t’s a nice and clear night out. If you look up to the west you can see Venus sitting in the constellation of Taurus and if you look up to the south you can see the waxing moon sitting in the belly of the lion in Leo Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. Without all of the fancy technology you can star gaze and see the planets in action. It’s important to not neglect astronomy when you study astrology. Astronomy is the what and astrology is the why. 2 sides of the same coin. This is the difference between western and sidereal astrology. Sidereal Astrology reflects the night sky, western astrology does not. In ancient times our eyes and the sky is all we had.
