Ancient astrology handed down to the present day in many ways seems illogical, but there are those in the modern filed of science who are beginning to rethink their bias and now seem to be leaning toward a belief based upon concrete facts.
It was viewed in the eyes of the ancient Egyptians, according to Proctor, that the people of that day viewed their king as the representative of all the people, and hence as a mediator between them and the gods.
On the theory that what was good for the king was good for the country, Proctor suggested that the Egyptians made no move in either domestic or foreign policy without the recommendation of their astrologer priests, whose opinions were based on the movement of heavenly bodies.
There seems to be a scientific consideration pointed out by Michel Gauquelin, as pointed out in his book “the Scientific Basis for Astrology, wherein he makes note of the effects of sun and moon on the terrestrial phenomena but also most interestingly the eleven year cycle of sun spots on the flora fauna, and inhabitants.
The sun, from time to time, develops sun spots that appear on the face of the sun which develop and then disappear. As they do the sun develops enormous storms of incandescent clouds which whip up huge magnetic whirlwinds
According to Gauquelin, the sun rotates on it’s axis every twenty-seven days, and as it does it aims these spots and eruptions at the earth. Gauquelin, points out ” it is like we terrestrials can regard ourselves as living in the sun,” as the increased projections and particles bombard the planet.
It has been measured that sunspot activity can affect the level of water in the lakes, the concentric rings taken by the Hudson bay Company, icebergs in the North Atlantic. It is most likely that the enormous fears of global warming based on the release of great quantities of carbon is actually caused by sun spots.
