Astrology is a language unto itself. If you've ever listened to two astrologers talk to each other it sounds like a quarterback calling plays in a huddle. But underneath all the technical debate there's one question that hits everybody — are things in your birth chart fated or do you have free will to change the outcome? God knew Kobe was going to die in that helicopter. Was there anything he could have done differently? Someone had to override the grounded helicopters and say we going. Think about that. Now say both words out loud. Fated. Free will. One of those feels heavier than the other. Paul is a Gemini Rising — in true twin form he thinks both are right. With a caveat.
Takeaways:
- The debate between fate and free will is one of the oldest and most contested questions in astrology
- Eastern astrology tends to lean toward fate Western astrology tends to lean toward free will
- If everything is fated it raises uncomfortable questions about why bad things happen to good people
- Free will in one word means choice — and the energy of that word feels different than fate when you say it out loud
- A Gemini Rising sees both sides — the twins don't pick one they hold both simultaneously
- The Kobe example shows how fate and free will can exist in the same moment — something was written but someone still had to make a choice
