There I said correlating so it would sound sciencey.

Would have to agree that Homeopathy IS a very dubious "science", Numerology??...for me the jury is still out...I get haunted by numbers and significant things do have an annoying tendancy to happen on certain number days...much to my disgust and attempts to 'short circuit it'
Astrology (as I have mentioned) is a useful tool to get a very BROAD view of what is infront of you (in regards to persons)..basically it is like saying that Adrian is from England...it does fit and use the many archetypes that can be found in the human psyche and thus it's appeal. Will agree that planning ones life AROUND such a methodology is boardering on religious fervour. It is amusing that some form of astrology can be found anywhere on the planet. I have also had a Natal chart done and it's only value has been to alert me to health issues and supply information on 'Solar influences' ....interesting document and it is fun to think I have a star chart for the time and date of my birth..... but not somehting that, again, I would slavishly base my whole life on.
Perhaps I'm just a frustrated Astrophysicist??
