Has there been any extensive research into tropical and/or sidereal astrology?

I tentatively believe in astrology but I struggle to defend it because a lot of it seems based upon interpretation - this could lead to confirmation bias. I see this online where both a Western and Vedic astrologer would interpret a celebrity’s chart with different planetary positions and both would believe that their interpretations fit with the celebrity’s life experiences.

This has always bothered me. I did a quick search online for actual indepth research into astrology but it came up with poorly written articles debunking astrology and one study into the “Mars Effect”. I understand that the scientific community rejects astrology but it’s hard to believe that within the thousands of astrologers we have, nobody has carried out a large scale research study to see if astrological interpretations actually match life experiences (tropical vs sidereal).

Am I being ignorant or am I missing major research that has been done?

Is the via combusta really Scorpio?

My ascendent is - according to birth certificate time - 27 degrees Libra. But I was just playing around with a rectification app and realized that if I didn't know the exact time, I'd definitely rectify it to 15 minutes later. Because when it has you match Libra vs Scorpio type traits, I come out more definitely Scorpio. Although I have usually been considered "pretty" and have codependent keeping the peace traits, I am much more on the side of "tense", "excessive seriousness", often told I have a hypnotic gaze and voice, obsessed with sex, spirituality, and power, as well as a life story sadly involving poverty, loneliness, extreme situations, persecution by authorities, etc Is this just normal for it being in the Via Combusta? Or maybe the BC is wrong? I also have a placement of Uranus in Scorpio in the 1rst House so maybe that's it, although I thought sign didn't matter so much for outer planets. submitted by /u/pilgrim_dragon_g
