(Épisode en anglais du Podcast AstroSpirit.fr)

In this episode, we explore how astrology, with its long historical and cultural heritage, finds its place in a modern society guided by scientific methods and a search for empirical evidence. We first delve into its origins, at a time when astronomy and astrology were inseparably linked, and then show how the scientific revolution gradually widened the gap between observing celestial bodies and interpreting them symbolically.

Drawing on recent studies, we shed light on the renewed interest in astrology—especially among younger adults—as a response to uncertainty and as a tool for self-reflection. Far from a deterministic model, contemporary astrology is often described as a “symbolic language” that invites us to question our motivations, fears, and aspirations, functioning rather like an archetypal narrative. We also discuss Jungian and humanistic approaches that view astrology as a means for introspection, rather than as a method for infallible prediction.

Finally, we consider how mobile apps and social media democratize access to astrology, while also raising concerns about oversimplification. This episode addresses the role of critical thinking: how can we remain lucid while embracing the symbolic and mysterious? You’ll find that astrology, approached as a poetic and mythic language, can coexist with scientific rationality and enrich our quest for meaning without seeking to replace the experimental approach. A fascinating exploration for anyone curious about the place of symbolic traditions in today’s world!
