Symbolic-Informational Correspondence: Reconstructing Astrology as a Bounded Taxonomy of Celestial Rhythm and Consciousness

Abstract This paper reconstructs astrology as a bounded symbolic taxonomy of celestial rhythm, temporal meaning, and conscious orientation. The dominant modern critique usually evaluates astrology as if its only possible form were deterministic planetary causation or predictive personality diagnosis. That critique is justified against many popular and fatalistic claims, but it does not exhaust astrology as a historical system of symbolic classification. The central question is therefore not whether astrology is true as mechanical prediction, but what kind of object astrology becomes when reconstructed as a symbolic-informational model of correspondence. The paper uses conceptual reconstruction to distinguish physical causation, biological rhythm, symbolic mediation, psychological orientation, cultural interpretation, and conscious meaning-integration. It draws on information theory, systems theory, semiotics, history of science, chronobiology, psychology of subjective validation, and philosophy of causation. The Moon is used as a limited empirical entry point because it provides a clear example of celestial-terrestrial rhythm through tides, illumination, calendars, and biological timing, while the literature on human lunar effects remains mixed. Quantum nonlocality is mentioned only to clarify that classical local realism is not the final criterion for every form of relation or correlation; it has no evidential or mechanistic role in the model. The result is not a validation of astrology as prediction, but a disciplined reconstruction of astrology as a bounded symbolic taxonomy whose categories can be historically, semiotically, psychologically, and selectively empirically examined.
