People are quick to dismiss astrology, but the last time Pluto entered Aquarius (which will happen for the next 20 years starting in Dec) we had the Industrial Revolution. The time before that we had the Scientific Revolution. Things are right on track with this discovery.
- alexb_ 3y agoCorrelation is not causation. Why would the position of the planets have anything to do with the discovery of revolutionary technology?
- sibeliuss 3y agoThat's a great question that nobody knows the answer to. Again, the last time this planet was positioned as such radical technological world-changing innovation happened (Industrial Revolution). Rewind a few hundred years, and we see it happen again (Scientific Revolution). Another revolution is incoming.
- alexb_ 3y agoI doubt I'm going to convince you of anything. But it is nonsensical to think that the position of the planets have any effect on people. You see a correlation in two data points and are extrapolating it, despite having no explanation as to why that would be the case. If you have an explanation as to why the position of Pluto would affect the development of technology, I would love to hear it.

You could find patterns like “when wave B intersects wave K, there’s a global pandemic within 5 years”! https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious-correlations https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious-correlations
