If Vox is against astrology than I must be for it!?!

I agree that 99.99% of the astrologers out there are wacko-nut-jobs but consider that Sir Issac Newton was an astrologer and few people who have walked this earth were/are smarter than Sir Issac or have a better appreciation of cause and effect. Kepler, Copernicus, Galileo, all made money and financed their research from astrologically related studies.

We know that the Farmer’s Almanac is relatively accurate yet it is based upon the effects of the moon and other planetary bodies. Gravitational effects of the moon and planetary bodies can push and pull on our atmosphere and is a scientific reality. Changes in the atmosphere by consequence effects our weather. We are effected by the weather. None of this proves Astrology and it does not give credibility to all the flaky astrologers but on a strictly theoretical level we are influenced by our environment and the weather and seasons are part of that environment.

All in all I find Sir Issac Newton to be more credible than some libtard from Vox...

He was a man of is times. I don't fault him for belief in things we now know to be pseudosciences (astrology, alchemy, creationism, etc.), but that doesn't lend credence to such superstitions.
