With The Radical Virgo on occasional post status, I’ll be digging into my files to finish and share a number of articles and goodies from my Round Tuit folder. Here’s one of them.  While I usually do Quotes for the Signs, I find these Quotes about Astrology to be inspiring, reflecting how many well-known voices speak out in support of Looking Up for guidance. These quotes are handy reference points when talking with people who are new to astrology or skeptical about it. ~ Joyce

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

Astrology is like a weather report; it tells you what conditions you're likely to face in the future. If the weatherman says it's probably going to rain, you bring an umbrella. If you follow that advice, you won't get wet. ~Lee Goldberg, Mr. Monk and the Blue Flu

An Astronomer who denies Astrology, is like a butcher who recognizes the brain but is unaware of its transmission of waves. ~Ahmed Hulusi, From Friend to Friend
