How does retrograde motion happen? Why is it impossible?
Interesting. Is retrograde motion the reason why astrology is still somewhat popular today?
Yes, that is one of the reasons. Astrology uses the movement of celestial bodies, including retrograde motion, to predict events and personality traits based on their alignment at a person's birth. However, modern science does not support the validity of astrology as a credible way of predicting or explaining events.
