Why study astrology?

A symbolic language

Even more than an art, astrology is a language. It gives symbolic keys to discern and express nuances in people's psyche. Astrology can be extraordinarily revealing when it comes to understanding yourself and others. In the light of an astrological chart, many attitudes and motivating forces in people suddenly take on a completely different dimension – the astrological interpretation brings meaning.

Self discovery

As a symbolic language, astrology is a powerful tool for self discovery. An essential part of the astrological endeavour is the study of one's own chart, in about every single possible modality, drawing type etc. Each way of drawing the astrological chart is like another mirror, an opportunity to reflect upon a particular facet of oneself.
Having conducted this study of yourself, it is more than likely that the views you hold about your essential nature will change, and that a new light will be shed on the reasons for a number of past choices and actions. New facets of yourself will be revealed, as well as powerful keys for self-transformation work.

Dante's Paradiso for instance, the part of the Divine Comedy in which Dante deals with the angelic hierarchies and the ladder of the spiritual worlds, is essentially a journey through the planetary spheres. It is replete with astrological symbolism. Whilst traveling through the sphere of the fixed stars and seeing the sign of Gemini, Dante, who was born under that sign, even attributes all of his genius to it:
