This book explores the intersections of astrology, colonialism, and capitalism, arguing that astrological interpretations have been shaped by power dynamics and economic exploitation. It examines how astrological knowledge has been used to justify oppression and inequality, and offers a postcolonial perspective that centers the experiences of marginalized communities. The author draws on multiple disciplines, including astrology, history, sociology, and political economy, to provide a nuanced understanding of the ways in which astrology has been used as a tool of both oppression and liberation. This book challenges traditional astrological practices and provides a framework for a more just and equitable approach to astrology.
