subject: You're Belief in Astrology [print this page] 9) There has been a continuous dispute as to whether Astrology is a Science or not. Without dwelling at length on this topic, I would say that Astrology- though a perfect science can be ranked both as a science and as art. Some of the astrologers have called it as science of combinations. It is true that astrological combinations give the needed predictions but at the same time. Astrology has all the qualifications to be ranked as Science' i.e. principles, methodology and repetition. In standard ancient texts, astrological principle has been well laid down and they are valid and applicable till today. Here a mention of the few standard works would suffice: Brihat Prasahar horashastra. Brihat Jatak, Sarvarth Chintamani, Jatak Parijat and others.
