A Scientific Test of Indian Astrology (Vedic Astrology)

Astrology has been a major part of Indian Culture. The older generation uses astrology for everything - marriages, buying houses, getting jobs etc. And it's sad to see millennials also fall into a similar trap. In this video, I look at the principles behind astrology, scientific tests on astrology, and why believing in Astrology is harmful.

Corrections
I spelled arbitrary* wrong around the 5-minute mark.
The tenets of vedic astrology and rashis migrated to india from greece. But there has been a tradition of nakshatras which were mentioned in ramayana and mahabharata.
If you spot something, let me know and I'll add them here.
