Astrologers, throughout history and in modern times, would agree that time is deeply relevant to the soul’s destiny in the world. They look at the movement of the heavenly bodies and interpret the influence for inhabitants of this earthly plane. The rabbis have never denied the validity of this, but have said that the destiny of Israel, like that of our father Abraham, is above the stars. However, while the rabbis warn us not to look to predictions of the future, they do acknowledge an understanding of astrological influence on one’s personality. This can be further understood by looking at the portion of the Torah that is read for the week of one’s birth, and more specifically, on the birthday itself.
