My theory on why astrology works ⭐︎
We are all connected to the cosmos and we can observe this connection through Astrology.
But why does something as brilliant as Astrology work?
I have a theory that may explain how we are all interconnected. It involves the nebular hypothesis!
A stellar nebula is a giant cloud of dust and gas particles, which eventually forms a solar system. The particles in this cloud are constantly moving due to the build-up of heat and pressure. They form a proto-star and the remaining particles clump together to slowly form the planets.
This means that our Sun and all the planets in the solar system come from the same source: the same stellar nebula.
The direction in which the particles move in the stellar nebula, is the same direction that the planets move in the (fully formed) solar system. So the direction of the movement of the planets is determined while they’re in the early stages of formation!
Once the proto-star is formed, the heat and solar winds sweep the lighter planets away, while the terrestrial planets stay closer to the sun. This forms the distinction between the inner and outer planets.

Therefore, the stellar nebula determines:
Material of the planets: everything in the solar system shares the same source.
Position of the planets: inner v/s outer planets.
Direction of movement of the planets: how they revolve around the Sun.
What happens in the stellar nebula determines things about the solar system that are a key component in astrology: the placement and movement of the planets!
As for humans…
We are made of 4 main elements: hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon. We have iron in our blood and calcium in our bones.
Hydrogen forms in the core of a star.
Distant stars (which are older and larger) form oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon. When these stars go supernova, the elements are ejected out into space and reach us! Iron and calcium reach us the same way from even bigger stars.
“The carbon in our cells, the oxygen in the air, the silicon in rocks, and just about every element, were all forged inside ancient stars before being strewn across the universe when the stars exploded.” - Carolyn Ruth
We may not know which star each atom in our body comes from, but we do know that we have an intimate bond with the Universe.
Not only are we deeply connected to everything in our solar system, we also share a profound connection with the stars that burn light-years away.
Astrology helps us understand this connection and truly embody what ‘as above so below’ means!
If we are literally made up of material that originated in distant stars (the same stars that form the constellations) then it’s not farfetched to believe that they impact us on some level. Even the movement of the planets in the solar system seems pre-determined by the events in the stellar nebula stage. It’s almost like a clock, one which may even send (energetic) ripples that impact our life. And that would make planetary influence almost like a force of nature (like gravity!)
