I think that astrology has some interesting historical and cultural value. I see a lot of beauty in the texts and visual components. I cannot say I really believe much in it, though I must say that I have never really taken it seriously.
Everything considered, I place astrology in the same category as other such noble attempts at understanding the universe and ourselves, including alchemy, the Four Temperaments, and the Atkins diet.
