My favorite thing is that astrologers are working with a ‘zodiac’ of stars which is so old, the stars have changed position in the sky and their zodiacal charts aren’t even accurate if you just up.
Also IIRC there should be thirteen astrological signs but that number was unpopular so the charts were fudged to make them fit twelve. So they aren’t accurate for any age.
I mean… there is sidereal astrology, which does account for the precession of the equinoxes. And tropical astrology has explanations and justifications to be how it is. It’s not just “oh dumb astrologers don’t even know the stars changed!”. Like, their whole thing is looking at stars and stuff. They sure know it.

They look at stars the same way flat earthers look at the world around them.
That link doesn’t explain it at all, it’s like watching fundamental religious people argue about how the Bible actually makes sense and applies to today.
The link does explain it, and if you listened to fundamental Christians describe their beliefs, you’d understand them better. You don’t have to agree, but if you never have an open mind even to things you disagree with you will never understand them.

If you are actually interested or curious, here is a thread with explanations (it’s unfortunately on Reddit): https://www.reddit.com/r/astrology/comments/wr1iok/tropical_astrology_explanation/?sort=top
They just don’t care 🌚
Also, with how popular astrology now, I’d wager that more than half astrologists don’t know it and only care about some cargo cult attributes
