Sometimes these presentations are overt and sometimes more subtle. The scientist draws a clear fence around the rational sciences and the superstitions of astrology. The effect of this is to distinguish the greatness of real astrologers from the rabble of the deluded astrologers. Skeptics of astrology and those who represent the scientific community sometimes trivialize Kepler's involvement in astrology. Whether Kepler's practice of astrology was an expression of his genuine interest in astrology and a belief in astrological ideas is much more than a minor footnote in history. Who is correct? Is the historical evidence clear? WHY IT MATTERS? Others may argue that Kepler practiced astrology but a radically different kind of astrology than most astrologers and that Kepler did not endorse the majority of astrological concepts. Some claim that Kepler was an expert in the classical methods of astrology and was fully an astrologer. Some claim that he did it in order to survive he needed the money. Different arguments have been presented as to why Kepler practiced astrology. Kepler's 3 laws of planetary motion are sometimes cited as a mark a transition to a scientific age where mathematics combines with careful observations to explain the rational basis of a great many things that previously were regarded as arbitrary or the will of the gods. Johannes Kepler is one of the greatest scientists of all time.
