What I've come to understand is that if something doesn't resonate with you it can just be tossed aside, that message was for someone else. But your Big Three can be read interchangeably, and if you found one thing more relatable than the others, maybe that's where your focus should be. None of this really matters or means anything independent from you, you decide what to do with it, and you get back whatever you put in.

Do you mean that it's basically a tool for introspection/self-discovery? Where does the function of the constellations etc. come in, what is the difference with a randomly generated message?

Let the Dawkins guide you.

It won't make your life better to know.

You know, that's something I wish people would say more often. I hate it when I get involuntarily stuffed with the kind of knowledge that makes life just a bit less good without any useful purpose

That's how I view it - there certainly are people that take it very literally. I'm not deep enough in to know about all the ruling houses and planets being in retrograde or whatever the fuck and my only frame for reference when it comes to constellations is greek mythology lol. That's all beyond me, but if you were to see a practicing astrologist (yeah they exist in hoards in the San Francisco Bay, it's a legit career path) they would have a lot to say about your question.

I think the underlying point to be made about whether it's all nonsense is that we are made of stardust and the alignment of the planets do affect the physical world in measurable ways, so why would they not also affect us?

I think a more intelligent nonsense point would be that the conditions of our mother's womb affects our development and since seasons change and food scarcity, extreme temperatures, and any number of other variables can affect our pregnant mothers seasonally it's possible that predictions based on those cycles could be somehow valid. This stardust **** is dumb af though.
