Astrology can be described as a pseudoscience, which claims to reveal details about human affairs as well as terrestrial events through studying the motions and relative the positions that celestial objects. Astrology dates back up to the second millennium BCE and is rooted in the calendrical system which were developed to predict seasonal shifts as well as to interpret celestial cycles as signals of divine communication. Different cultures have given importance to astronomical phenomena, and some, such as those of Hindus, Chinese, and Maya developed elaborate methods for predicting events on earth based on observations of celestial objects. Western astrology, among the oldest astrological methods still being used, can trace its origins to the 19th-17th century BCE Mesopotamia and from there it expanded across Ancient Greece, Rome, the Arab world and then Central as well as Western Europe. The present Western Astrology is typically linked to horoscope systems that claim to provide insight into aspects of one's personality and to predict important things that will happen in their lives in accordance with the position of celestial bodies; the majority of professional astrologers depend on these systems.
Through the majority of its time the astrology practice was seen as an academic discipline and was prevalent in the academic world, usually closely linked to meteorology, alchemy, astronomy and medical. It was also a part of circles of power and appears in a variety of literary works including Dante Alighieri and Geoffrey Chaucer to William Shakespeare, Lope de Vega as well as Calderon de la Barca. After the close in the late 19th century, and the widespread acceptance of scientific methods, researchers have challenging astrology on scientific and theoretical grounds and have proved that they be devoid of scientific credibility or ability to explain. Astrology therefore has lost its academic and theoretic status, and the beliefs in the subject have decreased, before regaining its popularity beginning during the 60s.

Astrology dates back as early as the 2nd millennium BCE and has its origins in the calendrical system that were used to predict seasonal changes and to interpret celestial patterns as signals of divine messages. Astrology was practiced during the first Dynasty in Mesopotamia (1950-1651 BCE). Vedanga Jyotisa is one of the oldest known Hindu texts regarding the astrology and astronomy (Jyotisha). The text was dated from 1400 BCE to the final centuries BCE by different scholars, based on astronomical as well as language evidences. Chinese astrology developed in the Zhou dynasty (1046-256 BCE). Hellenistic astrology following 332 BCE blended Babylonian Astrology along with Egyptian Decanic astrology in Alexandria and created the horoscopic theology of astrology. Alexander the Great's victory over Asia enabled astrology to extend into Ancient Greece in Ancient Greece and Rome. In Rome it was believed that astrology was connected as "Chaldean wisdom". Following the conquer of Alexandria in the 7th century, astrology became adopted by Islamic scholars in addition, Hellenistic text was translated to Arabic as well as Persian. By the end of the 12th century Arabic documents were brought into Europe and then translated into Latin. Astronomers of the major leagues, such as Tycho Brahe Johannes Kepler and Galileo worked as court Astrologers. Astrological references are found in the poems of poets like Dante Alighieri and Geoffrey Chaucer and playwrights, such as Christopher Marlowe and William Shakespeare.

For the most part of its existence the astrology field was regarded as an academic tradition. It was accepted by the political and academic circles and was associated with other disciplines, like meteorology, alchemy, astronomy and even medicine. In the late 17th century, the development of new discoveries in physics and astronomy (such such as heliocentrism as well as Newtonian mechanics) put astrology in doubt. Astrology was then devalued in status as a theoretical and academic discipline and popular belief in astrology is largely diminished.
