Theory

Scientists believed that the underlying astrological theory has insufficient evidential support and is impossible. There is no force that may cause the celestial things to affect the life of human just what the astrologers claimed. Such force cannot work in a way that astrology is describing. This is due to the reason that astrology has been based on false understanding of the celestial bodies’ positions and sizes.

In astrology, the celestial bodies’ influence is less or more evenly spread among the very obvious heavenly objects that are visible in the naked eyes. When an object appeared brighter or it moved in the interesting fashion, this tends to catch more significance. People had learned that such objects perceived as nearer, bigger, more active or brighter are not actually necessary in some aspects of life.

Evidence

The astrologists claimed that astrology really works even if the scientists said that it cannot. The argument is focused on  the scientific knowledge that is incomplete. Scientists do not understand why or how astrology works.

But when the studies of the traits had been conducted, there is no correlation found. In terms of date, researches continued to state the personality traits that are randomly spread in the star signs.

One more astrological theory prediction is about the accomplished astrologer who should match persons with the birth charts. In order to test it, astrologers have been presented with series of random birth charts and test subjects. They were then asked to compare the subject into the chart. To date, there have been studies demonstrated the ability of doing this thing better compared to the random chance.

The test made for astrology as the scientific hypothesis may provide different impact among different people. The practicing astrologers need to get prepared in accepting this evidence. However, they are going to continue to explain with justification. Astrology has been  into many attacks from various critics and several concepts about it remained as a theory.

Some subsequent astrologers had modified, extended, and refined the doctrine of other scientists and critics. They even came up with guidelines regarding the proper way of interpreting celestial influences on some concerns, like marriages. Even religious reformers had also expressed how they view astrology in their personal perceptions.
