in the treatment of persons passing though a difficult time.

I still have trouble accepting much in astrology theory but, if astrology works well with psychology, good for it.

So, with that, I open this blog on the revival of astrology.
