Top 10 Don'ts in Astrology

[brainpuddle]

If I'm going to read someone's chart, I always put aside my personal biases and read it with complete purity.

Yikes. It would take a Leo to think they can just "put aside" their inherent personal biases and achieve "complete purity". lol

Don't try to convince a Capricorn the legitimacy of Astrology unless they are already open to it...

Broke this rule, and proud of it. Took him three years to come around, but he's now the best astrologer I know. : )

Do not take what you read in a book or has been taught to you in a course as the word of God.
Always try and verify.
One shall be open to new ideas and to the possibility that an appealing could idea simply not work.

Do not forget that we as humans have such thing as Free Will.

I never really understood how one can believe in astrology and free will simultaneously. Aren't they rather antithetical?

I do not agree with you, astrology never limits anyone's free will, you are missing something.

DO NOT AVOID

keeping in mind

that

the TIMING of
vast majority of natal charts
requires verification

because
times are recorded AFTER the event
and frequently are based on Memory
anecdotal evidence
as well as on human error
such as clocks being fast or slow

Actually, I am a Leo and an astrologer. Sometimes, one wants to respond or read a chart...interpret...but it is up to the astrologer to put the chart aside is they are tired, angry at something or someone; if it ''hits a sore spot'' or if the question is in the form of a confrontation or if one needs to look something up (as in an ephemeris) ---and the book or reference is not near....
it is VERY important to NOT begin to reply unless totally prepared. It isn't fair to the inquirer to give a rushed reading.

Astrology is a para-science based on guesses, estimates and theories of what could happen in our lives or in the next day to come, they aren't 100% accurate nor they can be taken literally, and you can't use astrology to determine whether the person you (or getting to) know is a "good" or "bad" person.

Here's one for a tired, angry, unprepared Sun Leo astrologer--

"After looking at this chart, all I can say is, 'Better luck next lifetime!'".

clearly
reliable delineation is dependent on reliable data
and so unless time of birth is reliable - delineation is not dependable
