      Introduction

      Astrology, a timeless and intricate system of divination, has woven its influence through the fabric of human history. At its essence, astrology is the study of celestial bodies' positions and movements, and their potential influence on human affairs and natural events. As we embark on this journey of exploration, it is crucial to address skepticism and misconceptions that often cast a shadow over the profound insights astrology can offer.

      The roots of astrology trace back to ancient civilizations, where cultures sought to decipher the mysteries of the cosmos. From the Babylonians mapping the stars to the Greeks weaving tales of celestial gods, astrology has evolved into diverse traditions, including Western, Vedic, and Chinese astrology.
