There's no evidence for astrology. In fact, there's many, many random controlled trials, double-boned studies that show not only is it... It's almost counter to the evidence. Like, And they say that a monkey can throw a dart at a stock chart and get โ do better than most hedge fund managers or something like that. Actually, astrologers are even worse.

And it almost divides โ they were fascinated with the number 60. So that was the base of their number system. Our number system is 10 because we have 10 figures. For some reason, they love base 60. I don't know why. And so they love things that divide it evenly into it. 10 does. But anyway, hashtag fail for the Babylonians. But they divided it up into 12 zones. 12 zodiac signs.

So you do know what you are, but you don't know why you are. So Libra means it's a constellation. There's 88 constellations. that are accepted by astronomers. And one of them is Libra. And the path that the sun and the moon and all the planets travel in is called the zodiac.
