The astrologer, Jonathan Cainer believes he may have hit on the way astrology works. He cites articles in the science magazines, New Scientist and ScienceNews.org:

Last April, the Genesis spacecraft began its journey home. It took a 3-million-mile detour, swinging past Earth to do a circuit around a distant point before flying back to Earth.

The spacecraft had hopped aboard the interplanetary superhighway, a network of tubes crisscrossing through the solar system. By jumping from one tube to another at the solar system’s version of highway interchanges, a spacecraft can travel vast distances using practically no fuel. Engineers are designing trajectories to send spacecraft coasting along these routes to make voyages that were previously unimaginable.

Edward Belbruno, a mathematician at Princeton University who masterminded the first spacecraft journey along low-fuel highways in 1991, says: “The old way is like using a 747 jet to blast through the sky. The new way is like using a glider plane, which rides the natural currents and eddies of the air.”

Cainer concludes: “Jupiter, apparently, is a ‘central station’ in this system. All this is fact, not fiction… and to me, it is a real revelation. Until now, sceptics have always insisted that no such connections exist… and that this was one reason why there could never be any logical basis for astrology!”

Who would have thought it? A Tube service in outer space. Very supernatural.
