Some people really don’t like astrology because they think it isn’t scientific enough.
Astrology is about how time actually feels to a person, and how it moves in steady and predictable ways and cycles. It’s a complex and nuanced system mostly invented to describe things, including seasons. It’s the foundations of astronomy, it’s geometry, it’s art.
Some people don’t like astrology because they think it’s against their religion.
Most religions have had highly respected and influential adherents who were astrologers. For example, astrologers of faith have often figured largely in Christendom. Most Christian royal courts have had respected astrologers. There was a period of time in Britain and North America called the First Great Awakening (18th Century) when self-published religious philosophers in some regions came out against astrology. It was controversial to demonize it at the time, and there wasn’t a very clear reason for it. Throughout history many people have thought of astrology as devout observation of God’s Creation.
