The Astrology of Man-Made Sattelites?
I saw this post, and it got me thinking about the viability and the significance of man-made sattelites as astrological bodies. A few things I’d consider when understanding their potential roles:
- Their speed/proximity to Earth: the moon is the fastest moving planet in astrology, but man-made satellites largely revolve much faster, about 16 times a day at low Earth orbit, though obviously less for those that are further away. Even the angles rotate through a chart around once a day. What’s the significance of an object that moves so quickly and so closely to the planet?
- Their purpose(s): in pragmatic terms, what were they created for, and what do they do? Also the strength of the technologies they use, when they were created, what companies or infrastructure on Earth benefits from/relies on them, etc.
- (this is a bit more out there) the “Gods” they represent: astrological bodies are often tied to specific deities or figures in different religions. Assuming satellites reflect a new human-made age, I could see a future (albeit a pretty terrifying one) where AI reached AGI, and some worship them as some kind of figurehead, as some freaks and tech oligarchs already do. Obviously not as clear cut, considering AI isn’t localized in satellites, nor is there a 1-to-1 correlation between satellites and specific AI models, let alone tech companies that own them and the data centers, but in a similar vein, asteroids aren’t all seen as equally important, and perhaps some satellites are more relevant to that question than others.
Bear in mind, this is a thought exercise. Just wanted to see what others’ thoughts on this might be, if there’s a world where astrology takes man-made satellites into consideration
