The New Zodiac - Astrology vs Astronomy
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
It's 5:07pm on the 10th February, and a child is being born in central London. According to astrology he's born under the star sign Aquarius, he will be innovative, sociable, and unconventional. But we can reveal that the method that Western astrologers use to calculate our star signs is flawed. This programme will show that we are all reading the wrong star signs, we unveil the truth about astrology and "The New Zodiac". For centuries astrologers have believed that we are all intimately linked with the heavens, the exact position of the planets and stars act as a celestial mirror which reflects our personality, and our destiny. Astrologers base their predictions on the movements of the sun, the moon, and the planets as seen from Earth. As they move these heavenly bodies cross in front of 12 groups of stars called constellations. The ancient Greeks thought that these constellations look like figures, a crab, some twins, even a bull. This journey through the 12 constellations inspired astrologers to divide the sky into 12 equal segments, each representing a month. We know these constellations as the 12 signs of the zodiac. This 2001 documentary was produced by Pioneer Productions for Channel 5. Featuring contributions from astrologers Russell Grant and Roy Gillett, interviews with astronomer Dr Francisco Diego (University College London), psychologist Dr Chris French (Goldsmiths College), and media sceptic Tony Youens.

I can understand one thing- Vedic system is the greatest system and vedic people who knew this are the greatest
-
I wonder what the astronomers signs were. lol
-
I can see clearly that Mars is in Uranus.
-
Vedic Astrology says sign for you is were the moon in zodiac sign .In you Horoscope Moon in Cancer you sign is Cancer
-
I say redo the whole thing using VEDIC astrology....its so accurate it's scary!
-
WAITWAITWAIT so you're telling me that when you MOVE TO A DIFFERENT PLACE IN SPACE the constellation DOESN'T LOOK THE SAME ANYMORE?!!?!?!?1? :O;O:O;O;O:O: ASTROLOGY DISPROVED 1000OO0O0%!!!!!! :;O:O

This video is bullshit and lies. Western astrology is NOT based on the constellations, but the Tropical, or seasonal signs derived by Ptolemy 2000 years ago, and these signs are NOT affected by Precession. For someone calling themselves "Naked Science" you should be ashamed of yourself - you have not researched your facts at all.

One third of the population actually believe in that astrology shit; fucking hell! There are so many dumb idiots about.
-
P. T. Barnham knew the score.! LOL.
-
its true most astrologist are greedy predators and themselves don't know the right predictive techniques and this brings bad name to this knowledge, Also most people have weird expectations from astrology ,, this also confuse and taint the knowledge of astrology
-
actually unless ascendant is found by exact time and location and all important solar system bodies put into this map,, there is no horoscope these arid scientists have no idea how radix come into being and precession of equinox is perfectly explainable in astrology,, and i for my part has seen secondary directions of planets coupled with transits work in such a miraculous way that no garble of these scientist can change my faith in astrology,, since astrology is occult science , it has its limit,, and plus we dont know the all directions of metaphysical force,, its suffice that true astrology work to a definite extent.

Also, no one is "an Aquarius" or "a Pisces", ect. You may have been born while the Sun was transiting through the zodiacal sign of Aquarius or Pisces but the sun is one part of a much larger picture that involves all the planets as well as other symbolic points such as the Rising sign or "Ascending Degree". All of these different elements and their dynamic is what we would call a horoscope -not just your sun sign. The idea of "Sun sign astrology" was a gimmik invented to sell newspapers back in the early 20th century. The amount of ignorance within the finger waving, smarter-than-thou science-enthusiast pseudo-skeptics is exactly like the moralizing religious zealots they claim to despise. It's quite hypocritical.

This is actually completely and totally false. The idea of Ophiuchus as a "hidden" zodiac sign was a based on a hoax that has been passed around for the past 20 years, popping up now and again in chain letters and spam and local TV news stations needing some fluff. Now it has it's own documentary! and by "science" LOL The idea of Precession, a sidereal zodiac and other constellations were not known to ancients is completely false. Ancients and modern astrologers (the educated, competent ones anyway) have always known about both zodiacs and used them in different ways. Ophiuchus was never part of any zodiac any more than Eriandus or Cetus was part of the zodiac. Period. End of story. It's telling that so-called skeptics would latch onto this idea to debunk astrology. Who is gullible and prone to confirmation bias again? Anyone, potentially.

western astrology doesn't work for allot of people as well as it works for others I personally don't like western since its based on astrology as the sky was 2000 Years ago lol

What a bunch of retarded imbeciles...just because something cannot be explained by science or translated by numbers doesn't mean its fake or unreal... Spiritism, reincarnation, Chakras, meditation, Karma, past lives and so on are REAL. ....your school of thought probably thinks Humans are the only & the most advanced species in the entire Multiverse ! Carl Jung, the father of Analytical psychology quoted: "We are born at a given moment in a given place & like vintage years of wine we have the qualities of the year & off the season in which we are born". Having said that i believe the system used can never be 100 % accurate as it is a language created by Humans to try to explain vibrational energies... Every Hospital or Police Dept knows that Full Moons are busy periods for people working in these areas.... also most people look at the Sun zodiac sign....only. We all have influence from other star signs(Rising,moon,etc..) . Why this documentary doesn't speak about the test that have been made by some scientists to prove that Gemini, Aries, Leo, Libra ,Sagittarius & Aquarius people are more extroverted than Cancer, Taurus,Virgo,Scorpio, Capricorn or Pieces ? These & other studies have been made so why on earth are they hiding the results ? This is just the top of the iceberg...the new age of Aquarius will reveal its Justice over the course of time...

Cosmology and by extention astronomy is based on reality which continues to improve as time goes on, astrology barely makes any real improvements and puts people into little boxes and guess predetermined personalities based on lookin at pictures in the sky and think the universe gives a shit about the petty lives of some primitive lifeforms that can barely get off their home world, and obsess over celebrity culture being controlled by a big secret society and ignoring blatant corruption by police and politicians, fighting phantom menaces and blaming bad weather on the supernatural, and thinking the earth is flat and space is fake.
