SOO many powerful/successful people know about astrology.

I actually was just watching this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bP4Jz2kUpes

and Tom Ford is just going on about how this guys is a proud Leo which was so amusing to me.
And He's absolutely right, that man reminds me of my Leo father.

Anyways.. I have NN capricorn in the 8th house so I think my knowledge of the occult is a great personal tool for success.
So some friends may snicker at me now but 8 years lets see who is laughing lol.

So a very good question now is how can one use astrology to their success? Besides relationships, I am kinda nauseated by that part of astrology :O

People consult astrologers for advice, this a very old concept.

Using transits and many tools really. It's very common in countries like India.

I mean i'm starting to consult astrology more for decision making and I noticed less mistakes.

Even smalls things seem to come out to my advantage.
What days to set up appointments etc.
Yeah It's more effort but its worth it imo.

I don't care too much about synastry...

I mean I can't control another human being, I probably could but that's no fun LOL...

But I can attempt to control my environment and my decision making.

Completely agree!! Most of my friends keep saying how " I will get burned badly in life" because I am relying on this astrology non sense. But like you said, we will see who is laughing in 10 years when I will use this wonderful tool towards my advantage in finding out who I am, what I need to do in this lifetime, and the kind of people I need to meet and avoid. Go astrology!

You can't really know if Tom Ford knows "about astrology". Sun signs are pretty common knowledge, especially with certain types of people (creative types) and especially Leos and Scorpios. Every seems to know the classic stereotype about them.

Of course there are/were "powerful"/"successful" people who use astrology. I guess Nancy Reagan is the one that everyone references. Was astrology used to run the US in the 80s?! Maybe.

If someone became very successful with the help of astrology I think it would be silly of them to share it with the public. The fewer people know the better.

I'm sooo happy! I mean, cappy.

YES!!! She was very strong in advising Ronald Reagan who has been said to be one of the greatest American Presidents of the century!

A lot of very successful people have great charts, so it doesn't really matter if they believe in astrology or not, does it?

No it wouldn't matter if the person believes in it or not. Whatever chart they are born with is going to manifest regardless. Although one's maturity and attitude towards their manifestation can certainly change things. Astrology is fate/destiny, but you also have free will.

I have quite a bad chart and it was because of some unexplainable bad times that I actually began believing in astrology. I never had a great life, but there was one stretch of a couple of years where everything fell apart BUT there was no logical reason for it falling apart! It was completely unexplainable by any logic. When I try to tell people some of the things that happened to me during this time they accuse me of lying and I don't blame them... The things that kept happening made NO sense! and yet they happened. The only thing that was able to explain this period in my life was astrology. I then learned how to interpret the dashas (vedic time periods)and transits and using this I am able to know in advance when an exceptionally bad time is coming up for me. I can prepare for it and come out of it ok. It doesn't save me from my bad chart, but it does save me from suffering more than I have to.

It's a known fact many powerful people are into the occult...
I never said you have to know about astrology, Obviously.
Maybe your're lucky or you could use other means, illegal means lol
Why you assume i meant that?
Even if you do have a poor chart you can still take advantage of many other tools astrology has to offer.. A lot of successful people have pretty crap charts

No I think Mr ford has some knowledge

Virgo sun conjunct Pluto, Nn conjunct Uranus.
if you knew about astrology you would know a Virgos won't mention things like that with out having sufficient amount of knowledge.
I get the feeling that he knows about his chart like most celebs.
Many of them have astrologers since they have the means to get their personalized monthly horoscope done.

Vedic Astrology (Sidereal) and your Vedic Chart is what you mainly use for Astrology?

Or do you only use Vedic (Sidereal) for predictions, and Tropical for personality?

Which chart do you relate more with? And do you use Vedic (Sidereal) when analyzing someone else's chart, or Tropical?

It's possible. I don't know. I don't know him.

All I'm saying is that lots of people talk about people's sun signs without knowing any more about it. Sun signs are quite common knowledge.
