Why Astrology Works

When people ask "How do planets cause astrological phenomena?", I respond that planets do not cause astrological phenomena. The idea that matter is unconscious, yet is the cause and director of consciousness is magical thinking. 

With E=mc^2, Albert Einstein proved that matter is slowed-down energy. 

Quantum physics has also proven that particles (matter) and light waves (energy) are two states of the same thing and that our conscious attention literally causes waves to become particles. 

In addition, many people under hypnosis have been made to see right through solid objects.* With the hypnotic suggestion that the solid object does not exist, the object does not exist to the person. This is because our minds cause all things to exist. 

The planets are mind forms that are caused by our universal mind to reflect our many types of consciousness and individual states of being. This is how astrology works.
