The Huber Method of Astrological Psychology

Astrology in Psychology?

Right, astrology is often disregarded and slated because of it's slightly arcane nature, but can it be useful in psychology to do basic analysis on people's traits and reactions? I myself have been interested in astrology since I was small because it was a simple way of trying to understand people. I've even done just basic research at home by looking around sites and even ordering full birth charts and comparing them - they were all conclusively similar in what they said. I also used what I learned about astrology on my friends by sourcing different websites and comparing what each birth chart said and also what my friends actually thought - and they were all intrigued by how accurate they seemed. I think that yes, astrology isn't a full-proof system that's ALWAYS accurate, but can it not be used to try understand the basic behaviours of people? For example, if you look at what people's behaviour is like under starsigns then you know that people of the sign Leo have a strong sense of pride and thus know that they won't admit to mistakes - you could take that into account in say, a work environment, and find a way to help them in their situation. Of course, as I said, it's not 100% accurate, but I myself think it's a useful way to at least try to understand a person's basic personality traits and adhere to them in order to help.
