Etymology

The term 'astrologist' has its origins in the late Latin word 'astrologus,' which itself derives from the Greek word 'แผ€ฯƒฯ„ฯฮฟฮปฯŒฮณฮฟฯ‚' (astrologos), meaning 'star speaker' or 'one who speaks about the stars.' This reflects the ancient practice of astrology, where celestial bodies were thought to influence human lives and events on Earth. Astrology dates back to at least the 2nd millennium BC in Babylon, where it was developed into a systematic study. Over the centuries, various cultures, including the Greeks, Romans, and Arabs, contributed to the evolution of astrological thought, creating intricate systems of celestial interpretations. By the 20th century, astrology experienced a resurgence in popularity, particularly in the Western world, where personal horoscopes became widely read in newspapers and magazines. Today, astrologists often blend traditional techniques with modern interpretations, catering to a diverse audience seeking insight and clarity through the stars.
