Expert summary
Astrology can be defined as the study of the positions of celestial bodies and their influences on human action and destiny. It dates back to the third millennium BC. Until the modern ages astronomy and astrology were interchangeable. Gradually astronomy developed as a scientific study and astrology came to be regarded as a mere belief system or a tradition. Modern astrologers consider astrology as a symbolic language, a form of divination and even as a form of art. In astrology, the positions of celestial bodies are used to predict the future. Scientists often regard astrology as pseudoscience or as superstition. However, a large number of people regard it a scientific study even today.
