The Torah Says Astrology Is Real (Most People Miss This Verse)

So what's amazing about astrology is there's incredible amounts of information that's contained in the birth chart. So how does this work? So astrology is designed to help us grow. So first thing to know straight out in the Torah it says in the 14th Pik in the 14th verse in boracious that Hashem says he created the the luminaries the sun and the moon to separate between day and night. Okay. >> And his next word is they should be for signs. And Rashi is very clear that it's talking about astrology. >> Okay. >> So, right off the bat, Raag also goes into detail that it's talking about astrology. So, right off the bat, we have right away in the Torah that Hashem is the one who created astrology. The the luminaries, they should be for signs for people. They should. Now, the question becomes signs for what? What is the what is the purpose of it? What is what's the goal? We so we know Hashem created it, but what's the goal? So boracious rabba brings down that every blade of grass has an astrological energy urging it to grow. >> Right. Which it refers to as a mazle. >> Yes. Yes. >> What is this masle? And there must be billions of them cuz there are that many blades of grass. >> Right. So that each and that brings down the concept that the purpose of astrology is to help us grow. That's what these astrological energies Yes. >> Yes. Tells the blade of grass to grow. for every living thing creature even all the way down to a blade of grass but certainly for you >> all the way down to a blade of grass how much more so more complex being so that is its purpose to help us grow to reach our potential to fulfill our purpose that's what it's here to do >> and that's to me one of the most amazing things about astrology this is Hashem directing energy into our lives to help us grow to help us achieve our purpose >> okay let's break down what astrology is right. So astrology is the moment that you're born, Hashem takes all the energy of the solar system and implants it within the baby. It's it's a snapshot of that exact moment and all the energies of all the planets of the whole cosmos and the whole solar system into a person >> and you're here the baby now the baby doesn't know any of this, right? And he has a whole lifetime. >> There's a lot of things affecting a baby when they're born that they have no idea about. >> Yes. Forget about astrology. They're inheriting genetics, >> but this is setting out their entire lives. This is like a a seed, an apple seed that's being planted that's here to grow into a massive apple tree and produce bushels full of apples. Okay? >> That's what an astrological chart has all the energies, the unique abilities, the gifts, the struggles of everything. Again, let's make sure we're very clear to say this, but it cannot determine the exact way that that's going to express itself. I mean, based on what you told me, >> yes, it's going to you're going to have certain talents and gifts and certain and we're going to get into that exactly how that works. >> Potentials, can we call it? >> Yes, there's incredible potential, but you're here to do a purpose, right? So, it's not a specific thing, right? So, it's a general gifts that each person has and skill sets. Now it also comes >> so the specific way that it'll be channeled that's not determined. >> Correct. And certainly the moral character of it choosing right from wrong as you were talking about before. Correct. Yes. That's that's our work. That's that's the free will. There's a huge part of free will in involved. Now it's not complete free will. I would call it like partial free will. Right. There's a certain we don't have a choice who we're born to, who our parents are, right? There's a certain amount that we don't have a choice. Then what we do with it that's our free will. That's our free choice. Right? So, it's the same thing with the birth chart. There's going to be particular areas of gifts and skill sets, and that's what we're here to hone and develop and bring out in whatever way we choose and we see fit best for that. Okay. Okay. So, the birth chart is sort of like an outline of your potentials, which implies your gifts, but can you also detect deficiencies? >> Yes. And here's the thing. >> There's a story in your book, by the way. Yes. >> You you you have a lot of personal firsthand stories where you're you you do you do these charts for people. Yes. Yes. Okay. And by the way, if someone wanted to get a chart done >> Yes. They can go to my website kosherastro.com. >> kosherastro.com. Some old information there. >> So there was a story there about a couple that was dating. I just recall the the general idea that you detected some area that you knew based on their charts that was going to be a problem area. Not that they shouldn't get married, but that's going to be the challenge, >> right? So, so yes. So, so um this woman who was she was in her 40s and she was single and she she told me that she had dated somebody previously six months ago and it didn't end well. And now he contacted her. He wanted to he wanted to try again. And she was like, "No, I'm not going through that." So, I said, you know, let me look at the charts and see what's happening. And so in additionally to your chart, you can also compare two people's charts and see where the areas of connection, where the area of difficulty. I call it the couple's chart. >> What if people are already married? I mean, you do that when they're >> Yes. And it can be very helpful to understand why spouses feel differently, what areas to be sensitive of, what's there's a lot there's so much information that can be so incredibly helpful. >> You've seen it be helpful. >> Yes, we'll talk about it in terms of transit for schol and bias. Literally, some can literally save marriages. Yes. Yes. We'll go. >> By the way, I don't want to get off topic, but I saw that one story you told it was for a father and a son. >> Yes. >> My son here is producing the show, so maybe later. >> I know you did my chart. You'll have to pull up yuda. Uh >> yes. Let's see what the chart is. Um >> we'll find out if we're really compatible. I might have to replace you at all. I'm sorry. >> Okay. But yes, but but but getting back to >> we'll talk about she she wanted consider considering re >> right she she didn't want she she got burnt last time she >> look at his chart >> so she had his information she had his birthday she they dated for for a number of months they dated seriously for for a couple of months so she had his information and I looked at the chart and I and I showed her one particular area where there's a conflict in the chart and this is something I don't remember the specifics but this is something >> clearly Yeah, there's something that a certain thing about him like didn't fit well with her. Now, so I told her this is never going to change. However, however, if you can learn to accept it, you have many other connections that are really positive and really saw thatart. Yes. Yes. And I went through some of the other very positive ones. So, I'm saying look, don't try to So, I [laughter] said is focus on your strengths. >> Yeah. Right. So you know give them if you want give them a chance again understanding and see if you can learn to live with this area that's going to be different for you that's not going to be satisfying for you but with all these other positivities. So actually so she did a couple of months later she started dating again a couple of months later she got engaged they got married and she just now sent the invitation to the bar mitzvah of her son. Yes maztov literally 13 years ago when you say mazotov has a whole new meaning astrology. Yeah. So in this case it's a real masle tub that astrology helped to understand the differences right. So so and that's also cuz it also depersonalizes when you understand that somebody has a very different energy and he was born this way to be an Aries and he's and you're used to it's a little less offensive. >> Yes. It's nothing. It's not right. It's not meant to be mad at a guy cuz he's he has brown eyes. >> Right. That's just how it is. Yes. Yes. So now you have to learn to see can you live with it. date them to see if you can you know and once you do so this is a beautiful story that ended beautifully in this way. >> Wow. Okay. >> Yes. >> Okay. So that you have a snapshot a person is born under certain astrological conditions and I I'm assuming you know that the configuration of these constellations indicates would you say like the way the energy was entering the world at that moment or which energies how would you >> Yeah. Yeah. So this we're going to go through it. We're going to go through a chart. What that looks like literally think of it as a snapshot, a map of the heavens. Where was the sun? Where was Venus? Where was Mercury? Where was Uranus? How are they positioned in regards to each other? What zodiac sign were they all in? There's a lot more information. That's another big misconception. People think that we're only our sun sign. We're only a Gemini. That's the totality. That's the typical thing. I'm a Gemini, >> right? And that's so that's the tip of the iceberg. There's so much more information because it's not just your sun. There's a moon. Your emotions can be in a complete different sign and you're a great example of it. We're going to we're going to get Yes, we're going to go into it. But just one more point that I wanted to bring out. You talk about like >> the struggles. So here's the thing. >> Yeah. >> The struggles are part of your gift. They're a struggle because in childhood it's very hard if you have incredible powerful energy. For a child or teenager, it's very hard to absorb that energy and to understand how to properly utilize it. So that's where sometimes we can have some big struggles in our lives and difficulties, but they're not meant for struggles. They're meant to work through and then it grows into an incredible gift and superpower that you're able to then help heal the world in some way. >> You're saying that sometimes a person has certain potentials. They don't even know they have those potentials. And not only is it if you don't know you have a potential, you can't use it. But what you're saying is actually it's disruptive. It's like excess energetic clutter that is is causing them causing them confusion, pain. >> Yes. Yes. I see people who have incredibly struggle lives. I see they have Saturn and Pluto and all these difficult planets. >> But each one is an incredible superpower and you have to learn how to hone them properly. So these are actually the the the weakness and struggle is the key to your gifts and to your superpowers. So the more you understand [clears throat and cough] these components of your personality, the more you can choose, again, it's all free will to utilize them in ways that are productive. >> Yes. >> That's the premise. >> Yes. Yes. >> Okay. Okay. Very good. And I mean, who wouldn't want to do that, >> right? That's what I I like the minute cuz first of all, this whole idea is very fantastical. It's a very wow, there's all this information about me and my life. So, it's hard for people to believe that it's true. When I discovered it was true, that's why I it drove me crazy. Like, I had to write it. I had to tell the world. How could who wouldn't want to know all their gifts and struggles or the different timing in their life when they're here to really take the next leap and growth? I'm going to go through all that. All this information is available. Hashem provided. He I call it a love letter in the sky. That's what astrology is to me.
