EXPLANATION:

• The study of celestial bodies' motions and relative locations as they relate to human affairs and the natural world is called astrology.
• a person who use astrology to reveal information about their personality or to forecast their future is called astrologer.
• The scientific community has dismissed astrology as having no explanatory capability for describing the cosmos. Astrology has not been shown useful in controlled research and lacks scientific validity, hence it is classified as pseudoscience.
• Scientists has discovered no evidence to back either the premises or alleged consequences of astrological traditions.
• It has been proven that astrology makes falsifiable predictions.
• The annual publication La Connoissance des temps began a firm rejection of astrology in works of astronomy in 1679. Unlike in the west, Iran's refusal of heliocentrism continued until the turn of the twentieth century, owing to concerns that it would jeopardise the country's strong trust in astrology and Islamic cosmology.
• Astrology has been chastised for failing to establish a physical mechanism linking celestial body motions to their alleged impacts on human behaviour.
