Just because astronomy and astrology weren't  separated in the past does not mean astrology should be supported today. Solstices, equinoxes and the transits of planets are all astronomical phenomena. Alchemy was once considered a science long before chemistry came into existence. The modern version of alchemy is big bang and stellar nucleosynthesis / nuclear transmutation supported by a solid scientific foundation.

In addition to Matt's point angel since you've done your homework you understand that astronomy today is called astrophysics. Astrologers although using celestial bodies to make certain predictions may not consider elliptical orbits of planets and the various gravitational pulls of each individual planet.

Do you understand how detail this stuff is? Astronomy is not just about planetary alignments is about planetary measurement of mass, temperature, gravity and environment. Astronomers and astrophysicist make certain calculations on planetary "behavior" based on these things astrologers don't. Astrologers mostly focus on a planet or several planets based on a persons birth chart.

planets change all the time based on their position to the sun so even if I were to consider astrology how can an astrologer make a correct analysis of behavior if they don't consider all the elements (internal planetary temperature, mass etc)? So no astrology is not astronomy

Dude, a more serious problem is that many consider numerology to be an important science and even study it. My friend recently surfed the Internet and came across one site about numerology and he became crazy
