History of Astrology (ASMR relaxing story and sleep aid for bedtime)

In this soft spoken ASMR bedtime story, I tell you about the History of Astrology: how it appeared as a discipline that was not formally separated from Astronomy across different cultures (Babylon, China, India, Egypt, Greece, the Islamic World, the Maya...), and how it evolved. Western Astrology with its zodiac signs, birth charts, horoscopes and individualized predictions is a tradition that began to form more than 2,000 years ago in the Eastern Mediterranean. Even though critiques to the practice are probably as ancient as Astrology itself (some Roman authors, Muslim scholars and various religious traditions were vocal about their rejection of it), Astrology survived its separation from Astronomy and even thrived in the West since the 20th Century.
