Astrology is a helpful tool for discerning how the energy is flowing in my life. It is also very helpful for gaining insights into areas of personal strengths and weaknesses, so that I can anticipate some of the "bumps" in the road of life.
I use astrology frequently to identify potential strengths and weaknesses in the energy flow around me. But although I find it a very useful tool, I don't consider it to be a major part of my spiritual beliefs... as in, I don't use astrology to connect with divinity in any way. I consider astrology to be more like a barometer that gauges potentials.
There are so many different methods of numerology out there that its difficult to get two people to agree on what any given number might mean. Again, it can be a useful tool, but I don't base major life decisions solely on the answers of the numbers involved. Numerology is merely another gauge of how energy is flowing.
