But what did he know compared to Guinness Boy? [emoji23]
Yes, but you recommended a book ABOUT Tesla, not one by him. You do understand the difference, right?
Especially when the book is written by a polymath with an obsession about Freemasons who is, wait for it, also interested in "archaeoastronomy". Just from the blurb it appears he claims Edison didn't invent the lightbulb and has (much like Gavin Menzies' 1421, which was interesting, supposedly scientific and completely wrong, but Menzies did ok out of it) "pieced it together for the very first time".

I’m Aquarius, so I’m naturally very sceptical about astrology!

I thought it utter rubbish until I dated 3 Geminis in a row, all of whom had the mental characteristics that Geminis are known for.

It's bollocks like karma and all the other new age woo, preying on people's doubts and insecurities.
Also if it were true, wouldn't identical twins have the same personalities and traits - they don't

I am a Virgo, my wife is an Aquarius and most astrologers consider this one of the least compatible pairings in the zodiac.
So there might be something in it.

Finding rubbish that supports your prejudices is not 'research'
So Tesla, Gann, and the FED are rubbish? [emoji23][emoji23] That is genuinely hilarious.

Remember, for some reason I read my stars on my birthday one year, to see the following "if it's your birthday today, expect a surprise", no shit Sherlock, never read one since!

Despite the fact if you read many different astrologers they'd all give different predictions on the same day.......
Let's just assume you luck out upon the one that does seem accurate to that day you're having........
Should we really believe that additionally to you, about 1/12th of the population (with each star sign) are all having the exact same day, same issues and same tall dark strangers?
Nonsense.

Oh hi Bully Mod. I suggested that book because I believe it gives good insight into Tesla’s thinking but there are literally 1000s of others you could choose.
Here’s a list of other Tesla books you could try, give some a go it really is fascinating stuff if you don’t know much about one of the greatest inventors of all time and the man that gave a blueprint for WiFi and smartphones over 100 years ago.

This is a super short insight into the mans life but really only scratched the surface.

If you do choose to actually engage in any of this rich information then you will certainly come to the conclusion that energy, vibration, and frequency and their role in all life are far from the mumbo Jumbo that you purported in your attempt to demean me earlier in the thread.
I’m not going to feed your bully ego any longer on this thread. Like always I’ve provided plenty of information to support my position. Up to you if you allow yourself to explore. Adios amigo.

Sorry, is this thread called "what's your attitude to Astrology?" or "the life and times of Nikola Tesla"? Can you give us mere simpletons a paragraph or two backed up with meta studies showing exactly how Tesla proves Astrology isn't bollocks? Or is that your final flounce.
It's intresting that you've moved on from your book recommendation already. Robert Lomas, the author has "attracted a great deal of criticism and even outrage" for his writing on Freemasonary whilst his co-authoured Book of Hiram has been described as "An invention by the highly imaginative authors ... which has no historical validity". I wonder if he did the same with Tesla as confirmation bias of his pro astrology position? Maybe you are as well

This reminds me of the Steve Wright Down the Pan Daleks. For those who don’t know, this was a sketch about the Daleks having to find alternative jobs after Doctor Who ended. In one sketch they became mystics and read out messages from beyond the grave....things like “John, the milk is in the fridge”.

Arguably, he didn't. The lightbulb had been invented by others long before, but Edison tweaked it to be (more) reliable and mass-producible.
Astronomy? Pretty cool. New place has dark skies, so have been researching telescopes; think I've selected one.
Astrology? Utter bobbins.

It's all about as believable as healing crystals, dream catchers and psychics.
