Astronomy
From Bahai9
General reference[edit]
"The Tablets of Bahá'u'lláh are many. The precepts and teachings they contain are universal, covering every subject. He has revealed scientific explanations ranging throughout all the realms of human inquiry and investigation--astronomy, biology, medical science, etc....He wrote lengthy Tablets upon civilization, sociology and government. Every subject is considered."
Astronomy is a Science, Astrology is Not[edit]
"Astronomy is a science, astrology does not come under the same category, but we should be patient with people who believe in it, and gradually wean them away from reliance on such things."
- (From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi, dated December 24, 1941, to an individual believer: Ibid., in Lights of Guidance, no. 1746)
