astrology

This term describes a belief system that links the movements of celestial bodies to earthly events and human personality. It is distinct from astronomy, which is the scientific study of the universe; astrology is generally categorized as a pseudoscience or a divination practice. As an uncountable noun, it refers to the field of study or the practice as a whole. It does not have a plural form in standard usage, as it represents a singular conceptual discipline rather than a countable object.
