ALBERT EINSTEIN ON THE SCIENCE OF ASTROLOGY |
ALBERT EINSTEIN ON THE SCIENCE OF ASTROLOGY
[ Subject: Albert Einstein on Astrology
[ From: Dr. Jai Maharaj
[ Date: July 8, 2002
[
[ "Astrology is a science in itself and contains an
[ illuminating body of knowledge. It taught me many things
[ and I am greatly indebted to it. Geophysical evidence
[ reveals the power of the stars and planets in relation to
[ the terrestrial. In turn, astrology reinforces this power
[ to some extent. This is why astrology is like a life
[ giving elixir to mankind."

[ Aphorisms," Covici Friede, New York, 1931.

[> Ahem...lurker here.
[> Jai didn't make up the book--I have my copy right in front
[> of me, a batter old thing 109 pages long, published in
[> 1931, which is probably why it's both out of print, and the
[> company out of business (not all businesses folded right
[> away after the Crash of `29, some did a few years later).
[> The book's full title is: COSMIC RELIGION: WITH OTHER
[> OPINIONS AND APHORISMS.
[> Here's a quote from this book (the chapter titled "On
[> Science," pp. 97-98):
[>
[> "I believe in intuition and inspiration...[ellipse
[> Einstein's] At times I feel certain I am right while not
[> knowing the reason. When the eclipse of 1919 confirmed my
[> intuition, I was not in the least surprised. In fact, I
[> would have been astonished had it turned out otherwise.
[> Imagination is more important than knowledge. For
[> knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the
[> entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to
[> evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in
[> scientific research.
[>
[> "THE BASIS OF ALL SCIENTIFIC WORK IS THE CONVICTION THAT
[> THE WORLD IS AN ORDERED AND COMPREHENSIVE ENTITY, WHICH IS
[> A RELIGIOUS SENTIMENT. MY RELIGIOUS FEELING IS A HUMBLE
[> AMAZEMENT AT THE ORDER REVEALED IN THE SMALL PATCH OF
[> REALITY TO WHICH OUR FEEBLE INTELLIGENCE IS EQUAL."
[> [emphasis mine]
[>
[> This book also contains Einstein's musings about the Jews,
[> especially in a chapter called "The Jewish Homeland," as
[> well as his thoughts on pacifism. In addition, there is
[> "An Appreciation" by George Bernard Shaw, the text of which
[> is actually "from an address delivered at the dinner for
[> Professor Einstein in London, October 27, 1930," footnote
[> at the bottom of p. 31.
[>
[> You cynics out there may dismiss Einstein's words, but the
[> fact is that this book is real (albeit hard to find); it
[> was written by Albert Einstein (yes, *that* Albert
[> Einstein, the father of Relativity) and published by
[> Covici-Friede in New York, in 1931.
[>
[> And Paul [Schlyter]: You owe Jai and every astrologer you've
[> so smugly maligned, an apology. Not that I'm holding my
[> breath...

Hey Jay - the major crackpot award in 1995 and you haven't
changed a whit in nine years - no wit, either - universally
reviled and disparaged wherever you troll. Isn't having your own

Top posting:-) http://www.astrology.ca/library/jasmine/quotes.html
A physician without a knowledge of astrology has no right to call
himself a physician ... There is one common flow, one common
breathing, all things are in sympathy.
- Hippocrates, Fifth Century B.C.
Astrology is assured of recognition from psychology, without further
restrictions, because astrology represents the summation of all the
psychological knowledge of antiquity.
- C.G. Jung
A most unfailing experience ... of the excitement of sublunary (that
is, human) natures by the conjunctions and aspects of the planets has
instructed and compelled my unwilling belief.
- Johann Kepler, Larousse Encyclopedia Astrology.
It is clearly evident that most events of a widespread nature draw
their causes from the enveloping heavens.
- Claudius Ptolemy, Tetrabiblos
The celestial bodies are the cause of all that takes place in the
sublunar world.
- Thomas Aquinas
A touchstone to determine the actual worth of an "intellectual", find
out how he feels about astrology.
- Robert Heinlein
The cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are still parts. The sun
is a great heart whose tremors run through our smallest veins. The
moon is a great nerve-center from which we quiver forever. Who knows
the power that Saturn has over us, or Venus? But it is a vital power,
rippling exquisitely through us all the time.
- D. H. Lawrence, Apocalypse
The controls of life are structured as forms and nuclear arrangements,
in a relation with the motions of the universe.
- Louis Pasteur
Courteous Reader, Astrology is one of the most ancient Sciences, held
in high esteem of old, by the Wise and the Great. Formerly, no Prince
would make War or Peace, nor any General fight in Battle, in short, no
important affair was undertaken without first consulting an
Astrologer.
- Benjamin Franklin
It's common knowledge that a large percentage of Wall Street brokers
use astrology.
- Donald Regan
That we can now think of no mechanism for astrology is relevant but
unconvincing. No mechanism was known, for example, for continental
drift when it was proposed by Wegener. Nevertheless, we see that
Wegener was right, and those who objected on the grounds of
unavailable mechanism were wrong.
- Carl Sagan
The question of all questions for humanity, the problem which lies
behind all others and is more interesting than any of them, is that of
the determination of man's place in nature and his relation to the
cosmos.
- T.H. Huxley
Men should take their knowledge from the Sun, the Moon and the Stars.
- Emerson
Millionaires don't have astrologers, billionaires do.
- J.P. Morgan (This is the correct quotation, according to Norman
Winski, curator and owner of the Evangeline Adams Library, who was
J.P. Morgan's Astrologer)
There shall be signs in the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars.

ALBERT EINSTEIN ON THE SCIENCE OF ASTROLOGY
[ Subject: Albert Einstein on Astrology
[ From: Dr. Jai Maharaj
[ Date: July 8, 2002
[
[ "Astrology is a science in itself and contains an
[ illuminating body of knowledge. It taught me many things
[ and I am greatly indebted to it. Geophysical evidence
[ reveals the power of the stars and planets in relation to
[ the terrestrial. In turn, astrology reinforces this power
[ to some extent. This is why astrology is like a life
[ giving elixir to mankind."

[ Aphorisms," Covici Friede, New York, 1931.

[> The book's full title is: COSMIC RELIGION: WITH OTHER
[> OPINIONS AND APHORISMS.
[> Here's a quote from this book (the chapter titled "On
[> Science," pp. 97-98):
[>
[> "I believe in intuition and inspiration...[ellipse
[> Einstein's] At times I feel certain I am right while not
[> knowing the reason. When the eclipse of 1919 confirmed my
[> intuition, I was not in the least surprised. In fact, I
[> would have been astonished had it turned out otherwise.
[> Imagination is more important than knowledge. For
[> knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the
[> entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to
[> evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in
[> scientific research.
[>
[> "THE BASIS OF ALL SCIENTIFIC WORK IS THE CONVICTION THAT
[> THE WORLD IS AN ORDERED AND COMPREHENSIVE ENTITY, WHICH IS
[> A RELIGIOUS SENTIMENT. MY RELIGIOUS FEELING IS A HUMBLE
[> AMAZEMENT AT THE ORDER REVEALED IN THE SMALL PATCH OF
[> REALITY TO WHICH OUR FEEBLE INTELLIGENCE IS EQUAL."
[> [emphasis mine]
[>
[> This book also contains Einstein's musings about the Jews,
[> especially in a chapter called "The Jewish Homeland," as
[> well as his thoughts on pacifism. In addition, there is
[> "An Appreciation" by George Bernard Shaw, the text of which
[> is actually "from an address delivered at the dinner for
[> Professor Einstein in London, October 27, 1930," footnote
[> at the bottom of p. 31.
[>
[> You cynics out there may dismiss Einstein's words, but the
[> fact is that this book is real (albeit hard to find); it
[> was written by Albert Einstein (yes, *that* Albert
[> Einstein, the father of Relativity) and published by
[> Covici-Friede in New York, in 1931.
[>
[> And Paul [Schlyter]: You owe Jai and every astrologer you've
[> so smugly maligned, an apology. Not that I'm holding my
[> breath...

'Pretend Dr'. Jai Maharaj (really Jay Stevens, Internet Spammer) wrote:
Good compilation.
Only fools and criminals believe in *****-trology. Which are you?
Let us examine critically just one of the quotations from this 'good
compilation'. I could easily demolish all of them, but this one is
modern, and particularly worthy of comment, since it comes from a
well-known opponent of pseudo-science and crackpottery in all its varied
guises:
That we can now think of no mechanism for astrology is relevant but
unconvincing. No mechanism was known, for example, for continental
drift when it was proposed by Wegener. Nevertheless, we see that
Wegener was right, and those who objected on the grounds of
unavailable mechanism were wrong.
- Carl Sagan
This is taken from "The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the
Dark". Sagan is relating how he declined to endorse a 'modest manifesto'
against astrology in the 70s because he was uncomfortable with the
wording, not because he thought astrology had any validity whatever. He
goes on to say:
"Many valid criticisms of astrology can be formulated in a few
sentences: for example, its acceptance of precession of the equinoxes in
announcing an 'Age of Aquarius' and its rejection of precession of the
equinoxes in casting horoscopes; its neglect of atmospheric refraction;
its list of supposedly significant celestial objects that is mainly
limited to naked eye objects known to Ptolemy in the second century, and
that ignores an enormous variety of new astronomical objects discovered
since (where is the astrology of near-Earth asteroids?); inconsistent
requirements for detailed information on the time as compared to the
latitude and longitude of birth; the failure of astrology to pass the
identical twin test; the major differences in horoscopes cast from the
same birth information by different astrologers; and the absence of
demonstrated correlation between horoscopes and such psychological
tests as the Minesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory."
