One of the best ways for finding clues as to how best we can find clues to the Nature of God, and thus clues to how we can improve our lives is to study astrology.

Astrology could be said to be Mankind's finest subject for study.

It is through Astrology that science emerged. It is, as you will see, a superb instrument that gives us clues into the Nature of All Things, or 'God'.

Hence there are many astrological clues in The Bible, notably the 'Three Wise Men' - the Magi - were Persian Astrologers, following the 'Star of David'. 

One of the most respected Astrologers living today, John Frawley, also points out that astrology is ultimately a means for revealing the Divine.

Astrology has been practiced by some of the world's greatest thinkers, notably Aristotle, Plato, Isaac Newton. Fine minds, of course, continue to be involved with it.

An excellent book that will give you as much of an introduction to Astrology that you will ever need is called The Fated Sky - Astrology in History by Benson Bobrick.

What is Astrology?

Astrology is simply the study of meaning of celestial bodies. That is, it is used to connect what is up above us in the sky with our experiences down here on Earth.

It is through this that we begin to enjoy astrology's main benefit, which is UNITY. That is, it demonstrates the direct non-causal link between the Universe and us and everything else.

At its lowest level it shows that we are at one with the Universe around us. But as you look into it further it helps unlock an insight into The Absolute, which is the Total Living Unity of all things and All Time, which many may called 'God.

As William Lilly (see picture above), an outstanding astrologer from the 17^th century, says, astrology is 'the heavenly knowledge of the stars, wherein the great and admirable works of the invisible and all-glorious God are so manifestly apparent'.

Everything is Done

Another fine lesson that astrology gives us is a simple message that is very close to my heart, not least because it is my own:

YOU DO NOT CREATE. CREATION HAPPENS TO YOU.

That is, our lives, our Existence and everything are ultimately out of our hands. 

Everything is done. 

Everything past, present and future exists now. And all things in Creation are part of the Whole.

Nothing is, nor ever will be out of place.

This lesson would be well learned by the people of the world today who believe they can get what they want, do what they want, have no sense of overall context, and thrive on greed and ego. 

These people are always at the root of the sadness and sorrow of mankind, and so would do well to reconsider their ways.

It is the man who has learned to accept that true living is to know that their individual self and that of The Whole are One.  Such insight takes away all ego.

As it is quoted in the Bible - John 19:11, Jesus says to Pilate: 'Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above.'

The Significance of 
Accurate Astrological Prediction

There is no form of prediction that is more accurate than astrological prediction - that is, when it's done in the right hands.

A true practitioner of astrology should know this all too well, because such a person will have predicted events accurately with specific timing and details.

But it is not the 'glory' of the prediction that touches the true astrologer.

It is the SIGNIFICANCE of the fact that things can be predicted.

It is the fact that if something is meant to be, as shown by an astrological chart, it cannot be changed.

It will be what it is.

You cannot reach out and change the positions of the planets. They will go where they go, and their meaning is directly related to us here on Earth.

And thus Existence unfolds on Earth in a way that is completely out of our hands.

Accept this main lesson of astrology and you will begin to understand the Nature of Things. You will begin better to feel, flow with, understand the Nature of 'God'.

And so, you will begin to know yourself in your fullest and most wonderful state.

Of course, such a lesson is not easy to grasp, especially after Man has for centuries deluded himself into thinking that his will is king. But, I assure you, you will learn this lesson one day, perhaps not through astrology, but learn it you will. And perhaps not too soon.

And then you will see that you can play a part, but that your lines are already written.

Having said that, since you are TRULY at One (i.e. your real true self is Absolute Unity), you 'wrote the lines Yourself.

Begin to know this and you will see the Whole and how good it is, and that knowing it does not preclude a fruitful, fulfilled and happy life.
