You Don’t Really Believe in Astrology, Do You?

Asheville Friends of Astrology will meet virtually on Friday, September 15 at 7 pm to hear Diotima Mantineia talk about astrology and its validity. You Don’t Really Believe in Astrology, Do You? is a question many of us have heard. We are told that science has “disproven” astrology. In fact, that is not the case. We’ll look at why the experiments that have been conducted mostly have serious problems when investigated closely, as well as the valid astronomy of astrology, why there is not, and never will be, a 13th sign, and how to respond to skeptics. We’ll also consider world views that break through the walls of strict materialism into a world where astrology can be approached in a different context. YOU MUST REGISTER USING THE LINK BELOW. YOU WILL NOT BE REGISTERED IF YOU SIMPLY RSVP WITH MEETUP.

Diotima Mantineia began studying astrology with Zoltan Mason in 1969 and has been practicing professionally since 1990. She is the author of Touch the Earth, Kiss the Sky: Allowing the Rational Mind to Welcome Magic and Spirituality and co-author of Aries Witch: Unlock the Magic of Your Sun Sign. Her passion for science led her to a degree in soil and crop science as well as graduate work in the field.
