Astrology should progress, and progress demands adequate adaptation to new conditions as they arise, and the use of new information.

The science of astrology includes all the key understandings of the way astrology works and excludes anything that contradicts them.

Research attempts to get to the truth of a matter.

Unreliable theories are built on sand.

So, instead of blindly accepting beliefs and ancient astrological traditions Hermetic astrology employs statistical research to dispel doubt.

It’s not easy.

The more complex the matter being investigated the less solid the evidence.

And life and human behavior are very complex and variable.

The science of astrology must be evidence-based

The science of astrology must not be based on blind belief or theory.

It must be based upon demonstrated facts.

If new facts are discovered which disprove accepted deductions then these deductions must be changed to conform to the new demonstrated facts.

As a self-science astrology provides advanced knowledge that supports the highest level of personal development and individuals should not be deprived of the opportunity to access the information.

The function of astrological research is to give scientific credibility to the advanced knowledge.

When you’re the custodian of advanced knowledge you’re obliged to inform the public.

You must tell the public the truth.
