Faith and Science
In a major European magazine, an article was published: “Astrology – yes or no.” Great statistics have been made regarding whether to believe in Astrology or not. To those who ask us if we believe in Astrology, we must answer:
– No! We just watched it!
Astrology is a science and cannot be believed (object of belief) until it is known, observed and experienced.
Just as a child cannot believe in mathematics and needs to gradually be taught this science, we cannot deny the existence and importance of the relationship between man and the cosmos, between Creation and the Creator, until we observe and study it in depth.
We consider it a danger to believe in it (Astrology), because believing makes us easily accept old superstitions or interpretations from a fatalistic point of view, harming the sense of responsibility and self-initiative.
In that statistic concerning Astrology, many men of faith declared that for the convinced Christian, astrology is not necessary, because he finds in his conviction the necessary strength and light.
Other prelates declared that astrology will unite science and faith, leading current materialistic science into the dead end where it entered the age of rationalism.
Faith and science cannot continue to fight each other and walk apart, and only those who have delved into astrology can appreciate their great importance in this union. The scientist who knows astrology will never again awaken, in his youth, doubt. Because, observing the wonderful clock of Creation, he will understand that there is no clock without Clockmaker and that we always need the Supreme Intelligence of the Creator for this clock.
The priest who opens his mind to science and to the knowledge of Astrology will know how to reconnect our hearts to the High, without causing the clashes between scientific studies and dogmatic convictions.
The most beautiful lesson in this regard I received from my mother.
She had wonderful faith. I was educated in this mystical faith, but school, studies, scientific observations created in me the anxiety of knowing and, through Astrology, I came to understand what faith had given me as a child. I knew that my mother had her doubts about my path and when, after years, I visited her for the last time to say goodbye to her in this life, it was in my worries how to talk to her, so that she would understand me, so that she would not live in the last moments of her earthly life with anxiety: Will I find my daughter again?”
So, I tried to adapt myself to her, to her way of understanding and, later, to demonstrate to her that my work as an Astrologer was not useless and “sin”, asking her to give me dates of birth of people she saw grow up and who were convinced of their faith, and I explained to him what the internal struggle was, what the Light they should aim for, what education they should have received.
I can still see her in front of me, after a night of tests and tests with her, with her body already reduced, sitting on the bed, looking at me with bright and luminous eyes: “How wonderful! It’s already a little late! But there’s still time, tell me how I am! “
The next morning it was Christmas. She called me and showed me how all my knowledge was still small, in the face of her faith:
“Now I understand the Christmas story! There are three paths that lead to Jesus. Some come by hearing, they are the shepherds who follow the voice of angels. Others, by feeling: Simon, who felt the presence of the Messiah before him. And the third are the kings, who come for science. I thought science was the wrong way, but I see it leads straight to Him. “
What a profound and important interpretation for all who have the Good Will to understand that even though the paths are different in the different religions, the goal, the end to be reached is the same.
Those who come by hearing speak are those who hear their priests speak and go along meekly without understanding; those who come through the internal voice are the mystics who surrender to what they feel; and the third, those who seek the path through science.
But none of the three must stop in its path, but must go forward to reach the point that the three paths aim at, and where they join.
If there is the saying that “Little philosophy separates us from God and a lot of philosophy leads to Him”, we can also say that “Little science separates us from Knowledge and a lot of science makes us Wise”.
In any of the paths we follow, we need to start from Believing, reach Feeling, and then Knowing.
Those who only believe, have no true faith. He needs to get to feel, live and vibrate what was believed to know about Eternity.
Whoever is based on science needs to live, vibrate and deepen in science, and it will give him the faith and conviction of Eternal Life.
May the reader, through this book, obtain conviction. Astrology is the science explaining Life, feeling and vibration existing in ourselves and around us and making it easier for us to lead.
From blind faith to the knowledge of Eternity and…
From Earth Science to Faith in Eternal Life.
