Where did astrology originate?

Two thousand years ago, Sumerians built a seven-level temple in uruk, Urho. Each level represented a celestial body: the moon, the sun, mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, paving the way for priests to get in touch with the gods. In 2778 BC, the most accurate calendar in ancient Egypt was born, and the Egyptians realized the relationship between the rise of Sirius and the Nile flood. They tried to infer political development from Sirius's position, which may be the oldest constellation prediction. Astrology and astronomy were once closely related. But after the invention of the telescope, the paths of astronomy and astrology were completely separated.

Astrology is also called astrology, astrology and astrology. Predicting human affairs according to astronomical phenomena is a magical method. In the early stage of primitive social and cultural development, because people's knowledge level and productivity are very low, they haven't mastered some laws of natural phenomena, so they linked the good fortune and bad fortune in people's lives with some natural phenomena. Early astrology mostly used astrological observation to predict more important events, such as the victory or defeat of war, the rise and fall of a country or nation, the fate of a king or minister, etc. Later, it gradually expanded to personal destiny and trivial matters in daily life.

China's astrology is called Seven Governments and Four Surplus, which is used to observe the sky. If it is used for astrological divination, it is generally called Lao Guo Xingzong, as well as astrological divination, five-star divination, seven political and four strange divinations.
