Astrology and Psychology & relation between both || Suresh Shrimali



Astrology and Psychology



I am going to talk about a very different concept , the Relationship between Astrology and Psychology. 





WHAT IS PSYCHOLOGY 



Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behavior. Psychology is a multifaceted discipline and includes many sub-fields of study such areas as human development, sports, health, clinical, social behavior and cognitive processes. 



Psychology is really a very new science, with most advances happening over the past 150 years or so. However, it's origins can be traced back to ancient Greece, 400 – 500 years BC. The emphasis was a philosophical one, with great thinkers such as Socrates influencing Plato, who in turn influenced Aristotle. 





WHAT IS ASTROLOGY 



As we all know Astrology is the study of the movements and relative positions of celestial objects as a means for divining information about human affairs and terrestrial events. Astrology has been dated to at least the 2nd millennium BCE, and has its roots in calendrical systems used to predict seasonal shifts and to interpret celestial cycles as signs of divine communications. 





RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BOTH 



The Swiss Psychologist and former Freud disciple Carl Gustav Jung was interested in the understanding the relationship between psychology and astrology 



Many well known astrologers that have contributed to the development of astrology. Astrology is not necessarily only an art and science to predict the future, but also a tool for the evolution of consciousness. 



Psychological and evolutionary astrology aim at understanding the purpose of each event in furthering our growth. The key is awareness and a meditative attitude, and the purpose is to unfold our potential. 



Jung, states in his book Psychological Types: The individual disposition is already a factor in childhood; it is innate, and not acquired in the course of life. 



According to Liz Greene, a Jungian psychotherapist and astrologer astrology can help to discover the nature of this innate seed. Astrology can not only tell us about the self we know, but also about the one we do not know. Astrology will help us to know ourselves better and come to a more complete understanding of our true nature. Jung's Analytical Psychology attempts something very similar: individuation and arrival at one's true self. 



In the next series I am going to take you more deep in the world of Psychology and Astrology.
