Astrology is a tool we use to plan events according to the placements of the Sun, the Moon and the planets in the 12 signs of the zodiac. In astrology the planetary movements do not cause events; rather, they explain the path, or “flow,” that events tend to follow. Astronomy is the study of the actual placement of the known planets and constellations. (The placements of the planets in the signs of the zodiac is not same astrologically and astronomically.)
