Determinism Within The Practice Of Astrology Page 2

Please read this first.

A central tenet of astrology is that something is written at the moment of a birth or a moment in

time and place and some component of this moment has a bearing on the future. In this survey,

this component, which astrology explores via horoscopes, is labelled the “fate” of a person’s life

or the “fate” contained in a moment in time.

It is often assumed by non-astrologers that astrologers believe that one’s entire life and life

decisions are dictated by the “stars”, yet no one has actually asked astrologers about their ideas

on fate, destiny and freewill. Thus your answers are important as they will go towards building a

concept of fate (or determinism) as used in 21

century western astrology.

Therefore I thank you in advance for your contribution to this project. Your answers will be stored

in a database and analysed, along with the answers of astrologers from all over the world, to

help create this overall picture. The results will then form a part of my doctoral thesis.

Please be assured no information will be stored in the database which could identify you.

This survey should take you about 15 - 20 minutes.

If you wish me to email you back your personal determinism report then please

clearly print your email address.
