Is Astrology Cosidered as A Science?
Astrology is literally defined as an art of predicting or determining the influence of planets and stars on human affair, while science is a systematized body of knowledge based on facts. In this statement Astrology is just a prediction and prediction tells about a guess that may or may not happen in the future, while science is body of knowledge based on "facts" and when we say "facts" it is true, reliable and sometimes contradicts with the word "prediction". The Astronomers stated that Astrology pretends to be a science and it is also called "pseudoscience" which is the prefix "pseudo" means "false". It is a set of beliefs that appears to be based on Scientific Idea but it fails to obey the basic Rules of Science. When we say science, it is broad and engage processes in order to be proven and it will took a long time in order to be proven and sometimes fail to be proved. While astrology is just a prediction which is determined by the movements and formation of constellation of stars. Although it reflects truthfully on some human's life, but still it fails to obey the "basic rules of Science".
