1333attracted toward other objects, due to a force called gravitation. This includes everything from subatomic particlesto massive stars and planets. The formula given for the gravitational force between two objects is F = GMm/R²where F is the force between the two objects, M is the mass of one object, m is mass of the other object, R is thedistance between the centers of the two objects and G is an universal constant.The scientists argue that such a force between Earth and other planets is too miniscule to affect people and thingson earth. Mentioned below are some issues regarding the arguments posed by the scientific community.1) Neither the astrological community nor any known astrological text has laid claim to the fact that thegravitational forces between the planets govern human life.2) The quality of the gravitational forces between Mars and Earth and Jupiter and Earth (according toaccepted norms of physics) is the same, irrespective of the planets involved. However, in astrology theseplanets and the energies associated with them are given completely diverse domains. Therefore, how canthe force or forces be gravity?3) To make a bold statement, the scientific community has ignored a few scientific facts. The Universedoesn’t collapse on itself due to the presence of dark matter [and dark energy], a principle which is stillnot completely understood by scientists. Dark matter plays a very significant role in the theory ofgravitational forces.4) It is not entirely true that physical planetary forces have no effect at all on life on Earth.On the last point let me elaborate a little. In all astrological texts, Jupiter is has the status of a King or God. InVedic Astrology, Jupiter is called “Dev Guru”, the Guru of the Devas and is considered a natural benefic planet.In the example below, modern science reinforces the astrological belief regarding Jupiter’s status as a beneficplanet without causing any contradiction.This image above, taken on January 4 and 5, 2001, by the ion and neutral mass spectrometer instrument on theCassini spacecraft, makes the huge magnetosphere surrounding Jupiter visible in a way no instrument on anyprevious spacecraft has been able to do.
