Astrology
History of João Neves - Paraiba, Brasil
Astrology, despite having ancient connections with astronomy, is now considered a pseudoscience, as it lacks scientific foundation. The lack of statistical evidence for the causal relationship between horoscopes and events in human life leads to the view of the birth chart as a tool based on mystical beliefs, linking more to the individual perspective than to actual events. The practice of astrology also involves misinterpretations of scientific terms, which can promote ignorance and turn the public away from science. Furthermore, concepts such as the zodiac and vibration have no scientific support, and the physical or gravitational influence of distant celestial bodies is practically negligible. Thus, astrological claims cannot be explained scientifically.
