A Curious case of Astrology: Is it Scientific or not?

Sceptics say Astrology is pseudoscience, while Astrology believers say that Astrology is true.

Who is correct among both?

While Sceptics are very correct when you consider that among 4 fundamental forces in nature, there isn’t any force which can explain the mechanism behind how Celestial bodies could influence humans which is very much TRUE.

So, is Astrology really pseudoscience with no any Scientific explanation behind it?

Sceptics arguments seems to have a winning edge over Astrologers and Astrology believers here.

But, still Sceptics aren’t entirely correct nor wrong. Consider the following points:

1. There are studies which suggests that the role of revolving planets and planetary alignments for orchestrating Solar activity (Sunspots formation) via orbital resonance.
2. Now Geomagnetism is linked to Solar cycle where the Earth is constantly bombarded by Solar wind which is also responsible for Aurora Borealis and Asutralis (colourful light display in the sky), which occurs at northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere.
3. Organisms are sensitive to fluctuations in Geomagnetic field fluctuations including humans where magneto-reception is an ability of an organism to navigate with the help of Geomagnetic field.
4. Scientists have discovered a magnetic particles in human brain regions — Cerebrum, Cerebellum, Brain stem.
5. Organisms like migratory birds navigate with the help of cryptochromes present in their eyes and with the help of Geomagnetic field.
6. There is a study which suggests that Geomagnetic field conditions plays a role in development of foetus.

Thus, we see there is a fool-proof evidence which suggests that there is an evidence on Astronomical or Astrophysical, Geophysical and Biological level that living organisms are exposed and influenced by the surrounding environment where Magnetism is the binding invisible force influencing many species on Earth, which is influenced by Solar activity and there is an intricate link between planetary movements and Solar activity where the role of planetary resonance is said to play behind the orchestration of solar activity.

Until here Astrology is Scientific, but this doesn’t give any basis to Astrological predictions.

But some of the Astrological phenomenon can be explained though still doubtful if possible to explain through Scientific lens.
