This DVD movie is actually a narration by Rick Levine on the scientific basis of astrology and its relationship with quantum theories and on astrological cycles as related to history.
Rick Levine is a very good astrologer and a great teacher. He explains his vision on astrology in this DVD movie and he takes a step-by-step, a very logical approach to astrology, spiced up with abundant examples from the real life, offering a clear picture of what astrology really is.
I really like his modern view of astrology, adapted to scientific advances of the last 100 years. This is the kind of movie about astrology one could show to astrology skeptic friends.
For instance, Rick starts off by saying he would reply to someone stating that he/she doesn't believe in astrology that he doesn't believe in astrology either, that is he doesn't believe in the astrology the other person doesn't believe in.
Astronomy is about naming the stars, astrology is about the stars' meaning. Astronomy is the glove; astrology is the living hand inside the glove.
Rick Levine explains the astrological influences as having a kind of electromagnetic origin, just of an extremely low frequency, that cannot be measured by current instruments. The example used was Saturn, who performs only about three cycles per century.
Another issue brought up was the planets from the perspective of quantum particle-wave duality. The wave-particle duality is well known in modern physics and this concept is slowly infiltrating other areas of human knowledge. Are planets only particles or they may manifest as waves as well?
Our instrument in astrology is the horo-scope (horo = hour, time), just as in other areas of knowledge scientists use teles-scopes, micro-scopes and so on. These tools are "scopes", investigating devices. So, a horoscope is a tool used for studying the qualities of time.
Then, Rick takes a quite long and thorough look back to history through the lens of astrology, giving numerous examples of events in correlation with major astrological cycles, such as Saturn-Pluto cycle or Uranus-Neptune cycle.
The DVD ends alertly, with Rick offering his conclusions and prospective vision on astrology's place in our lives and within the universe, transmitting along with information also his love and excitement about this subject.
As a conclusion, this DVD is well worth to watch. Whatever your involvement in astrology, you'll love it.
P.S. About the Saturn - Pluto cycles: I've seen similar examples before in the work of a Spanish programmer and astrologer Javier Reinoso, author of a complex astrology program, named Zodiac. You may be interested in his work as well, so check out his website too: www.astrologywww.com.
