Why astrologers never adopted this radical new chart I have no idea, but I wish someone would research it and tell me. Astronomers on the other hand can use both the geocentric and heliocentric charts, giving them the ability to also look at how the whole solar system functions, as it actually is, with the Sun at the center, and the other planets orbiting the Sun.

Astrologers on the other hand have chosen to limit themselves only to the earth-centered point of view, and the standard natal chart wheel used by modern astrologers is basically a snapshot of the solar system from the earth's position embedded deep within that system. Using the two perspectives (geo and helio), astronomers can land a spaceship on the Earth or send one orbiting the Sun. In the modern world, astrologers and astronomers are not usually on friendly terms, mostly due to the astronomer's attitude toward astrology. The astrologers continued to use only the geocentric (earth-centered) perspective, and retained the cultural tradition, which they have done up to the present day. But from the time of Copernicus onward, astrologers and astronomers each went different ways, the astronomers using both the traditional geocentric chart, but also adopting the newly discovered heliocentric perspective, and gradually forgetting the cultural side of their science. Up to that point astronomy and astrology was pretty much the same thing, and astrology was considered as the cultural side of astronomy, in that astronomers were for the most part also astrologers. The story of StarTypes actually starts some 400 years ago when Copernicus pointed out to the world that in fact the Sun does not orbit the Earth as everyone had always thought, but just the other way around: the Earth orbits the Sun.
