Psychological, Humanistic, and Evolutionary Astrology
Modern schools and professional boundaries. This guide gives a reproducible rule, worked example, illustrative near miss, and explicit limits.
Overview
These modern schools use overlapping growth and psychology language but differ in founders, metaphysics, techniques, goals, and professional boundaries. The page separates calculation from interpretation and keeps this worked result conditional: the observation remains client-confirmed context, not a diagnosis or a causal claim from the chart. Verification follows this declared method: Name the exact school and author, quote its stated aim, distinguish reflection from diagnosis, and refer mental-health treatment to licensed care.
