Astrology is a complex and multifaceted system that has been practiced for thousands of years. At its core, astrology is a belief system that posits that the position of celestial bodies at the time of a person's birth or an event can have a profound influence on their character and future. Astrology seeks to interpret these positions and their relationships to understand and predict human behavior and events, and is used by many as a tool for self-discovery and personal growth.
