It sounds magical because there is no other method of grasping at it to ground it into what you are seeking which is purely rational explanation. It is not a ‘rational’ (by 21st cen def of rational) system. There are things in life that are bigger than our minds and it takes..

Frankly, small minded. Just because we cannot pinpoint the mechanics in our current technological/scientific/cultural understanding does not automatically deny the existence of those very mechanics at work. Some are just more attuned to interpreting and interacting with those

and I'm not saying we need to pinpoint the mechanics - I just want any plausible theory at all that we can then pursue testing. I don't mean I need to know how it works, I mean I need to know a path towards testing it and discovering more about how it works.

this all sounds like anybody could have made it up - could I then pick literally anything and then derive personality correlations from it, like the arrangement of rocks, as indicative of cosmic state at the time?

No, but, the thing that is important to note is again the difference in the age when astrology was developed. Those people they operated in a different state of relation with the world than we do now. I don’t think it was ‘making it up’ so much as receiving a deeper intelligence

The same way some indigenous tribes come to know how to utilize & make healing mixes of certain plants that would otherwise be deadly
