Humanity has been making astrological observations since before recorded time. Astrology and Astronomy were one science for most of human history. When we discovered the Solar System, and learned that the Sun is the center of the universe, rather than the Earth, Astrology and Astronomy split into two separate sciences. Astrology looks at the sky from an Earthly perspective. It does not believe that the Earth is the center of the solar system, but it is only interested in looking at the sky from specific locations on Earth. Since Astronomy no longer is interested in looking at the sky from the perspective of the Earth as the center, these fields are no longer compatible.
The loss that Astrology incurred from this split is the diminution of its importance. Today, Astrology is not well understood by the general public, and is often belittled as unimportant or superstitious. In fact, Astrology contains many important and useful observations about human nature and behavior that have been handed down for thousands of years.
Popular Astrology deals with one major astrological position - the Sun. The position of the Sun in a person's natal astrological chart is indeed an important indicator of their personality, but it by no means shows us a complete picture of the subject. Most people know what their "sign" is, and may look up their horoscopes for fun. People with strong Sun positions in their chart who don't have other contraindicative planetary positions may find that the popular descriptions of their "sign" fits them very well. Others will only be able to relate to a portion of the description. Most people will think of this as the beginning and end of Astrology.
Astrology is a rich and complex science that centers around the analysis of a person's natal chart (also called a birth chart). This chart is calculated from the exact location and time of birth, and includes hundreds of pieces of information about the person. Some of these pieces of information will be very significant and central to the personality, and others will be less important, although they also show us something.
